  To the best of my knowledge, some mainstream parties in Britain have been toysing with the idea of proposing a minimum number of ethnic minority candidates at the general elections, candidates who belong specifically to an ethnic minority, using the terminology supplied by the authors of the idea, which has received press coverage.
  It's a recipee for ethnic enclaves, but somehow seems to me unconstitutional.
  The temptation to attract votes in certain areas where a high number of people live who consider themselves ethically different has no doubt played a role in this idea.
  Another factor that should be mentioned on this thread is that many languages are often used - apart from English and Welsh - for the public to understand what's being proposed in writing, such as a neighbourhood forum leaflet which was distributed months back in where I live, written in two languages.
  I think this thing about many languages was actually mentioned on a thread the other day.
