Dinti Batstone (18 February) is absolutely right that the case to tackle discrimination is strengthened by remembering that we all lose out when discrimination occurs.
If we miss out on some of the country’s best talent in Parliament, or brightest at the top of our legal system or smartest running our largest firms then it isn’t just those discriminated against who lose out. We all lose out from having a worse political system, an inferior legal system and a less healthy economy.
