Three white police officers have won a discrimination case after a judge ruled that they lost out on a promotion because of their race.
Detective Inspector Phillip Turner-Robson, Inspector Graham Horton and custody inspector Kirsteen Bishop claimed that Thames Valley Police ‘directly discriminated’ against them in an attempt to improve diversity amongst staff.
