Green Party equalities and diversity officer launches crowdfund to take party to court over alleged racism

A GREEN PARTY equalities and diversity officer launched a fundraiser today to take the party to court for alleged racial discrimination and victimisation.

Rashid Nix said that he experienced several years of “micro-racism” and that the “situation came to a head” last year when he applied for a campaign manager position.

The job was on the Greens’ team for the 2020 Greater London Authority elections, now suspended due to coronavirus.
