  1. "A senior #Labour #MP has warned that #Jews and #Sikhs are repeatedly missing from vital datasets that shape #publicservice decisions, as a government review into #ethnic classification remains ongoing.

    She has previously been backed in her campaign for public bodies to to record Sikhs and Jews as ethnic groups by the #BoardofDeputies.
