For all you statistics nerds out there...did you know that 94.9% of UK judges are white British? Did you know that there is only 1 female judge in the Supreme court? All the rest are white males. Every single Head of Division in the UK justice system is a white male. Out of 12 Supreme Court judges, 10 of them attended Oxbridge universities. As someone who herself was privately educated and has been used to this kind of exclusivity throughout my education, these statistics are unsurprising. People see respectable degrees at traditional universities as the pursuit of an honourable, noble path in life but there is nothing honourable about these statistics. They are boring, elitist and frankly embarrassing.
