People seem to make it into victimhood, like the first reply in this thread.
Fact is, the reason why there are mainly white and old magistrates is the same reason why older white men occupy high positions in certain lucrative industries and occupy the large portion of the board in large firms. These are all positions that require training, experience and a proven background (often decades of proof for other jobs). So if we turn back time by decades to when these people were being educated and were young, we will find that society and happenstance generally was biased towards the white man and did favour that demographic if slightly in some ways. Women were encouraged to do 'women's jobs' and male members of non working class families were sent to higher education. These families were largely white, as positions of power held by their parents were almost entirely held by white men decades prior to that, when times were not just a little racist but far more open in its discrimination towards other races.
Let us also not forget the ratio of white people to minorities back then were higher and that will still effect us now, as it is those experienced people that end up in the higher positions that people moan they dont have now because of xxx or yyy.
These articles are often written with the intent to shock readers and i pay no mind to them. The young people of the multicultural society we live in today will eventually gain the experience to reach these positions. If 20 or 30 years down the line the positions were still 89% white men, then i would raise the questions why but filling in the tick boxes for the sake of 'quality' is stupid.
