The GLA has just recently carried out a pretty thorough best-value review of equalities for all. But when you look at the recommendations in the improvement plan, it says the GLA group adopts six high-level equality categories for service and employment purposes, Gender, Race, Sexuality, Disability, Age and Faith. There are a lot of people on low incomes, disadvantaged people, who are not covered by any of those six categories. And I wonder why they have been left out? Why, poor, white, working class men have been left out of the equalities approach of the GLA?
