As far as being a member of an organisation which openly espouses racist views.....that I think is incompatible with being a policeman. That said, I do find myself agreeing with some of what Maggie is saying here. There is a danger in legislating against certain ways of thinking.

In the UK we have a law against incitement to racial hatred. Calling someone a 'paki' is not illegal. Standing up in a public meeting and saying Pakis are a cancer on society which should be cut out is.
