A Judiciary for the 21st Century

Baroness Prosser looked back at the battle for equal pay and the evolution of the Equalities and Human Rights Commission, and looked forward to the growing diversity of the nation.

“We know that the advance towards diversity will never happen at the pace we would all like it to. And my years in the equalities world have taught me the simple formula: for every step you want to take, take two. Push twice as hard, be twice as ambitious and twice as radical. That way, progress might just start to increase at an acceptable pace.”
