Thumbs down Cameron plans 'positive action' to woo ethnic minorities

David Cameron tonight took his drive to bring ethnic minorities into the Tory party to a new level by backing a programme of "positive action".
The Conservative leader insisted that it was not enough to have an "open door" policy, and he wanted to offer underrepresented groups a "genuine invitation to come in".
In a speech to the Ethnic Media Conference in central London, Mr Cameron announced plans to monitor the progress of people from minorities within the party, a move which he admitted would make some members "uneasy".
He also said that the Conservatives would be introducing an annual internship programme for ethnic minorities, and holding a series of recruiting "road shows" in major cities to get people involved at all levels.
