A leader of a new political party inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement has called for a 'race offenders' register' that would see people barred from jobs based on having been accused of 'micro-aggressions' in the workplace. The 26-year-old, from the Taking the Initiative Party (TTIP) said the racial offenders list would be 'similar' to the sex offenders' register - which is used to bar paedophiles from professions like teaching. 'It's similar to the sex offenders register,' she told MailOnline. The Taking the Initiative Party was formed in summer in the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests. AdvertisementThe organisation previously called itself the first 'black-led' political party in the UK, although Ms Johnson now insists it is merely 'black founded'.
