"Dr Campbell is chairman of the National Independent Advisory Group on Criminal Use of Firearms, which advises the Home Office and the security services. He told the BBC: 'We have clear evidence of organisations which used to be funded and have delivered on outcomes but have suddenly not been supported. And we have to ask the question whether there seems to be an acceptance that if another black youth is killed they are just another one that we don't have to worry about.' … He said there was hard evidence that funding to community groups in the Birmingham area had been cut, and that this situation was reflected nationwide. … Dr Campbell said the murder of 11-year-old Rhys Jones a year ago demonstrated that crimes against white youths received more attention from the Government and media."
