"I am a tolerant white person who has lived in Bristol for 27 years. I am currently searching for a job and stumbled across a job advertisement on Bristol City Council's website that I see as totally racist. I feel the job itself would be an excellent opportunity for me to make use of the skills and qualifications that I have acquired. However, being white I am totally excluded from applying for the post."
