As a woman scientist of colour, I feel that we cannot let this pass without condemning it. It brings the whole tone of our society down with its nasty stereotyping.

I would be shocked, but it's the Daily Mail. Utterly unacceptable.

A trite comment made by the Daily Mail who should show evidence for their allegations or apologise.

The 'ladies' are much better scientists and academics than the 'gentleman' is a diarist, journalist, or writer. Sounds like 'Peiris envy' from someone who can't think. So diversity equals dumbing-down and wheeling out tinted women? I guess UCL appointed them for the same reason. Who's next, then, the Deputy Governor of the Bank of England? Nice one, Ephraim Van Winkle. Go back to bed, man.

Disgraceful, DM. Please educate yourselves into the second half of the C20 at least.
