Buckingham Palace barred ethnic minorities from office jobs during the 1960s, the Guardian newspaper reported, citing documents in the United Kingdom's National Archives.
The palace replied forcefully to the historical allegations, stressing that the queen and her household comply "in principle and in practice" with anti-discrimination legislation. "Claims based on a second-hand account of conversations from over 50 years ago should not be used to draw or infer conclusions about modern-day events or operations," a palace spokesman said, speaking on the customary condition of anonymity.More Related News
