They're both talking out of their hats.

To the guy who's wishing for Apartheid in the UK - you're being ridiculous. What, we're going to segregate off areas Bradford and Brixton for Asian and Black British citizens, and declare Oxfordshire to be a whites only zone? How would that solve anything? Daft.

As for racism in Britain, plainly it's absurd to say that there is no "race" in Britain. Clearly there is, and not just in the police force. However, Britain overall is no more or less racist than anywhere else.

And Avatar, I'm a "lower class" Briton; most of us actually don't think that racism "doesn't count" just because we don't have Apartheid. Most of us dislike racism just as much as upper class English people and South African liberals do.
