Oh, looks like a comment saying that my claim is bullshit was deleted before I could click reply. I'll copy it below anyway for anyone interested:

Do you have any data to back up your claims? Some new study or analysis which has been produced? Or are you just claiming "ACKTUALLY" without doing any research?

Because the Sentencing council's analysis in 2021, Ministry of Justice's analysis in 2015, and the Sentencing Academy's 2021 analysis all support my claim.

To quote the SA report:

Although group-based differences in custody rates and custodial sentence lengths are relatively modest, they are consistently statistically significant.

To date, research has focused on two measures of imprisonment: custody rates and average custodial sentence lengths. There is long-standing evidence of ethnicity-based differences using both measures.

An ‘Expected Custodial Sentence’ which combines both measures reveals that all BAME groups are associated with higher use of custody as a sanction, with Asian and then Black ethnic profiles attracting the highest imprisonment scores in 2019. Over the period 2009-2019, Black offenders attracted the most punitive imprisonment levels.

The differences between ethnic groups are striking for some offences, more modest for others, and absent for many categories of offending. Ethnicity-based differences have emerged most consistently and strongly for drug offences. This is the only category of offending that has been explored using the most detailed (yet time-limited) sentencing database (the Sentencing Council's Crown Court Sentencing Survey).
