“if you’re going to attach someone’s name to these incidents, then you better be sure that there’s a good reason for doing that … Because five years down the line, when they apply for a job, they might not get it. And that might be as a result of a … non-crime hate incident recorded against their name that was entirely baseless, entirely motivated by spite or misunderstanding or whatever”.
