The Split: Season 2

2x01 Episode 1

Ok, that woman complains that minority background baristers only make up 12.7%.

I could only find numbers for 2011 within a few minutes.
But back the:
"According to the Office for National Statistics, there were approximately 64.6 million people living in the UK in mid-2014. Of these, 56.2 million (87.2 per cent) were White British."

Which means that 12.8% were anything other than "White British".
Unless there was a massive change within 10 years (which is possible), I would argue that 12.7% is actually quite close to 12.8%
Especially since Barristers (as far as I know) don't make up a huge part of the UK populous.

Did they just copy this off some US Script?
Maybe read a census some time before complaining?
