Maybe Peds is unhappy with the fact they'll have to employ the best person for the job, instead of box ticking his way up the corporate ladder ?.

 

Oh no a return to common sense, two biological genders with everything else being irrelevant, except abilities/experience and qualification.

No, in the UK that would still be religious discrimination, Jesus was a hippy, basis of a couple of religious books.

Gotcha, same reason I'm not allowed to frown upon unwed teenage mothers just incase it's the next baby jebus 👍

But back on topic, the equal opportunities acts - and similar around the world are to stop basic discriminations, basic racism and to allow all to have a fair crack at the whip, a fair chance at getting any job.. This is a good thing. Larger companies will have a HR department monitoring these things and should be quick to ask hiring managers for example "Why do you only hire white men"... 60 years of US protection for workers and in all those 60 years no one has been shouting that it is unfair... then up steps Trump, a rash swish of the pen and womens rights have gone back to last century (along with the inferred allowable racism that you can scrap all CVs from other races, only interviewing your own (which of course favours the white man)).

 

Discrimination is still discrimination whichever way it goes, but... your workforce should be representative of the local employee pool for the roles: So perhaps in Tree surgery and arboculture, fewer women wanting this career so you'd expect fewer in the workforce.. but they should get an even crack at it if they do apply for roles, and opposite to that, office workers should see a 50-50 mix men-women and an ethnic blend close to the local workforce - in Aberdeen for example, might be 95% white, in London might be 80% white. Fair an even for all. The law -was- there to help ensure this. It was a good thing.

That's not what he has done at all!.

 

All he's effectively said is their are two biological sex's and you can't use diversity targets/metrics as a way to employ people.

 

Take the BBC/RAF as examples here, straight and white back of the line or excluded.

 

Women/gay/trans/ethnicity other than white and your top of the pile.

 

You're confusing equality ie all employment pre 2005, to Blair/Biden BS where you have to tell them how special you are because you like men or dressing up as a manga character and say you're non binary.

 

I don't care where you put it, neither does trump, it's this woop doo bs I don't talk about my sex life so why should YOU need to and be celebrated as proud etc.

 

80% white in London, haha hackney was like 20 according to stats I heard online.

It was the 1965 discrimination bill he scrapped. Nothing to do with diversity targets, just plain scrapping the legal protections of that.

Thing is tho all the recent stuff has gone down the dei bs, it's virtue signalling and nothing more.

 

Look at corporate guff from usa companies like deere about trans.

Oh we'll pay for the surgery but won't give you medical care for everyone else because it's some DEI accreditation.

 

Personally I'm of the don't ask don't tell mindset, if it's not illegal I don't care.

Will be inteteresting how the DEI stuff goes ahead some  some coporates might want the best cadidates who make them the most money not a  white male bias.

The DEI business case is clear: companies that prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion achieve stronger performance and growth.

Scrapping DEI will harm there profits.

 

But also they might not want to annoy Trump...see how many have done a complete 360 on there views on him.

From what I've seen of that sort of overload of dei, the only ones extolling and implementing that have seen a drop in profits like falling off a cliff.

 

They definitely annoyed a lot of people with the dei drag queen story hour too.

 

Plenty of the stuff online, they financially rates business using it. Wickes got in the hole due to him blaming white males, so sales flat lined.
