You've clearly never gone through a sourcing, screening, shortlisting and then interviewing process to hire people. There are very clearly "the best people for the job" and their religion, sex, race, sexual preferences etc. should not be factors in making the final decision. If they are, you end up in Disney's current predicament. https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2025/03/25/yes-snow-white-is-bombing-at-the-box-office/

You guys never learn. 😄

Nonsense? I guess that's why they dropped all the charges against her? https://www.theguardian.com/media/2024/nov/21/essex-police-drop-allison-pearson-case-after-cps-advice

Don't worry, our fearless leader Keir Rodney Starmer is going to "smash the gangs". He said so, therefore it must be true. He never goes back on his word. 😄

You seem to be confusing two different issues. There's a thread about that if you'd like to vent your anger at Trump though.

They need to be very careful. Using the courts to remove political figures in order to affect the outcome of Democratic elections failed in America, fortunately with Trump still emerging from the shameful kangaroo courts to be victorious via the ballot box. History tells us the reaction in France could be a lot less peaceful.

They really picked on the wrong people this time. Maxie Allen is an ex school governor and now a broadcast journalist and radio producer. A very intelligent and eloquent man. He's been very calm and very impressive on the multiple interviews he has done to highlight the descent of Britain into a police state. They really need to select their victims of intimidation into silence more carefully.

Which Western right wing governments are sending squads of thought police to arrest people for Wrongthink/Wrongspeak made during private communications?

So it's not just disabled adults that Labour's misguided policies are negatively affecting, it's also disabled children. Why am I not surprised?

Didn't mean to offend you. Still, if the shoe fits...

Actually I was highlighting by way of comparison the beauty of this black, fearless, female leader of the charity. Some people just see the negative in everything.

More likely a loony hand wringing Liberal leftist wanting to silence any criticism with a steel boot on the throat.

As opposed to hiring the best people for the job irrespective of their immutable characteristics. I feel bad for the thousands of workers who will get laid off to pay for the repeated failures. I wonder if Disney will eliminate people based on their race and gender in the same way as they hire them? https://www.aol.com/news/disney-begins-second-round-layoffs-130552294.html

A company discriminating against potential job candidates based on their sex or race is very much the government's business.

Yes, he certainly ensured he didn't have much of a hand when he and his future cabinet called the future POTUS a rascist KKK Nazi sympathizer. DEI Lammy isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. He has the foresight of a bat wearing a Kevlar sleep mask.

No you didn't.

So why introduce it into the conversation?

Highly unlikely. So far they've gone after farmers, pensioners and the disabled. Labour are turning out to be more Tory than the Tories.

They certainly won't benefit from the grooming gangs moving into their communities. Or the subsequent coverups. Or the light sentences given to the perpetrators under the new 2 tier sentencing guidelines.

But the Republicans have a plan. The Dems had DEI Harris. Actually I'm grateful for their incompetence, if the Dems had a decent candidate they might have beaten Trump. Thanks Kamala. I'm unburdened.

I suspect they are only objecting because Hamas are getting their butts handed to them by Israel. If Hamas were having more success in their attempts to eliminate Israel I doubt they'd be protesting.

Nah - she's got much nicer skin than Rachel.

The only good thing to come of all this was that the Woke idiot Welby had to resign. Good riddance. Hopefully legal action is taken against him.

The UK really are the mugs of the world. Leaving was the best thing I ever did.

Go Woke, Go Broke. Disney's latest flop Snow 'Off' White proves just that. It's great to see. Amusing that a company that loves DEI so much found dwarves so repulsive that they refused to hire them and used CGI instead. "Weird? Weird". Any company that hires Zegler in a lead role deserves to lose every cent they wasted on this disastrous project.
