Tensions Rise as UK Police Officers Are Taught About ‘White Privilege’ in Equity Training

[Chomper Higgot]

If you are a white British or American male and life’s not giving you the rewards you believe are your birthright, it’s not because some woman/immigrant/non white/LGBTQ or any other minority person robbed you of your life’s chances.

 

You need to look a bit closer to home.

This doesn't support your claim that "If candidates for office, jobs etc were selected on merit alone, those holding these posts would be a ratio of gender, social class and race in proportion to the mix of these within the general population.".  Not even slightly.

 

Why do you think it does?

Got it, so I presume you are referring to the many police officers in the topic who demanded disciplinary action against leadership figures responsible for the positive discrimination, are all wrong and need to look closer to home. Why? Why are you cancelling out their claims?

Nobody is making that claim, nor is that the topic of this thread.  Pure strawmaning because you have no way of responding.  🙄

Thank you for providing such an excellent example of gaslighting.

You call an opinion piece from the US that's 8 months old and has no equivalence to the UK, evidence? Interesting, I can only assume you're on a different topic entirely

 

The guy's totally reaching (and failing), as he generally does.  He made a statement about how races should be represented proportionately in jobs, then backed that claim up with an article about how White men aren't discriminated against in hiring practices as much as they think.  Literally no connection whatsoever.

 

It's kind of sad.

That’s new!

 

Am I wrong?  Re-read your posts and you'll see that it is an accurate description of you.

 

You could always provide some evidence for your wild claims and prove me wrong.  🤷‍♂️

A very sad day for the good folks of the UK. A once great nation has fallen to the likes of the left wing woke socialist globalists. But there is hope, like the United States, the good folks of the UK should cast off the binds of the socialist Labour Party and elect a true leader like President Trump. Make the UK Great Again.

What utter garbage; your claim assumes that all people regardless of gender, class, or race, have equal abilities and equal qualifications for any given job. Not only is that preposterous, but not an equal percentage of people even want the same jobs or careers. In the UK for an example, 89% of nurses are female.

 

Your woke ideologies have caused you to post some absurd comments, but this one is the biscuit taker.

All appointments in all professions should be on MERIT alone.

 

If 'minorities' are under represented, then they have to try harder.

 

Merit the only criteria please . . .

 

If positions were based on merit, Starmer and his cronies would never be considered.

Interesting data.

This seems to be concerned mostly with the private sector.

What about jobs in government agencies?

[TorquayFan]

Photo I ticked the 'confused' tab for you because your post was odd.

 

I hold no brief for Starmer but he was 'Director of Public Prosecutions' before he entered politics. He reached the pinnacle in his legal career and is now PM.

 

I wonder what the pinnacle of your career was ?

 

Merit should be the only criteria . . .

@Jeff the Chef you may like contravening forum rules as you have admitted there and find it entertaining however I can advice you the next time will have consequences

What he has posted is off topic and therefore irrelevant; the link is all about the US, and the topic is about the UK

Sadly, there is no 'White Knight" (my emphasis on colour) to save the UK.  Personally, I hope for military intervention and jailing (or worse) of political leaders and that idiot king who have destroyed the UK.

Not at all, so don’t try and play the victim. I simply pointed out that you made a comment and then denied that it meant exactly what it did indeed mean; thereby indicating that you didn’t understand what you yourself had written.

What happened to Britain? Such a shame. 

 

 

Nothing has happened. 

 

1) 6th biggest economy in the world.

2) 'Free universal health care' for all - taken out of taxation. 

3) Free education for children under 18. 

4) Subsidized university education for citizens, in some of the best universities in the world - very cheap compared to other countries. 

5) Ability to hold dual citizenship. 

6) Brits move abroad, knowing full well they can come back and be taken care off. Americans for example will not have that same security, particularly for health care. 

7) Clean air. Compare this to the pollution in Thailand. 

8 ) Strong laws to protect against racism, xenophobia, homophobia, etc 

9) Low crime rate - despite the media rhetoric, crime rate in the UK is still very low. 

 

I could go on ....

 

Some of the bad things - abuse of generous handouts, corruption is rife with government money, unable to build infrustructure, Brexit has damaged the economy, etc 

 

THE ONLY PLACE THE UK IS NOW NOT GREAT FOR IS RACISTS.

Being white in Britain is a curse. No PSR before sentencing, excluded from certain jobs, back of the line for University places, mocked by the likes of Emily Thornberry, years in jail for social media posts, portrayed as evil in tv dramas. 

 

Privilige??? 😀

Oh no, now your persecution and victimhood extends to the telly - the TV is against you!

You are a cartoon and your posts become more farcical by the day.
