Good to know you are so familiar with 'lefty' logic.
How familiar are you with the 'righty' logic of the likes of Trump? Be good to have an explanation of that. It seems to have defeated far better minds than yours.

He has a point that you want to be 'left' alone, and yet you 'bother' this group with OT posts that don't have OT in the subject.
If logic is your strong point then you should see the contradiction.

Do you feel the need to justify discrimination? Some of us want equality of opportunity rather than any old boys BAME network.
It's an insult to bame people to tell them they've only got the interview because of the colour of their skin.
You call £10.20 and hour a well paid job? I feel rather sorry for for you.
It's not unusual for large firms to target BAME (or any other minority) for trainee positions. Especially when their staff numbers are heavily biased in favour of whites.
It's called being pro active against discrimination - rather than just paying lip service to it.
Rather than getting the interview because your father is in the same golf club? ;-)

You have some evidence for this?
It's called racism.
Yes.
To a racist, yes.
"Discrimination is the unfair or prejudicial treatment of people and groups based on characteristics such as race, gender, age or sexual orientation."
It's racial discrimination.

It does take the likes of you to think giving anyone a job interview is discrimination against all others.
Interesting that you right wingers claim to be all for freedom - but not the freedom of a business to choose who they interview or indeed employ?
It is when it's based on skin colour.
You seem to miss the point that positive discrimination, is discrimination and where skin colour is concerned, an act of racism.
I'd be all for that.
If they had it, which, of course, as we all know, they definitely don't.
Yes, dear.
No answer then.

Are you surprised. Our Dave is quite OK with hypocrisy.
Where's your question mark gone? OK OK, but it was you criticising somebody else's punctuation just a minute back!
Bill
It went to a red list country where there's a shortage.
I'm surprised you lot don't seem to know the definition of racism.
Here it is:-
Collins GEM English Dictionary racialism n. hostile attitude or behaviour to members of other races, based on a belief in the innate superiority of one's own race. ?racist, , racialist adj., n.
Fair enough.
