You're going to spout off some Latin crap any minute now aren't you. If you insist, Nemo mortalium omnibus horis sapit. One we should all note. The captain of the Nautilus has died? In a bus accident? |

Wait until the black "Not F**king Around Coalition", starts fighting with the white, "Neither are we, you mother fu**kers."
It`ll be like Bull Run, only with automatic weapons.

No one will be surprised that Millwall fans booed players that took the knee to mark BLM yesterday.
Guess it's a step up from monkey chants, so progress is slowly being made.

Freedom of speech or expression as long as it fits one agenda, complete outrage if you have a different view and dare have a difference of opinion. The FA just make it up as they go along. Pep Guardiola got fined for wearing a little Yellow Ribbon in support for his fellow Catalonians unlawfully jailed. The reason outlined by the FA was that "Any show of support or "wearing a political message", is a breach of kit and advertising regulations. So what is players taking the knee, doing Black power salutes and having the BLM logo on the shirts then? Complete double standards. I wouldn't of boo'd personally but I have no problem with them doing it, if they feel its a farce and no longer want to see it before every game. Of course Black Lives Matter but the organisation is a sham. However much the Premier League and Football League pretend that its not anything to do with BLM, it's utter Garbage. The marketing team deserve huge kudos, as it's a powerful slogan, so credit where it's due there. But its just a massive sham of an organisation full stop. |

Good on you for having the balls to comment though, many won't. Was Peps Catalan gesture supported by the FA? Is the conflict in Catalan related to football? What about poppies on shirts? The FA are fully backing BLM, it ties in with anti-racism in football. I don't like the FA or premier league as organisations personally but that's not really important on the grand scheme of things. It's a shame people can't get behind an anti-racism movement without their egos being inflamed. The nonsense about BLM as a 'sham organisation' is an excuse to be ignorant, in my opinion. People know perfectly well it's more than that. |

www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55910874There are fewer black people at the top of FTSE 100 firms despite long-standing diversity targets, research has found. For the first time in six years, there are no black chairs, chief executives or finance chiefs, the Green Park consultancy found.

For the first time in six years, there are no black chairs, chief executives or finance chiefs, the Green Park consultancy found. Interesting article. It doesn't go that in depth with the data though. It's not just about being diverse,the opportunity should be there of course, but equal opportunity does not always mean equal outcome. Do we really want to have some sort of affirmative action where people are simply employed or promoted to a role simply because of what nationality, race, gender or sexual orientation they are rather than their suitability to the role? I'm pretty sure that in the UK hiring someone simply because of their nationality, race, gender or sexual orientation or any other status, without regard to their performance, is illegal isn't it? However im pretty sure the law in the UK does allow for any person regardless of their nationality, race, gender or sexual orientation to be considered in hiring and promotion when the group is under-represented and if the candidates are of equal merit. I.e equal opportunity but that doesn't mean equal outcome. It's a double edged Sword. Also it mentions in the article that people sought better prospects in the US, possibly because in the US they have affirmative action. |

Yeah all levels of discrimination are illegal unless it has something to do with visas. I think you are allowed to choose a candidate who is British, over a candidate with a visa. Could be wrong though. I agree with much of your post, the question really is equal opportunity there? On paper it is but where I think the real issue lies is the direct hiring managers. This goes beyond race too, it’s all levels of discrimination. As an example, if you were choosing a candidate between a pregnant lady vs a 30 year old man - i’d put my neck on the line that 99% of times the man will be hired. The only way he wouldn’t was if the woman was 100000x better. And it’s the same with race too, there may be equal opportunity on paper - but is there really? It’s why I think we need to be much tougher on all forms of discrimination because if the public’s opinion doesn’t change/improve then you’re not really doing enough, IMO. |
