Up a notch here then.

June Sarpong gets paid a small fortune for a 3 day week to grift away at diversifying the workforce and what happens when someone takes a pop at her on Twitter?
Stevie Benton wrote: | Almost everyone raging about June Sarpong and her role/salary is demonstrating, quite clearly, why her role is needed. |
That's right, disagreeing with her being paid a whopper fat cheque in a pointless diversity role only demonstrates why the role is required in the first place
I didn't know much about her so decided to go looking:
https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2020/oct/11/june-sarpong-i-dont-have-the-luxury-of-being-mediocre-interview-bbc-diversity-books
Books on how white people can tackle racism
Quote: | “Well, we know that if you look at who’s had access to opportunity across the board, it’s been a very, very small group in society,” she says. “In order to reverse that and jumpstart the system, you have to intervene. People are very comfortable with targets and goals in all areas of business; it’s only when you start talking about targets for people that there is debate. But I’m not wasting time or energy with anyone who doesn’t want to do it. Especially when there are lots of people who do. My focus is there.” |
Yeah, ignore all the plebs that pay your salary
Imagine being so deluded that you think you need to jump start the system so that black people can achieve in life....when you're a black person that's an OBE and has achieved in life without even having gone to university How did she do it?!
Quote: | When she joined MTV at 21, for instance, part of a new wave of female presenters including Cat Deeley, Edith Bowman and Donna Air, Sarpong was excluded from a magazine cover shoot celebrating the station’s hot new female talent. At the time, she shrugged it off. “The worst was that it wasn’t the magazine that had made the decision – it was MTV,” she says now. But she kept her head down and stuck to the immigrant parent script: you have to work twice as hard for half as much |
Oh, she worked twice as hard and only got paid half as much
Just imagine having your nose out of joint for not being on the front cover of a magazine twenty years ago - the insinuation being because she was black - when Cat Deeley, Edith Bowman and Donna Air were all in their prime and competing for the same space. Yeah, wasn't just because, I dunno, you weren't the looker they were?!
Used to date David Lammy by all accounts - quite the couple they would have been. |

Yes, some slight racism 20+ years ago is all the proof one needs that the entire system must be torn down  ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

June Sarpong will be proud of this diversity.
New series, Vigil.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11846996/?ref_=rvi_tt
It's about a Submarine. Therefore, the Royal Navy. It also has the old Bill thrown in for good measure.
Just look at the cast
Apparently there's not only female Admirals in the Navy, but visible Ethnic Minority ones at that
Imagine the screeching that would go on if someone cast a remake of, say, Boyz N The Hood, with a couple of white guys thrown in for diversity's sake  |

You know, they may not paint the nonce in the best light and they may use it as a vehicle to demonstrate their contrition...
Or they may use it to demonstrate how little the current DG and his minions knew about it, thus resigning it to history and the responsibility of people now retired.

If the crazy people aren't careful, they'll get what they think they want, and "racist" will become a badge of pride (and I don't mean the gay rights lot). ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017
