Cheating for "Diversity"

One of the more annoying words of 2008 which is threatening to become even worse in 2009 is "Diversity".

You might think you know what this means or look it up in a dictionary, but you'd be wrong.

You need to go on the course, aspire to it, demand it, become an "Investor in Diversity".

Diversity is the next technique for the ratchet of socialism and its crusade against freedom and personal expression.

Only this week we learned of an old folks home having its funding withdrawn as its residents won't declare their sexuality and fill in the council's diversity questionnaire.

Last week I heard that it is common practice in some councils for contracts to be awarded not to the best bid, but to those who met the "Diversity" criteria.

So let me add this story I heard over Christmas on the subject relating to a major public sector employer:

    A recruitment event had been arranged which presented the employer, however at the end the presenters said they were not recruiting this year. A shame thought the young woman who went along quite keen, along presumably with the larger number of men, on this career.

    But then after the even she, and a few others were ushered to one side and given application forms as they met the "diversity" requirements of that organisation.

    And which public sector organisation under took such dishonesty ?

    Why you've guessed it the already politicised Police of course.


Diversity is a ratchet issue - one of the ideas that those on the side a freedom, fairness and honesty should consider is how we are going to file the teeth of that ratchet are reclaim our country.
