I did nearly say self appointed, but seemingly accepted and approved by members so de facto.
When ecclesiastical matters or questions arise, he always gives a considered response, even where the issue

You’re making a mistake pva
A it’s the bbc
B trump says
C woke
If I saw a role advertised saying that certain minorities would be prioritised due to under representation at the level of the role advertised, I wouldn’t waste my time doing the necessary preparation and therefore not submit an application.You’re making a mistake pva

it’s possible to piss in the wind and get your hands dirty at the same time.Like Grendel he’s fuckin mad
No compassion or empathy but blaming air traffic control individuals who weren’t competent because they were employed because they were disabled or black
Just like grendel he thinks he’s on a winner so repeats the point
And on child abuse victims grendel I have on numerous occasions called on justin welby on inaction and unlike you been involved in having to deal with the consequences of these very close to home
We can either piss in the wind or get our hands dirty and try and be part of the solution
Like trump you just repeat the same shit so fuck off
I think it should also include women, who are still underrepresented overall, IMO.I don’t really subscribe to the whole ‘anti-DEI’ stuff but I tend to agree on the positive discrimination points. FWIW I’ve thought (and maybe this is just benevolent, non-racist me) that things like diversity ‘quotas’ would sort themselves out over time anyway as I think it’s largely dependent on the prevailing culture that one has grown up around. Those now aged 60-70 have generally lived through times of overt racism and may have a higher tendency to deprive POC of opportunity*. However, I think generally speaking those 50 and below, which is probably the more common senior management age now, have a different worldview and I question whether the positive discrimination or DEI reporting is necessary.
*I will qualify this by saying not all people of this age and above are racist, but there is likely a larger proportion who are either overtly or subconsciously due to their surroundings growing up.

Too many appointments a result of political largesse in the USA.Think there's a lot more to this than we're being told, isn't there always. Might look into it more when I have more time as it's pretty interesting stuff and certainly not as straightforward as Trump is making it seem.
Also seen it suggested by the outgoing secretary of transportation that upon taking office Trump immediately fired or suspedened key personal with no replacements. While I would doubt that would directly result in this tragedy it does give the impression he's just doing whatever he feels like with no real assessment of the consequences.
As always seems the way nowadays its hard to work out whether what you're reading that is being presented as fact is actually true and can in any way be backed up rather than some outlandish claim from either side of the political spectrum.
Do you believe women need equal representation in the workplace, why is that, could you set out your reasons.I think it should also include women, who are still underrepresented overall, IMO.
I believe the best person should have the job. Women are often underrepresented in managerial and director positions.Do you believe women need equal representation in the workplace, why is that, could you set out your reasons.

That is not an explaination, it is a reiteration with no substance.I believe the best person should have the job. Women are often underrepresented in managerial and director positions.
There are plenty of independent studies out there for you to have a look at that back it up.That is not an explaination, it is a reiteration with no substance.
No it isn't.Surely it’s on you to explain why they don’t? The null hypothesis has to be all humans are equal until proven otherwise no?
No it isn't.
Well summarise them,with examples and links.There are plenty of independent studies out there for you to have a look at that back it up.
Hahahaha fucking hell.Well summarise them,with examples and links.
Also can you find out if there is equality of representation in the most successful economies, China for example.
Is this the room for an argument?No it isn't.

It must be weighing on himIn respect for the 45th & 47th President of the USA I think this particular page should be retired.
So he may be able to get on with the job.
Assume the break thing refers to railway staff. Did a bit of digging and guess what? Turns out it's most likely bollocks. The source seems to trace back to The Sun and then got repeated by the likes of the Mail and Express.Is re starting a break when a manager speaks to you 5 minutes before the end of it a lowering of safety standards?
Do people with intellectual disabilities all have a handful of G.C.S.Es?
ATC is a stressful job. Are people with a handful of G.CSEs and mental health issues the best candidates?
Having ended up on a rail workers forum looking for info on something malc raised on another thread I thought there must be a forum for ATC workers, and of course there is. The opinion on there is that Trump is talking absolute shit.Well this basically shows Trump to be talking a load of shit (surprise surprise).
- an initiative to increase diversity in the FAA and train disabled people to be air traffic controllers was introduced during his first term
- candidates aren't just given a job for being black or disabled, they still have to go through the same selection process and training
Fact-checking Trump's claims about diversity schemes and the Washington plane crash
He told a news conference that diversity hiring efforts at the Federal Aviation Administration may have led to safety issues.www.bbc.co.uk
I don't suppose you noticed I have not expressed a position either way I just asked a provocative question and asked for justification of currently popular point of view and the only response any can come up with is 'studies prove this point', maybe they do I've certainly seen this expressed in the media but I've never looked at any details and I suspect neither has the poster who gave that response. I think that you are simply repeating whatever is currently being promoted in the media.Hahahaha fucking hell.

Despite this I think you've decided in your own mind what and how I think and before you ask I'm going to say I don't know because it's not something I've given any consideration to.
The American people one day may come to realise it too.Reading X these days has actually made me realise just how mentally unstable trump and his support base are
I try to remind myself I’m being fed one side of it by design on Twitter. But the lack of backlash from Americans to him standing up hours after such a tragedy and coming out with that tirade is frightening.
Presumably his tariff antics will somehow result in our energy bills, council tax, groceries and mortgage rates going up again. Or will at least be quoted alongside the usual world events as a reason, whilst the profit margins stay same.
What is he actually trying to achieve? Read several reports today and nobody seems to know because every expert and trade group, both US based and overseas, seem pretty unanimous in saying this is a terrible idea that will disadvantage everyone.
