Hey Castro, tell you what.

Seeing as I'm old and feeble let's meet up this summer for an arm wrestle? I'll put down £200 quid, you do the same and the winner takes it....draw means we get it back.

Deal?

Don't forget the BLM placards otherwise you'll get done for more than a group of 6 and not social distancing.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

It’s ok, I’m pretty sure by how he goes on that Dan must be black anyway.

Ah well, I guess when it came to it our good friend Dan just doesn't want to play even with twenty years advantage....I suppose you can take the boy out of London but you can't take the soy out of the boy.

Never mind, we should definitely meet up though, probably next season.

Dan will probably take out his weedy rage on the next gammon who walks in for a job interview.

You clearly havent grasped any thing that's been posted. I think we are all against racism in all its forms including anti semitism. No one I mean no one on here has intimated in any way that they are in favour of racism. You write as though any one who doesnt agree with the violence is a racist.
There are other ways to protest apart from bashing up people and buildings.

Sadly it is you that has not grasped the point

The statement was made that as a result of the protests Black people would find it harder to get work. The opposite, very plainly, is true.

Always presumed you two were arch enemies so if true, that’s very good of you.

I sometimes like you too Maple.

This is where unconscious bias kicks in. If you had two candidates who were exactly the same on paper, and all of the above, it's proven that someone would select someone closer to themselves than not. When the large majority of the time that person making the decision is a white (and more often than not male) person, this is where the system perpetuates itself.

There are lots of psychology studies on it. This isn't just me being a 'right on' lefty.

If its unconscious what do you suppose is done about it. I personaly think it's made up and an excuse that people fall back on if they failed and cant explain it. But let say it's True how do you change something that's unconscious or is it something you just want to moan about.

Targets are not the way. If you are useless and white or useless and black you shouldn't get the job. If you are perfect and white or perfect and black it's down to attitude,apptitude presentation and experience of the role you are pursuing. Does that not beat targets.

You are misconstruing targets. They can be anything. For example the number of applications from specific sources. Or numbers of people involved in coaching sessions. Or self help groups. There are lots of ways to help people do their best.
