If what you're asserting is correct, do other minority groups also suffer from this in some proportion...?

Tinkers, Travellers and gypsies.

Worse than that, ask the French about the Germans, British or Italians, or, indeed, anyone not French; You just must separate the Parisians from the French outside the ile de France. Where I lived the Parisians were like the Japanese to the Chinese. The Dutch were disliked purely because when they ...

It must be the gutter press you read. Nothing like that when I was brought up. Yes, we did curse Londoners for blocking up narrow lanes when they were on holiday. French fishermen came into port whenever there was a storm in the Channel and, apart from language were OK.. Boss, descendant of a famous...

Exactly. Although 'caste' is such an ugly word. I cannot think of another word which denotes a grouping of members of the KKk or Church of ..... or Friends of ..... Hospital or the Republican (Democratic) Party or Freemasons or Society of St John of Jerusalem or ..... . At least we are moving away ...

. Research has shown that biases can still creep in here though. For example, people with "Black sounding" names tend to get fewer call backs when submitting the same CV but with a white sounding name. T here's an idea that implicit bias is a big factor here - not conscious discrimination but some ...

No one is calling for a ban on the employment of whites. Affirmative action, properly implemented, does not prohibit the employment of any majority group. Rather, it provides a justification for the consideration of race / gender / etc... as an additional factor when assembling a shortlist from qua...

I don't know why you had to resort to pm when you started on on the open forum. Your message did not convince me of any reason for employing men rather than women - other than intrinsic dangers to white women. I trust that when you mention subordinates you are thinking of both men and women. [/quot...

[ Travelling in countries where white females are at risk - in the top hotel BA crews considered it so dangerous that they ensured female cabin crew were escorted everywhere, The only part of that I can accept is the section I have put in bold. I fail to see why any of the others are beyond the pow...

In my last major job it might have been difficult for a female; there were competence qualifications, a language skill requirement and the need to travel - I reckoned on 500,000 miles in the air per year. Yes, one girl did fit but they were exceptionally rare. Which of those would have been difficu...

Incidentally, interesting to see that this conversation is being tracked by a US outfit. Big brother is watching! Remember 1984 No one is calling for a ban on the employment of whites. My reference was not to the USA at this moment. It referred directly to one large country and if the colour is cha...

We have to recall that elsewhere government passed law is that whites must not be employed if there are blacks who can do the job or could be trained to do it. Are you going to fight that? It depends. I'm all for affirmative action. It's a critical part of the toolkit we have to address the impacts...

Graham. I thought that I had made my views perfectly plain. I do not consider white, black, brown, yellow, round eyes or narrowed eyes, male female or hermaphrodites differently. I do object to green martians however. I view with disgust the actions of certain police of various nationalities who act...

Ignorant, racist, both or neither? I very recently attended a chinese burial in Harlow for a friend who was born and bred there. Like all his siblings and cousins, he had been fluent in chinese and spoke english like any person born here. "We was going to go to the seaside but it rained" I was chat...

. He was South African, an accountant with a PhD, and he earned more serving food at CH than as an accountant in South Africa. My guess is that he was white in a country which has become anti-white. He would have been lucky to even have a job. Also cost of living in South Africa is a fraction of th...

Welcome to the 21st century, David! RP hasn't been around for a long time, except among the privileged classes, and the English language is all the better for it.
