Woke watch

[arsene york-hunt]

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

Iranian lad adapts to British culture and is more of the ball then most natives at what is happening in this country.

FC Maybe he set out to talk about preserving British culture but was distracted by something?

"If it was a lecture on preserving English culture, he didn’t exactly deliver really, did he."

"Dunno what’s preferable, you not knowing what your point is, or just not having a point in the first place"

"Dunno what the point was to be honest, Eerie. Just hot and distracted from work really..."

[Eerie Descent]

Of course it is. Why on earth wouldn't it be?

bigfrank 9:39 Fri Sep 8 A lecture on preserving British culture by the son of an Iranian political refugee. Presumably that's the acceptable side of multi-culturalism?

Hammer and Sickle thknks he is a uncle tom

[Hammer and Pickle]

"Yes, not much evidence of good old British reserve, openness and good humour in that rant there. He's clearly just been taken to the cleaners by the ex, and no doubt rightly so."

"That fine Brummie* band Led Zeppelin once sung a ditty about The Gallows Pole. Maybe the residents of Birmingham should adopt that quaint English folk song as a rallying siren and set up gallows in the Bull Ring ready for those responsible for this farce to meet justice. Nailed on that before the week's out they'll claim that ""Actually it's so bad that we can't afford the services that we're legally mandated to deliver"", knowing full-well that the government would have no choice but to step in and fund those services at that point. If you could get a hold of their business plan before it gets deleted/redacted/shredded then no doubt you would clearly see that would be a key determinate in how they (and all other local authorities) operate. * - Yes, yes, I KNOW they're Wolverhampton/Kidderminster/Black Country, but so fucking what? I'm from Romford and get called a cockney everywhere in the world I go. Goose, gander. I am massive, though."

"Another thing I noted was their report on equal pay showed breakdowns between male and female for full time, part time and the overall totals. Where pay for men exceeded the female total, the percentage difference was shown in RED Where the pay gap was the other way round and females had been paid more than men, the percentage was shown in GREEN"

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

"Thanks to Kaiser for bothering to delve into the actual numbers. I must confess that despite smelling a rat, I couldn't be arsed. So many councils, so much corruption and mismanagement."

[SurfaceAgentX2Zero]

"I'm not sure I see equal pay for women as an example of 'idiotic wokeness'. Provided they actually are doing the same job. If Birmingham Council has been so grossly underpaying its female employees that equalling them up is going to make the difference between them being solvent and bankrupt, then either the underpayments have been unbelievably large or something else is remiss. As Mr Oxsaw says, doubtless it could have been handled better."

[Kaiser Zoso]

"Something odd about Birmingham’s pay gap They employ 10,000 people, 53% are women, and they reckon they will need to pay £757 million, which is in addition to £1.25bn already spent. What’s odd is that the workforce is roughly 50/50, so 5,000 women would average £151,000 each for this new claim, and would have got £250,000 each on average in 2010."

"bruuuno 12:38 Wed Sep 6 Re: Woke watch It seems that equal pay payments have sent Birmingham council bankrupt. Quite literally go woke to broke Bruuuuuno You do know they negotiated the settlement in order to avoid losing in a court case? The law required them to do this - it wasn't being ""woke""."

[Mike Oxsaw]

"The Birmingham ""bankrupcy"" thing is quite clearly a politically motivated reds seeing a chance to stick it to the blues (and I don't give a fuck which one is ""your"" side). The council could easily have negotiated a phased levelling up policy with workers/their unions on back-pay that kept spend within their budget. Would have been marginally more expensive in the long term but at least they'd not need to cut services (residents have already paid their council taxes for)."
