Talldarkandransome Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I remember a former employer of mine had a diversity rep who was blatantly racist. I've never really given much stock to those positions since then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talldarkandransome Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Also, it's very difficult not to offend someone these days. Especially on social media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khizzy Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) Should change her job title to the EDL officer instead, sounds way more appropriate. Edited January 7, 2023 by Khizzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Your employer fishing through historical tweets/social media and then reprimanding you for it is a load of bollocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Follyfoot Posted January 7, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2023 I have no idea what she said, but I’m absolutely appalled by it. I really do not understand how our club can associate with such an individual who said whatever she said or tweeted. This is a very dark period for the club and I hope we have the strength to remove her from her position, comments, like she, whatever, said, are totally unacceptable in this day and age . Shame on her and shame on the club. 1 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I agree, not 100% sure what you're saying. But, people are losing their shit over something where they don't even know what was said. It's absolutely mental. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as those players charged by FA for dodgy tweets sent out when they were about 14. Think Jarrod Bowen was one example a few years back. No idea how many times she tweeted before we gave her the role, I certainly admire a random person's dedication to trawl through potentially 10k tweets anyway! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 So people pay to get behind the paywall only for the Athletic not to publish the offending tweets? Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's quite poor journalism to simply state they've seen the tweets and they "could be construed as islamophobic". When did Journalists decide their role is to obfuscate the facts and tell us how to feel about something they won't publish? Been happening here state-side for quite some time now... In fact when it comes to political "news" that is literally all they ever do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
