My commiserations to the good people of Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust, who have been sent an edict by Nanny's equality and diversity team about how to hold their Christmas parties.
In brief the edict says:
1 Choose a time that is friendly to mothers, lest someone sues for discrimination (what sort of people sue because they can't attend a party?)
In brief the edict says:

The edict also lists contact details for three companies providing interpreting services, as well as an out-of-hours contact for an organisation specialising in sign language and lip-reading for the deaf.
What a truly ghastly way to organise a party, I certainly wouldn't want to go to one of these!

As I retired former NHS staff member, this does not surprise me at all......It just reminds me, if I needed reminding, how better off I am out of it.
ReplyDeleteI worked in both NHS and private hospitals, but I saw little PC crap in the private sector; we were all too busy treating patients and doing our jobs. The NHS sends staff on all kinds of brainwashing indoctrination courses to get them into the left leaning, BBC, Guardian, group think frame of mind.
I would not want to attend any party that followed the guidelines highlighted above by Ken but, perhaps that is what they actually want!
I agree wholeheartedly with your observations on this matter, Ken.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't attend a party ruined er sorry, run on those lines either, Tonk! I'm sick to death of all this political correctness garbage and ott elf'n'safety nonsense which has been imposed on us over the last quarter of a century. If someone suggested that I organised a party on the lines shown above, my response would be something on the lines of "Get lost!" or, to quote a former world tennis champion, "You cannot be serious!"
It also amazes me that no matter how big a debt the N.H.S is in, as we are as a country, and no matter how short of cash there is for public services, there is never any shortage of funds for this kind of rubbish! Instead of cutting front line services, they should stop all the money for this kind of nonsense!
