Tbf, there are certain jobs (Police Force for example,) where DEI hiring actually has merit to it imo.

But for entertainment products? Just cast the best for the job, even if they come from Germany, France, Scotland, or Liverpool.

But black people would get hired for some of these jobs still if they were to hire based on merit, I've always thought that it's racist personally when some people try to argue that "black people wouldn't get hired very often if it were based on merit."

And I know that people don't say it exactly like I've quoted, but it's basically what those types of people mean when they make that argument, and in my view it is shockingly racist.

The pundits were great as it happens and far better ( and far more qualified than any of the gobby women pundits who talk like world beaters … they played over ten years ago when women’s football was even worse thanit is today and they won NOWT even then)

One of the most used female pundits played 130 ‘professional’ games over a 14 years period - thats less than 10 games a season and at a pizz poor level…

I don’t even see colours in a person or player or boxer or whatever but when I see a ‘person of colour’ ( can I say that these days ?) claiming its harder to get jobs in telly or the media because of their colour It drives me mad
