June Sarpong to leave high-profile BBC diversity role
It comes as a string of senior executives of colour have departed the corporation within the past year amid concerns around racism and lack of diversity.

June Sarpong will be quitting as the BBC’s diversity tsar after less than three years in the £267,000 three-day week role. Ms Sarpong, director of creative diversity at the BBC, took home £1,700 per day she worked after she was appointed to the role in November 2019.5 Apr 2022
Little snippet from today’s Mail, tucked away in a corner………
“CORPORATION TO DEMAND DIVERSITY FOR EVERY SHOW….
An executive at the BBC has said the corporation will not commission shows from companies if there is not enough diversity in their production teams or on screen.
BBC Director of nations Rhodri Taifan Davies, pointed to the broadcaster’s policy which expects 20% of the team working for external producers on significant commissions to come from minority backgrounds.
‘If we don’t see diversity in the production team that’s not a commission that’s going to go ahead’ he told the Wales Screen Summit.
The BBC executive said if there was not ‘meaningful diversity on screen’ that would also not work as a project.
In 2020 the BBC said it wanted suppliers to commit to the 20% figure for production teams. Under-represented groups include those from ethnic minority, disables and lower-income backgrounds.

Last week the BBC also revealed it would be removing qualifications from new applicants’ CVs in a bid to increase their social diversity. {telegraph.co.uk 21sep2017}

I think the BBC idea of diversity is “White,Conservative, male hetertosexuals need not apply” But the BBC is not alone.The media in general, given that we still have a white majority in Britain, appears to be infected with the same malady.
I firmly believe in and love the idea of diversity between nations but pushing too much diversity within a nation, in my view,will eventually lead to the death and destruction of the indigenous culture. I am assuming that the BBC is OK with that.
Well I, along with millions of whities are not. There will be resistance.
By the way I,m 82 years old so the coming conflict will not affect me much but my grandchildren will have decisions to make.
The little bit of Tennis at Queen’s (BBC2) I’ve seen this afternoon has had a couple of close-ups of Pride flags flying over the courts.
From the list of 32 below, I think it’s the Progress Pride Flag, but I could be wrong.
TBH, I had no idea self-obsession came in so many colours.
Sorry to do this one again folks but like the bad penny it keeps on comiing around as the Biden administration is considering limiting oil exports which is only going to hit one continent – Europe.
Obviously someone has told the senile old man that more supply means lower prices so if more is kept back then prices will fall and the expected bloodbath come November might not be quite as bad.
Sorry it’s paywalled but it’s pretty much breaking news atm.
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse there are rumours of the Iranians threatening to mine the straits of Hormuz – again.
And in other news Saudi’s oil Minister visited Moscow yesterday to discuss oil production, which is just ahead of the Biden begging tour when the President of the once most powerful nation on Earth looks like making a fool of himself as his begging is refused.
Biden is as we know a complete dangerous idiot who criticised the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, and refused to meet with him grandstanding his “presidency has to stand for something” now he’s on his knees cap in hand.
Why would any country stand for some jumped up pipsqueak who continues to wreck his own country and oil industy and assist him by acceeding to his wishes?
“Saudi-Russia relations ‘as good as the weather in Riyadh’, Saudi energy minister says as Biden visit confirmed”
If Biden and his loons are allowed to continue in power for much longer the only monument left to a once great nation is going to be its colossal debt. Socialism wrecks everything it touches, it is a toxic ideology and the speed at which it has been capable of destroying the USA is truly revealing.
All the power is now in the hands of Saudi and its OPEC partner Russia wants to see an end to the world dominance of the USA and wants an end to the dollar being the reserve currency, all MBS has to do is demand his oil is paid for in another currency and the USA falls to pieces, and with a man like Joe Biden in charge that is more than a possibility.

so yes have no right to remain in the UK a years after qualifying
“Sometimes up to 75% of courses are filled with trainees from abroad”

6pm BBC1 news. There are several items already I could have commented on including adverts for LGBQT season on BBC3.
They had to talk about the weather and mention climate change. But they had a lady of colour reporting about the heat from the Cambridge botanic gardens. This was where the highest ever temperature in the U.K. was recorded a couple of years ago, but she didn’t tell us that nor did she explain it was because there were fans for the glasshouses close to the thermometer.
But the reporter was full of word salad. Apparently the average June temperature is 20 degrees. Today it was 32 and she said some sort of rubbish like it was temperatures were already high for this time of year (32 Celsius is 90 Fahrenheit which I am sure will have happened before) but what the lady said was just rubbish, she is a reporter for the world’s best loved broadcasting (!) and she couldn’t make sense.
BBC 6 p.m. Radio 4 News: Covid cases are increasing across the UK as a result of the Jubilee Celebrations. Er, I don’t think so, BBC and ONS. According to the map it is limited to one constituent nation of the United Kingdom who may well have taken some interest in celebrating our Monarch’s 70 years on the throne but who are still suffering a repeat of the cold, wet, weather at the Coronation, 69 years ago this month. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51768274

they said a lot of foreign visitor were noticed coughing on the ferry.

” Admiral is a four-star flag officer in the U.S. Navy, equivalent to the rank of General in the other Armed Services. The rank of Admiral is temporary and generally used only in times of war.”
GB News drops one when they Tweet that a police officer was killed during Jan 6th events. So keen to condemn Trump they produce fake news. But after howls of protest the Tweet was removed and this is the sanitised report, admitting that the officer died of natural causes.
Watch GB News, they have an agenda.
When I tried to locate the GB News tweet it said that the tweet had been removed by the author. I have given up the attempt to locate and supposedly have to accept that I must have made the story up.
However, I swear that the tweet stated that the officer was killed and then the story followed with the snide comment about Trump. There were many replies almost all pointing out that the officer died of natural causes.
