Re: New BBC Experts

The day will come when we will see an ad for a white male/female hetrosexual to fill a post at the BBC, not in my lifetime I suspect.

AFAIK, the OP concerns this item:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-43610374

The BBC wants to ensure an equal number of male and female expert contributors appear on its news programmes by April 2019, the corporation has said.
So the policy concerns contributors and not presenters.

Alright, I apologise, I should have got my facts correct

Doesn't stop my OP having a large grain of truth about it though

Thankyou, Omah, for the link

People should be accepted because they can do the job, whatever their race, gender, sexuality or religion.
