Phillips only got the job because he is a mate of Blair's....... and is of course, Black.
I applied for the job when the previous head - an Indian bloke got pissed at an England v India cricket match (he was supporting India, natch) and started to attack a copper, 'stood down for personal reasons', (and the hernia he acquired when trying to carry home his obscene pay off..
I rung them up and said I would like an application form - I told them I was academically probably more qualified than Trev' - and I didn't know Tony Blair - so surely that would count in my favour. I also asked them whether the fact that I was white would bar me from the job...
As she was having trouble answering that question, I asked whether there had been ANY previous white heads of the Equality Commission - because surely an Equality organisation must be... 'equal'?
They put the phone down.
I've never met a black chartered accountant or a black architect and I knowmany of both professions. Yours anonymously.
Anonymous, I imagine they realise that accountancy is a dead-end profession and become lawyers instead!
