Govt: BBC Must Have Ten Per Cent LGBT Staff
Breitbart ^

Posted on 05/19/2016 2:42:27 PM PDT by detective

At least 10 percent of BBC employees should be Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transsexual (LGBT), a government policy paper has said.

The target is nearly twice that of broadcasting rival Channel 4, which, as a broadcaster tasked with promoting diversity, has a target of 6 percent.

Most large employers report that between two and five percent of their workforce are LGBT, a figure thought to be roughly in line with the population at large, although the precise figure is difficult to assess as it relies on self-identification.

And 10% is not enough. It needs to be 120% for sure.

Rather high quota, given sodomites are only 2% of the population.

I’d pretend to be a poof at work for this kind of deal.

“a figure thought to be roughly in line with the population at large, although the precise figure is difficult to assess as it relies on self-identification”

The most recent statistics from the CDC say the proportion is 2.3%, using a sample size of 230,000, with “trans-” anything being too small to register. There is no reason to think it’s anything more than that and this “we just don’t know” stuff is a flat out lie to justify inflating the numbers.

So could one identify as being gay but be biologically heterosexual and qualify?

As I read it, checking the "Gay" box on the job application increases your chances of being hired 5-fold.

Only problem that I can see is if the Human Resource guy says, "Prove it!"

That’s awfully bigoted, if I say it, it is true, in today’s screwed up world.

In the entertainment industry, 10% would be a reduction.
