@JuliaHB1 why don't you try? Looks like you'll have more of a chance than someone from AN getting a job at LBC
@sunny_hundal why is it important that a radio station's presenters have the same coloured skin as some of its listeners? Irrelevant surely?
@JuliaHB1 you think Parliament would be fine with no women MPs?
@sunny_hundal I think Parliament should be full of MPs elected on merit not whether or not they have Fallopian tubes. Fewer women because...
@JuliaHB1 Just to be clear, you wouldn't think there was any issue if there no women MPs at all? Amazing
@sunny_hundal I would think it was an issue if women were banned from being MPs or stopped in some way from standing. Otherwise, no.
@JuliaHB1 then maybe you should ask why a station in a city half white coincidentally can't find any good non-white presenters.
@JuliaHB1 @sunny_hundal err yes the BBC Asian NEtwork does employ white staff....! And are you suggesting LBC is aimed at white audience?!
@fatimamanji good grief. Of course not. I was simply following his argument to its logical end.
@JuliaHB1 as I understood it his argument was LBC's presenters should be more reflective of London as a city ?
@fatimamanji yes, hence my point. BTW, LBC is a national station and also, I no longer work there.
@realdealdanny @JuliaHB1 Why don't you just complain about a lack of White History Month to accelerate this conversation?
@JuliaHB1 How many businesses in Wembley or Southall has non Asian employees? #silly arguments
@sunny_hundal
@sunny_hundal What diff does it make? Are there not non Asians in those areas? Or do you just like playing victim?
