There really is a liberal movement in this country. It’s absolutely everywhere and in the work place.
There are protected characteristics that give people more rights over others and if you say anything about them, even out of context, your job will be taken.
We are currently going through a HR case where a girl who reports into me has sworn at me twice when I’ve asked her to do something politely. We’ve suspended her, quite rightly, and we’re trying to dismiss her as she’s been here less than two years.
If she wasn’t in a protected characteristic then she’d be gone already but she’s claiming mental health which means it’s difficult for us to get rid of her and she has a right to appeal now.
She could have also claimed sexism and other people can claim racism, discrimination against religion, homophobia etc. all to stop themselves being sacked when they deserve it.
What do I have to fall back on? Nothing.
Society has done this since Blair and Major and because YOU are apart of this, you don’t see it.
If a person definitively feels an 'ism' has been ascribed to them, who are you to judge what they have gone through emotionally or mentally?
Are you the judge and jury on your co-workers or anyone else in society??
