So Emerdale are looking for new writers.

Just reread its only open to black yorkshiremen.

I wonder who'll be the first person to say 'it's political correctness gone mad'?
Oh, wait - it's me.

It's behind a fence.
White people fenced OUT. OH MY GOD.
My space bar is f**ked up and I can't be arsed to correct. But.
Seriously.
I'm sure this has been covered before.
But if I wrote an advert like that for a opportunity within my company my arse would be sued to kingdom come.We aren't even allowed a space for a date of birth on our application forms these days.
How do they get away with it?
edit - it seems Aarons clever programing corrects the space bar issue
Fella there's no space for racists!
The DOB thing, you sure? I've been recruiting recently and it wasn't a problem
The minorities are kinda under-represented though, in terms of actual writers etc. I can understand them asking.
However, I would like an opportunity specific to people in their late 20s in the south-east. Any race, they just have to be 28 or 29. And from around here.
NONE OF THESE SPECIFIC ONES EVER APPLY TO ME, UGHHH.
What about working class Yorkshire men? Theres never f**k all for us.
You need to be either middle class, black, in a wheel chair or gay to get any decent opps.
F**k me silly.
Whats the title of the pornographic mong com Ricky Gervais is making as a follow up to Derek?

Has anyone managed to find out what 'BAME is defined as Ethnic Minority background using the 2011 Census guidelines.' actually means...?
It's not as black and white as it looks...
Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic - I would say living in yorkshire I class myself as an ethnic minority full of somalians and polish #shithole
