I was BBC staff 1969 - 1993,
I acted for much of that time as a Trade Union representative and negotiator,
I have usually voted Labour, but occasionally Liberal and once Communist
I am a bearded, sandal-wearing, Guardian-reading, gay man.
In my last years I worked closely with others pursuing a Directorate equality and diversity policy,
I was invited to do so because of my activities within the Union, so I fit a stereotype
but
those I worked with were from across the political spectrum, that is everywhere on the left/right axis,
but they were all at the one end of the bigoted/caring axis.
Its the 'totally corrupt' bit bothers me; a slight against hundreds of well-intentioned people, with no actual reason to say it.
