    The “You may be jobless but you are not worthless” fairy dust

    Another “motivational quote” on LinkedIn which, although positive and true in essence, ignores the brutal reality of the job market’s nurtured failures Quotes like these are numerous on LinkedIn or other social media platforms.

    WHO, CoE: ‘vaccine passports’ not scientific, harm human rights

    A much-needed wise reminder by WHO and the Council of Europe to dispel the population freak-control murk trying to inoculate the UK and EU.

    The Nasdaq listing businesses now wants racial diversity quotas

    To Reason, candidates should be only recruited on competencies, experience, skills, qualifications and ethics. Such divisive virtue-signalling is yet another concerning, ill-inspired, looking like quasi-racist coercion of the recruitment industry. A very worrying article saw on LinkedIn today. This movement about equality and diversity is not new. But it is seriously evolving now in a…
