Harperson finally goes round the bend...
Harriet Harman is drawing up plans to stamp out discrimination against Scousers, Geordies and people from Yorkshire.
Labour's deputy leader wants to get more people from the regions on to the boards of major public bodies.
Ms Harman is planning to impose special quotas to boost numbers - just as she has done for women, gay people and ethnic minorities.
She fears too many organisations are run by executives from London and the South East."
Oh lordy, she's really
scraping the barrel
now. What the hell is wrong with this woman?Anyone hear the one about the Scouser, the Geordie and the person from Yorkshire who walked into a bar?

She has missed Cornish people off, tut tut
Perhaps she will positively discriminate against herself as she is from the South? That way we will be rid of her...
Seems fair enough to me; noone from south of the Watford Gap has yet proven themselves to have the gumption to run anything. :P
What a load of bollocks and shame on the tories for taking a single step in that poisonous direction.
I couldn't give a monkey's fart for the sex, race, background, religion or sexual orientation of a candidate for any position. The best 'man' should get the job and if that means that they happen to be white, middle class, heterosexual males from the South East then so be it.
England is one nation.
The "English regions" are an EU/Labour conspiracy to eradicate the inconvenience of England once and for all.
What are blue Labour going to do about it?
It's all about power. By setting everyone against everyone else, divide and rule, this loathsomely privileged woman can continue to amuse herself by making the proles jump through hoops.
Just ask yourself when was the last time that any of these things interfered with what anyone of the Left wanted to do? How many people of the Left are in prison in the UK for "Saying Wrong Things"?
These are the politics of hate; and the foremost hater in the kingdom is hateful Harriet. Because you have to hate people pretty badly to pass laws to put people in prison for saying things.
The whole "equality" industry is a scam by the Left on the rest of us, to privilege themselves and buy an electoral clientele. In this case, they'd like some more votes up north.
Will a white northerner be favoured over a black/gay/female southerner?
Of course not, they will retain their protected positive discrimination status.
Once again Harman is hitting the white male, particularly those looking for work.
*sigh*
Quotas, quotas, quotas...
What about dealing with attitudes, training, access and all the other underlying problems rather than just pissing off people who lose out to quotas?
So she'll be rooting for William Haig next election. What a hoon?
Harperson is worried by the local and EU election results - that even avowed Labourites in the north will desert Labour.
I wouldn't be surprised if they try to bring in some law for organisations to hire a certain percentage of northerners. Labour is daft enough to try it.
What about fucking Mancunians? Why are we left out of the white middle-class southerner's list of people who need assisting because we're oh-so-hard-done-by?
