The multi-ethnic British orchestras, which is tightening its internal procedures, has added seven new members to its board of three.

They include a BBC finance director and a Labour Party activist (pic) who formerly advised the Mayor of London.

Useful additions.

    Samantha Sing seems to be heavily outnumbered.

    Don’t try to tell me this is diverse.

    • John Borstlap says:

      If the get a few white British people both in the orchestra and on the board, it will be really diverse.

  • Anthony Sayer says:

    Diverse? This has to be a joke. I’ve never seen a less diverse bunch in my life.

    Stop ‘positive racism’. Common, poor people are all in deep sh_t. Helping people because of their ethnicity or skin colour is shocking. It is against everything that sensible people fight for!

    How much do people like Chi Chi earn for these projects?

    Might be better if they paid their players properly.

    Today one of the articles about Trump’s win remembers a poster from Mrs Thatcher’s time. It had the picture of a young black man, and it said, to Labour he is Black, to the Tories he is British.

    Why is nobody questioning why Trustees keep resigning? This is the 2nd large number recruitment of Trustees in as many years. They all realise how uncomfortable it feels to be seen supporting a bully.
