Equality, Diversity and Razia Aziz

On 12 September 2010, The Daily Mail reported thus:

"COUNCIL BOSSES ARE BEING ASKED TO IMAGINE THEY ARE ENGLISH ECONOMIC MIGRANTS IN THE FICTITIOUS REGION OF SINDIA, OR GO ON AN ‘ADVENTURE IN LESBIAN-ANDGAYLAND’ AS PART OF PUBLICLY-FUNDED TRAINING SESSIONS ON EQUALITY AND DIVERSITY.

More than 30 managers from BRIGHTON AND HOVE CITY COUNCIL have been on the two-day ‘LEADING ON DIVERSITY’ course in the past year – at a cost of several thousand pounds.

In the session entitled Adventures in Sindia, the English Exodus, staff are asked to imagine that it is 2030 and the ‘world is a very different place’. In this scenario, much of the South-East of England and East Anglia is under water. Millions of English families desperate for work have been forced to uproot to Sindia, an economic federation which is made up of China and India.

All the participants are asked to imagine that they are a seven-year-old child called Sarah Hardy, whose family has just moved to Delhi. They are also warned that THE ENGLISH ARE LARGELY DESPISED IN INDIA BECAUSE THEY HAVE A REPUTATION FOR ‘ILLEGALITY, CRIMINALITY, CULTURAL CONSERVATISM AND AN INABILITY TO LEARN THE HOST LANGUAGE’."

The course material states:

"Your seventh birthday was a miserable occasion. Your parents invited all the children in your class to a party. All but one failed to turn up and none sent an RSVP. THE ONLY CHILD WHO CAME WAS A JEWISH GIRL from Hungary. Somehow you felt that SHE UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU WERE GOING THROUGH’…

The course attendees are told that while in Sindia they can expect to hear comments such as: ‘WHY DO YOU INSIST ON EATING THAT BLAND FOOD?… DO YOUR PARENTS REALLY FORCE YOU TO DRINK ALCOHOL AT THE AGE OF TEN?’ and ‘WHAT DO YOU CALL AN ENGLISH VIRGIN? A CONTRADICTION IN TERMS’.

In the other session, staff are asked to imagine that ‘while asleep one night they have slipped through a wormhole in space’ and woken up in a parallel world where IT IS NORMAL TO BE LESBIAN OR GAY.

They are told that they are now in a country where ‘HETEROSEXUAL TEACHERS ARE VERY RELUCTANT TO COME OUT, THE IDEAL FAMILY CONSISTS OF A LESBIAN OR GAY MALE COUPLE’, AND ‘THAT CONCEIVING A CHILD BY HETEROSEXUAL INTERCOURSE IS VIEWED WITH DISTASTE’.

They are then asked to consider how they would respond if people asked them: ‘What do you actually do in bed?’, ‘DON’T YOU THINK HETEROSEXUALITY MAY BE A PHASE YOU ARE GOING THROUGH?’, AND ‘IS IT POSSIBLE THAT WHAT YOU NEED IS A GOOD GAY LOVER?’

The course for staff at Brighton and Hove Council was organised and run by AZIZ ASSOCIATES, a training consultancy founded in 1996. The company is run by RAZIA AZIZ, 45, A POLITICS GRADUATE, and CLIENTS INCLUDE HEALTH TRUSTS, LOCAL COUNCILS AND GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS.

Its website describes Ms Aziz as a ‘COACH, FACILITATOR, AND PERFORMANCE AND WORKSHOP ARTIST’ with a ‘holistic style that embraces the intellect, body and heart’...

A spokesman for BRIGHTON & HOVE CITY COUNCIL said… ‘OUR TRAINING ROLE-PLAYS ARE PROVEN TO DO WHAT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO DO, WHICH IS TO REDUCE INAPPROPRIATE DISCRIMINATION BASED ON RACE, FAITH, DISABILITY, GENDER, SEXUALITY OR AGE’." Taxpayer funds council adventures in Sindia and Lesbianandgayland

The Chrysalis 'team,' of which Razia Aziz is such an integral part, lists as its 'clients:'

"The Crown Prosecution Service; the Department of Constitutional Affairs; the Department of Trade and Industry; the Department for Education and Skills; various Local Authorities; Unions (inc. NUT, NASUT, NAPO, TUC); Victim Support; the BBC; Schools (managers, staff, teachers & governors); Youth groups; Voluntary Organisations (including Angel Drug Project, Deptford Centre, Newham Alcohol Advisory Centre, Various Residential Homes for the Elderly, L.A.G.E.R., Drug Advisory Service Haringey, T.S.B. Bank, Inform-Al, English National Opera, Brent Social Services, Southwark Group of Tenants Organisations, , Sutton Women's Centre, Leicester University School of Social Work, West London Women's Centre, Deptford Women's Centre, The London Lesbian and Gay Centre, The Albany Community Centre, Women in Manual Trades)."

So Ms Aziz is no voice in the British wilderness, ladies and gentlemen. She is, in fact, a real mover and shaker in the PC scheme of things.

From a Brighton and Hove GScene (gay scene) Magazine of May 2004, we have an ad for:

"HEALING OURSELVES: A Journey to Healing through our Wounds with Havva Mustafa & RAZIA AZIZ."

Which tells its target audience:

"Lesbian and bisexual BME women rarely have spaces in which they can be all of themselves without apology or denial. Almost every context they find themselves in is toxic to their nature in one or more ways.

This course is about taking courage to create the space - our space - TO BE OURSELVES, in all our woundedness and our wholeness - TOGETHER. We do this in the awareness that WE ARE A WONDER OF THE PRESENT MOMENT containing all of our histories - glorious, indifferent and painful. We will create a safe space in which TO SHARE OUR EXPERIENCES AND TO SUPPORT ONE ANother on our individual and group journey towards healing that hurt.

We will talk, listen, breathe, sing, be still, AND MOVE OUR BODIES. We will use story and our individual creativity to call on OUR INTERNAL WISDOM and awaken that within us which will guide us toward our renewal and regeneration.

THE COURSE IS OPEN TO LESBIAN AND BISEXUAL BME WOMEN. The group of up to 10 participants will meet one evening a month for 6 months, starting on June 4th. For further details please phone Havva on 01273 557942 or Razia on
01273 693877. Sponsored by Spectrum – LGBT Community Forum." GScene

'The course is open to lesbian and bisexual BME women.' = Muff divers wanted.

'The group of up to 10 participants will meet one evening a month for 6 months.' = 10 muff divers wanted once a month for six months.

'For further details please phone Havva on 01273 557942 or Razia on 01273 693877.'

= Any interested muff divers please phone an Asian immigrant muff diver called Havva Mustafa on 01273 557942 or an Asian immigrant muff diver called Razia Aziz on 01273 693877.

Or, if you’re a really keen muff diver and want to be sure you get invited to the orgy, why not give both Asian muff divers a call?

As the spokesman for Brighton & Hove City Council said, ladies and gents:

Our training role-plays are proven to do what they are supposed to do.

As long as the sheeple continue to vote in governments that promote folk as unrepresentative as Razia Aziz into positions where they can embarrass and humiliate 'more than 30 managers from Brighton and Hove City Council' into toeing a PC party line that implies 'it is normal to be lesbian or gay,' and ABNORMAL TO BE OTHERWISE, then the 'training role-plays' designed by the immigrant lesbian will be doing precisely 'what they are supposed to do.'

And Big Sister will be happy.

As for the sheeple, well, I guess they'll just keep on getting sheared.

Or, if they fall foul of a muff-diver, sh*gged.
