Thats the full quote above, I bring you attention to "We work in many multicultural areas", what has that got to do with anything, I work in England....period

Er, doesn't mean it's not multicultural, does it? Anyway, the quote from the company states that they want to maintain a 'sense of impartiality' - maybe they don't want to offend any Swedes, Paraguayans, Trinidadians or Toboggans (or whatever the derivative of Tobago is )

Same thing again - just 'cos you don't agree with it doesn't mean it's not right.
