It’s funny but also exposes the apparent blindness of institutions who want to bend over backwards to be seen to be inclusive, right-on, trendy or whatever.
But in an earlier thread on dodgy CVs, politicians and inflated egos we asked how on earth these people think they can get away with it when facts are so easily checked.
And that said, why the heck dont those in charge check their claims. The tempting answer is that they don’t want to know because an appointee or candidate ticks all the other boxes.
This guy has made a laughing stock of his university employers and most of all himself - but also the rest of us for trusting them.

Yet another seemingly Walter Mitty character but this guy has gone far seemingly unchallenged …… until now.

Reminds me of The Emperor’s New Clothes story. 😉
His claims are absolutely laughable.

The story is in all the newspapers and channels but am linking Wiki as whichever link is added, some people will ridicule it.
