yes because you apply diversity

I had diversity training in March. We did not deal with cookers, but
we did learn some other more important things. In particular you
cannot say "ethnic minority" any more. This is EXTREMELY offensive for
the obvious reasons. You should say "minority ethnic" instead. This
shows a great level of sensitivity and cultural awareness.

More like it shows a great level of diversity training awareness.

Presumably the penalty for saying 'ethnic minority' is hanging, drawing,
and quartering (or is that too English a punishment?). Whereas if they
come out with "Blaukopf? Well that's a queer name, where's that from
then?"[1][2], then it's absolutely fine, because they haven't been told
not to say that.

Ben Blaukopf

[1] Or, as a running friend of mine got when registering for a race
"Patel? 'ow d'you spell that then". Other random runner "well it's only
the 3rd most common surname in the British Isles!"

[2] I don't give a monkey's if you ask me where it's from, so long as
you accept that Beaumont-Montyfreckles is also quite a queer name [3]

[3] Though actually Blaukopf is a bit odd, given it means "Blue Head".
