Letter to Wera Hobhouse, MP for Bath regarding lived experience in the UK and her new legislation Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023

  I would like to share my recent experiences with you regarding this legislation, and would ask for some advice on my plans for my recovery from schizophrenia.   I feel that I have not received protection from harassment at work for my protected characteristics: I am an Anglo Indian and from a visual inspection look like the leader of the Indian opposition (to my eyesight), yet I have to deal with comments ranging from ‘I couldn’t tell you were Indian’ to ‘you look like you are from Southern Europe’, or ‘where are you from’ even though to my ear I usually speak in the central Bath accent as opposed to RP.     I have the diagnoses of dyslexia, autism and serious mental health (schizophrenia).

I'm just saying that it's a good message but why do I have to muscle up to have it my way when I tried to do it just using the old way of being educated (top shcool at the system) and qualified (top degree subject)... I mean it seems you are still being from Jesus'...
