What never surprises articulate readers is what can be read in a CV. The one above looks like the credentials of a saint, and is in fact that of David Cameron’s angel Emma Harrison who was born in Essex but was brought up in Sheffield (taken from an article in the Daily Telegraph). What is more pertinent is the following extract:
While behind the bar in a working men's club in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham for the show, she heard racist language that made her feel "physically sick" and left after two-and-a-half hours. (But making millions [£’s] on the back of millions of youngster being almost unemployable, a social and educational defect and one easily pounced on by a selected elite where the average hard worker can never penetrate, is social apartheid. Does that mean she is a social bigot and had a loathing of the thousands of British service personnel serving in Afghanistan, most of whom can never walk alongside her with her aspirational detestation for the ordinary Englishman? No wonder the Socialist detractors can have a field day with such events and hypocrites. I wonder, have I filled my time sheet out correctly???)
Harrison was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2010 New Year Honours.
She has also received a number of business awards.
She has received honorary doctorates from Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Derby.
That face is unacceptable,anywhere.
