Maybe People Are Happy With His Design Skills?

A disgraced architect who was struck off for racially abusing and assaulting a taxi driver is still running a company offering building design services, we can reveal. Thomas Ford, 28, who also stole the driver's Toyota Prius car and crashed it, had his name removed from the UK's register of architects last week after he was given a suspended jail sentence.
Maybe he's employed by people who think an architect should only be sanctioned by his professional body if his buildings fall down? And don't care as much about woke concerns of 'appropriate' speech?
Ford appears to have got round any breach of the rules by not describing himself as an architect on the website of his company Tom Ford Architecture Limited.

That could equally have been written ‘appears to have complied with the rules by…’ couldn’t it? Going by the excuses proffered by Three Homes Rayner, whose supporters are always so quick to tell us what she did wasn't really breaking the rules....

Unless the entire purpose of this news item was to imply that he shouldn’t be employed by anyone because he's been declared persona non grata, that is.

His business website, which is still up and running, makes no mention of the judgement against him and his 'erasure' from the UK's list of official architects. Instead, it features glossy computer-generated pictures of home extensions and office buildings which he has apparently designed.

He's not obliged to mention it, is he?

Creeping Wokism

It's really creeping in everywhere, now. Reading a review of 'The Rings Of Power' in an online blogsite from the US publisher Tor books, I came across these examples:




Bear in mind I'd come here to have a read of what someone else thought of a fantasy tv show, in a fantasy literature-focussed online magazine. 

I'd expected critique of the writing, direction and faithfulness to the source material. But instead, I got the same old tired woke nonsense I get from everywhere else. 

Which is probably why, scanning down any list of new sci-fi or fantasy literature coming out, especially ones for the 'young adult' audience, the words 'queer' or 'trans' leap out at you. A lot

A culture that can't breed new members must, after all, find a way to recruit them.
