Bugger!! I fit two of the criteria, why the hell do I not work in the Civil Service?

Strangely enough actually, when looking for a CS job the one I wanted had one of those "we're panicking a bit because we're really not supposed to know what you are, but we do, and there's too many of one and not enough of the others" bits sellotaped on to the bottom, and it wasn't for someone fitting my description. IE "applications from blah blah blah are especially welcome as we are under-represented in this area"

I'm assuming now, after reading that article, that this was because it was an administrative post and everyone else already working in said office was female. And Catholic.

Good that Peter Robinson is showing himself to be fairly human though, seeing as he's going to be our next overlord. I'm still not sure of him though, and this does little to convince me entirely. I think the man is very intelligent and, dare I say it, conniving. He also comes across as a background operator rather than a frontline loon.

There's a look in his eyes which is very cold and calculating. IMO he realises that NI won't tolerate another raving psychopath after the Paisley years and has adjusted his views and demeanour accordingly.

But then I have been accused of being cynical in the past.
