As you leave the interview room you see the other candidates are black women. Now imagine that most employers look something like the one you’ve applied to. Would you see the point of EDI in those circumstances or are you happy to trust that you’ll be considered on your merits alone?

Even when we had the likes of Pol Pot as a more contemporary ’face of evil’, Hitler still remained the benchmark.

Exactly. The only other I can think of is the Tunnels. Which is a good venue but, due to its layout, can have sketchy sound quality. Saying that, the last few gigs I’ve been to there, the sound quality has been good.

Where else is there? Music Hall & Beach Ballroom are too big for ‘smaller’ bands.

That’s crap. Saw The Cinelli Brothers there this year, it was a great venue for an intimate gig.
