Where is the IET going?

Raymond Cragg
The IET on Twitter is mostly about women in engineering and it appears we also have or have had an Executive member who represents the Association for Black and Minority Ethnic Engineers (AFBE-UK). Since when did we get away and direct our selves at subsections of the organization? There is no minorities that I am aware of in the IET at least not because of bias in any way shape of form. The same goes for women in engineering, no one is biased against them. Low numbers are because they dont want to be in engineering..

Where is the IET heading? It does not seem to be going in a place most of the member wold probably want or is it?

    "it appears that most women are not interested in entering engineering". 

    You don't have to go back many years to a time when there were almost no female HGV or train drivers. It "appeared" that they weren't interested in these roles. Yet now both are commonplace and unremarkable.
