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?

    Hello Danial Nicholls,

                                          your Purl Pixor SparkShort cartoon was entertaining BUT I have not seen that sort of behaviour since the 1970s. It is history these days. Not only is discrimination illegal in the work place but it is old hat and retired. Somebody will be banging on about votes for women next. Women now have equality and equal rights. We even have a woman prime minister here in the U.K. Let's put this non-issue to bed and stick to engineering.
