@Edent I struggled with this when I worked for GDS. There was a lot of talk about BLM at work during that period, and I’m fully in favour — but it was hard to understand how we could claim it was not political. Yes, opposition to racism (or homophobia, or sexism, and so on) should be taken for granted but in the current climate it’s clearly a political position. (At the time senior members of the government were making inflammatory anti-BLM statements so clearly not neutral.)
