How is this for a bit of plain English speak London Fire Service web site

Political Restriction of Posts

Please note that by virtue of sections 1 to 3 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989, some posts are classified as politically restricted under the 1989 Act. In general, you can assume that posts graded at MG7, PO3, PO2, PO1, Head of Service, or Director will be classified as restricted, and those at grade MG8 may be.

Amongst other implications, this means that the postholder cannot stand for election to a range of public bodies, act as an election agent for candidates for such elections, canvass on behalf of a candidate or a political party or speak in public (or publish material) in apparent support of a political party.

Details of the restrictions which apply, and of other posts within the Authority which are politically restricted, can be provided if requested. The restrictions are imposed by legislation and the Authority cannot vary them. However, certain employees, particularly those whose post is restricted purely because of the level of remuneration, may be able to obtain exemption from an external Independent Adjudicator.

I think it means they are restricted. At least the word is mentioned a lot so restricted restrictions may be implemented for politically restricted activities.

Thanks for clarifying Angus, I thought some of your replies were out of character for the Angus who used to post on here. My mistake.

Cava?

I thought this restrictive restriction may have restricted your application to become an MP for the BNP. Should it be that you take up Lisa advise to get of your A8** and become an BNP MP. I didn't want you to go to all the trouble of applying to then find out you may be resticted, you being an ex public servant.

Been away in Spain for a month and I see not much changes on here...he, he.

I would just like to add that I am 100% in favour of equal rights providing there are equal opporunities and the pay is equal providing the job is identical.....eg: Prize money for Wimbleden is now equal but the women don't play Five Sets as the men have to. Very equal!

To be honest we don't often see women really buying into equality unless it suits!

No, worried about the stitches and extremely serious burn my daughter sustained. (The burn covers most of her lower arm, from the elbow to the wrist).

Nearly all the way round the arm.

To get the right perspective on instructive permission to put in motion my intention to be decisive in the permutation between parties, my dereliction to duties, because of no intention, would give dissatisfaction to the population. Mainly my restrictive non assertive ass movement could cause combustion and pollution. Neither is having a pension and the accumulative monies not acceptive. Sorry to be subjective but this is not for discussion due to nonprogressive institutions in this nation.

A prospective candidate I'm not because of my subtraction from my previous occupation and while on vacation, at my destination, creative, positive meditation fills my time .

And the suits that are bought in this household are not of an equal quality or cost. My wifes suits cost a lot more than mine and they have names on them of designers etc, mine just have M&S on an inside label

Welcome back Mal, hope you post in the overseas section on your holiday etc.

Thanks Frank, we did'nt take the van this time as we had the opporunity to use an apartment at a very reasonable price of

The postings on this topic have, at times, become very heavy and somewhat personal. Therefore I am now about to add my thoughts - All men are equal no matter what creed, colour or religion there fore in the work place the job should be offered to the most appropriately qualified and suitable individual.

Regarding sex equality there are subtle differences as to the suitability of work for male or female. A woman generally has a far more caring nature than a man and because of their maternal and personal nature they are better suited in the nursing and caring industry, however I do not think a women would be as capable as a man working on a building site as say a bricklayer humping bricks, mortar and bags of cement about.

I worked in an architect's office where my senior was a female architect - she was very talented in her design and drawing work and held her own on building sites in a managerial capacity with site personnel. I will be honest I learnt a lot regarding design and managerial approach from her - she was first class. Again in design quite possible a female could have better design flare than a male so there are professions/jobs where a man or woman are equally capable but others where one or the other sex are more capable as exampled.
