It’s pretty fair to say that the British are taxed to death but get very poor public services despite high and sadly rising taxation. The National Health Service for example swallows huge amounts of money each year but provides the British subject with a service that compares poorly with the healthcare services provided by other advanced nations with comprehensive medical services.

But there is one thing that the public sector is really ‘good’ at and that is wasting money on what are called non-jobs, positions that do not add any value or quality to the services provided, but provide jobs for the middle class left and allow the organisation in question to virtue signal. A prime example of these sort of worthless non-jobs that do nothing except eat taxes for no reason are diversity and inclusion positions.

In previous articles of this type pointing out the extreme waste of money that these non-jobs represent, I’ve mostly concentrated on the National Health Service. However the problem of non-jobs and wasting money on diversity and inclusion posts is not sadly confined to the healthcare sector.

I recently found a job on the Civil Service Jobs website that shows that it’s not just the NHS that is spunking money up the wall on diversity and inclusion guff. Other government departments and quangos are doing the same.

Ofgem the power generation and energy distribution regulator is also spending taxpayers money on stuff that many of us would prefer them not to be wasting money on. Ofgem are currently looking at hiring three Diversity and Inclusion managers, one for London and one each for Cardiff and Glasgow with salaries in the region of £60,600 – £82,820. Even though this is a fixed term rather than a permanent contract this still represents a disgusting waste of public money.

This would be a monstrous waste of money even at the best of times but it’s even worse when the time is now when ordinary people’s energy bills are skyrocketing due to market driven price rises and the additional taxation effects of the government’s environmental policies. I can’t see how this sort of job can be justified after all it’s not as if electricity is racist or something is it?

Just take a look at the screenshots below and weep at the utter and disgusting waste that these extremely well paid positions represent. Remember also the next time that some representative of the public sector pleads poverty because they can’t deliver the services that they should provide and which you by way of taxation are paying for, that your taxes are paying for worthless guff like this.
