Why is he not an ordinary worker?

The guy has a point about his bullying tactics.

I didn't watch all of his 'interview' with Evan Davis. BS and bluster.

Alastair Campbell now doing after dinner talks about surviving mental health issues and the stigma. Shame they didn't stop his Dodgy Dossier nonsense.

The Gaunt Bros. behind the Plebgate smear hadn't the main one come back from being bullied or something?

Perhaps Brand needs to return to his experimenting in pub toilet cubicles?

Agreed. I'm a Business Analyst, and I wouldn't describe it an anything more than an ordinary job. Putting the word "Banking" in front of it doesn't make it any more exotic.

Indeed, no further evidence required.

Probably bumpy the pay a bit though.

Possibly, but not by a huge margin. Its not a banking role, its a process/IT systems role.

Any company with a reasonable sized IT department will have Business Analysts. Its not even a particularly senior role in an IT department (usually reporting to a Project Manager).

People's attitudes to this are puerile.

The guy's (open) letter came across very well - very ordinary, very scathing of Brand.

Bit of a disservice to bellends. He's a dreadful individual and how he came to be taken seriously by anyone, even in the BBC and the Guardian, is a mystery to me.

Long winded letter but a very good account of Brand's M.O.

He might be a tit, he may not even articulate himself very much, but no one would make a tt out of themselves unless they felt strongly about something.

I think he has valid concerns about where society might be heading so there is nothing wrong with him airing them.

The danger is if he takes too much advice on how to come across, he'll just come across about as vanilla as David Cameron or one of the Balls brothers and say nothing with a lot of similarly large words.

But I do think he needs to think a bit more before he strikes. He could probably do more good if he did vs just running straight into banks.



And who gives a toss about the guys lunch going cold? Is he being serious or something? Or trying to be funny? Or ironic. It didn't come across but hey.

The guy in question cares, and why shouldn't he?
