I honestly thought this was going to be about recent weather.

Took a while though. Nearly a decade ago the CBI's own DG described it as having a "macho" culture.

Have you noticed how it always rains after a dry spell?

Quite how the CBI has survived so long is a mystery. It has been spectacularly wrong on just about every decision it has ever taken or every pronouncement it has made. Hopefully this scandal will put it (and its members) out of their collective misery.

I didn't really think it through, but if it had been, say, Muslim taxi drivers, I suspect the response would have been different. You could have asked "Why men?", but I guess the assumption is that it tends to be men that behave inappropriately.
