Russel, I actually had a read of the Equality and Diversity Act 2010.
It defines seven "protected characteristics": age, disability, gender
reassignment, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation,
marriage and civil partnership and pregnancy and maternity.
I cannot find anything in it to
I won't argue with your logic, but if a group of people use "energetic" to
mean "young", then that's what it means to them (in some context). I
think "energetic" has been a known as a standard job-ad euphemism for some
time. Whether it has actually been used widely in that way, I don't know

£52k doesn't seem unrealistic but I think it's distorted by the banks &
hedge funds. Wouldn't expect to see a start-up paying that sort of salary
unless it's a betting exchange.
That being said, £25-30k does sound very low for what they're looking for

Agreed: my father is 63 and far more energetic than me. However, he'd make

Surely it is ageism to imply that energetic implies ageism? In other words,
if a person thinks that energetic implies ageism, then that person has a

otherwise they would not have considered such a rule in the first place.
