Spicy X,
You stated,
"The UK is probably one of the most nepotistic, collusional, and prejudicial pilot hiring markets around, like it or not it is a fact."
Nepotistic: Happens everywhere, would be most suprised if the UK was the most "around"
Collusional: My dictionary states (Collusion, collusive, collusively,but not collusional)"Secret and illegal co-operation for the purpose of fraud or other criminal activity" Really?? in the pilot hiring market??
Prejudicial: You will have to explain exactly what you mean by "round". I took it to mean around the world. If this is correct I can assure you that the UK is not the most prejudicial in pilot hiring, or any other hiring.
What you state as IMHO would be all I would accept as a fact, I am quite certain I do not know " everything about everything".

Oh my goodness gracious me
A wee bit of frivolity, meaning ,no disrespect,
"The First Officer." ( Been there , done that.)
I am the First Officer, I sit on the right,
It's up to me to quite and bright;
I never talk back for I have regrets,
But I have to remember what the Captain forgets.
I make out the flight plan and study the weather,
Pull up the gear, stand by to feather;
Make out the mail forms & do the reporting,
And fly the old crate while the Captain is courting.
I take the readings, adjust the power,
Put on the heaters when we're in for a shower;
Tell him were we are on the darkest night,
And do all the bookwork without any light.
I call for my Captain & buy him cokes;
I always laugh at his corny jokes,
And once in a while when his landings are rusty,
I always come through with, "By gosh it's gusty"
All in all I'm a general stooge,
As I sit on the right of the man I call "Scrooge " ,
I guess you think that is past understanding,
But maybe some day, he will give me a landing .
Author, Unknown to me.
Is it work or pleasure for the Capt. to go bed with the Hostess?
Definately pleasure!
For if it was work, the First Officer would have to do it
Cheers
