The only jobs where people are discriminated based on nationality are any jobs in places like MI5. Otherwise as long as the person has the right to work in the UK then they have to be considered by law. Having the relevant experience is something that UK citizens are also discriminated against, so it's a 2 way street in that regards.
The OP has blatantly said that he doesn't wish to be in the UK, yet he wants to extend (and has extended it) a visa that he has never used, or ever intends to use by the sounds of it. As such, why should his visa have been extended in the first place? His only contribution to the UK economy has been to pay the fee to have the visa extended.
for one, MI5 is not the only place, this exists most places but not evidently, hence the use of the word 'subtle'. Essentially what you are talking about is those jobs which require security clearance. If you have observed jobsites in UK, been in contact with agents anytime, you will know they mention in bold lettrs "SECURITY CLEARANCE REQUIRED". So the hsmp guys wont even bother applying there. Here we are talking of all the jobs and the following experiences which does not require any such thing
Since no one denies job bluntly on your face based on your nationality, it is more of a hidden agenda. So, tha 'law' you talk about cannot do anything.
As I said, I dont support this MSI guy as well for his unwillingness and expectation for things to be served on a platter without him giving nothing in return to the economy..
No one expects a red carpet treatment, but what we expect is the country holds true to the policies its government has implemented(equal rights, people with HSMP considered for all jobs except those requiring security clearance, no discrimination). The same policies which have influenced people to come on visas and work. The immigrant can adjust to the host country but not to its untold negatives like discrimination, arrogance
et al
