I would be happy to be considered for stuff like this in future, for venues in the north of England.
I would hope that whoever gives the talk would try to provide an objective and factual description of the types of career that are open to archaeology graduates, and how to get into them.
I would be concerned if the talk was given in a way that expressed any individual's strong views about the ethics and competence of people in certain branches of the profession, particularly if those views are expressed in terms of sweeping generalisations - something not uncommon amongst BAJR-ites.
That approach is fine if your objective is to campaign on issues that you feel strongly about - but I don't think it is appropriate in this kind of educational/careers advice role.
