Some women’s utter shamelessness knows no bounds. One such woman is clearly Rani Abraham (41) who recently revealed some private emails of Richard Scudamore, chief executive of the Premier League, to the media. Not behaviour you’re expect from a ‘personal assistant’, to say the least, and presumably in breach of her contract terms.
When I started working in the business sector in 1979, a few years after Ms Abraham was born, these women were called ‘secretaries’. Ten years later they were increasingly often called ‘personal assistants’ and were being paid more for doing less, as the advent of computers had made their workload significantly less onerous.
Piling insult upon injury, Ms Abraham is now going to sue the Premier League. A Daily Mail article on the matter. An extract:
The Premier League insists she was specifically told not to look at his private emails. In legal papers, Miss Abraham brands the Premier League an ‘institutionally sexist old boys’ club’ and the Football Association ‘not fit for purpose’. She alleges that the FA chose to ‘cover up’ the scandal when it should have charged Scudamore with bringing the game into disrepute.
Her solicitor Lawrence Davies, of law firm Equal Justice, revealed she is seeking compensation for lost earnings and hurt feelings as well as aggravated and punitive damages. Miss Abraham brands the Premier League an ‘institutionally sexist old boys’ club’.
Lawrence Davies said: ‘The compensation she is seeking is £150,000 in total – a tiny fraction of the Premier League’s £3 billion annual revenue.’ Awards of punitive damages by tribunals are virtually unheard of in this country.
Mr Davies said: ‘There is no limit to the amount a tribunal can award in damages for sex discrimination. It is only a matter of time before a UK tribunal adopts the U.S. approach to punitive damages to kill discriminatory practices that still flourish here.’
So let me get this straight. She carried out an action which was highly unethical and presumably in breach of her contract – but let’s not forget that women are generally above the law – then her solicitor seeks £150,000 compensation on the grounds that the sum is… er… ‘a tiny fraction of the Premier League’s £3 billion annual revenue.’ Oh, well, that’s all right then…
I would hope the Premier League would sue this damnable woman for breach of contract – but of course they won’t. I hope she loses her case, has to pay legal costs, never again finds employment, and fails to find a man stupid enough to maintain her. And I hope any men seeking to employ PAs in future make every effort to employ male PAs. With four out of seven unemployed people in the UK being men, many of them IT-literate, it shouldn’t prove a big challenge. Many of these men would surely be delighted to earn £40,000 for doing cushy office-based jobs.
Justice for Men & Boys 
I screamed blue murder on the Guardian thread about it – that was her breach of contract, the COmputer Misuse Act, Data Protection Act.. oh – and I think theft as well?

Women like this are so steeped in what they believe is their moral obligation to root out every instance of the social ‘offence’ of sexism, something they see everywhere and in everything, and which only feminism has declared is offensive. They truly believe they are justified in this sort of behaviour, it is astonishing really.
Ms Abraham has not only lost all vestige of any claim she might have had to integrity in her work, she will undoubtedly find that her ideologically driven actions will prevent her finding employment in the future. How can she not see that trust is so easily lost, and her beliefs are no excuse for such unspeakable irresponsibility?
These women really believe they are right to put their ideology before their contractual and ethical duty. That is what feminism is doing to women, it is robbing them of their human agency and their moral fibre. What world do we now live in that women can be like this?
Ms Abraham is an adult, deemed to have agency, and she exercised that agency in what she did, so she must be accountable. Yet she seems to believe she is justified sufficiently in what she did to seek punitive damages. In other words, she wants to punish those whom she has first punished, betrayed, and damaged. She has shown no moral scruple, yet she believes she is entitled to compensation, presumably in the belief that she acted in a just cause. No she did not. Feminism’s crusade against alleged sexism is not a just cause.
Feminism has induced women to believe that they have rights to equality, and, in that endeavour, no responsibility to exercise even the most basic of human responsibilites. This woman has destroyed her own personal integrity, which is precious beyond jewels, as she will no doubt now realise.
Her chances of ever being considered worthy of getting any job in which trust, discretion and integrity are implicit have been blown to pieces – by her. She has tarred herself with the brush of being seen as a feminist subversive who will ‘out’ any boss who does not toe the line of her ideology. Now who would employ a woman like that? How duped these women are!
I think Mike Buchana’s point is well made. It is undoubtedly getting to the stage where to be a feminist woman in a position of trust in an organisation is to be seen as a potential subversive, and, therefore, better to select a man and be safe.

Don’t hire women, simple as that.
Even feminists don’t want to hire women (although they still dispute gender behavioral differences)
LOL
