Appalling. What an indictment of the police and the CPS. Key extracts:

In a tearful courtroom confession, a daughter has admitted using the best-selling sadomasochistic sex novel Fifty Shades of Grey as the basis for a series of false rape claims against her father…

Defence barrister Cathy McCulloch had, she said, never read the novel until she was called in late to defend the father, who was accused of eight incestuous rapes over a six-year period…

In her blog about the case, Ms McCulloch said the prospects for the father initially looked bleak.

“His daughter had given a compelling interview to the police and my client had absolutely no real defence other than ‘I did not do it’,” she wrote…

Nothing might have come of this quirk, however, were it not for the fact that during Ms McCulloch’s otherwise routine first meeting with the father – on  the day of the trial – he happened to mention that his daughter’s favourite book was “about a millionaire who takes a young woman under his wing and ‘teaches her about art’.”

“He had no idea what Fifty Shades of Grey was about,” added Ms McCulloch.  “Neither I nor my instructing solicitor’s representative had read the book (honest!).”…

Ms McCulloch, a former police officer who is now a barrister at Church Court Chambers, persuaded the judge to adjourn the case so she could spend an afternoon and an evening reading the novel.

Within seven minutes of her beginning her cross-examination, the daughter burst into tears in the witness box and admitted she had made the whole thing up to teach her strict father a lesson.

Describing a cross-examination she had expected to last between two and three hours, Ms McCulloch wrote: “I started gently to put the complainant at ease. She agreed her father was strict, and that she was really annoyed with him for “ruining her life”.

“I then went straight to my final question – that she was so angry with her father that she had made this all up. She wavered.

“I raised the striking similarities between her interview and the book. She suddenly broke and said I was absolutely right. She had made the whole thing up because she was angry with her father and wanted to teach him a lesson.

“I asked her whether she had got all the ideas from Fifty Shades of Grey. She confirmed this book, and others – which she named. After seven minutes we were finished.

Just published. An extract from the article:

(Baroness) Corston, who wrote an influential report on vulnerable women in the criminal justice system in 2007, which went on to inform government policy on the matter, said there was indisputable evidence that women are treated by the courts more harshly.

Let’s not beat about the bush here:

Baroness Corston is demonstrably LYING.

Two William Collins articles come to mind. The first explores the astonishing justice gender gap in the UK, which means that if men were sentenced as leniently as women by the courts, five out of six men in British prisons wouldn’t be there – here. The second is The Corston Report – A Case Study in Gynocentrism.

Our thanks to Stuart for this. At the end of the piece the paper poses the following question:

Should Philip Davies be suspended from the Tory party?

84% of the people who’ve responded so far have said ‘No’.

At last, an intelligent BBC piece about a men’s issue.

Philip Davies made a stout defence of his excellent conference speech on Friday evening, on the BBC Radio 4 programme The World Tonight. Our thanks to Kevin for posting the piece (4:05) on our YouTube channel. Questions spouted by the haughty female interviewer included, within the space of a few seconds:

Do you not see feminism as a good thing?

Do you see feminism as a bad thing?

Our thanks to John for pointing us to this piece by James Delingpole for Breitbart. He describes it as ‘the best Philip Davies article yet!’

Our thanks to John for this, published earlier today.

Herbert Purdy is a noted British blogger on feminism, and the video of his well-received conference presentation, ‘Their Angry Creed’, is here. Shortly before the conference his book Their Angry Creed: The shocking history of feminism, and how it is destroying our way of life was published internationally, and he signed many copies at the conference. Further signed copies are available from his website (first hyperlink in this blog piece).

We couldn’t recommend the book more highly to people wishing to understand the purpose, nature, and history of angry feminists’ attacks on Western civilization over the past 45 years in particular. It’s also available in e-book editions.

Well argued. There is no rational case to be made for female combat troops. They would be a danger to themselves and to the many men who would prioritise saving female colleagues’ lives over mission success, regardless of the consequences.

Our thanks to a supporter for this.
