Three more blithering idiots mis-representing correlation as causation – Natalia San Juan, Verónica Ucrós and María Castellanos (Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP)
Ridiculous. As followers of this blog know, even back in 2012 plenty of evidence existed to demonstrate a causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial DECLINE. I presented it that year to House of Commons and House of Lords inquiries.

Though the use of slavery legislation is unusual, such cases are not uncommon, you may recall the cases of Professor Stephen Hawking and Eddie Kidd. More common are cases where mothers use their adult disabled son or daughter as an income generator, using what can be quite substantial benefits to fund their party lifestyle rather than the care the benefits are given for. From experience, it is very difficult to arrange such “extractions” because the police and courts are very reluctant to be seen as going against “Mum”, it being such a sacred status in our society. So generally you’ll find every social service dept. has a number of these situations it’s monitoring and trying to get the support of family members and gather evidence. In a couple of instances we were aided by one of the parade of “boyfriends” such “Mums” typically have who had a conscience. Of course most parents are supportive and caring of their adult diisabled offspring but I’m afraid this sort of abuse is far mre common than people may think. Really aided by the stereotype of women, especially mothers being uniformly saintly.

Spain’s top criminal court has opened a preliminary investigation into the country’s football federation president Luis Rubiales after he kissed player Jenni Hermoso on the lips.
A piece on the BBC. An extract, showing that Spain’s top criminal court has accepted Jenni Hermoso’s (latest) account of events, and thereby dismissed Luis Rubiales’s account, before the preliminary ‘investigation’ has started. Another ‘guilty’ man is forced to prove his innocence in an anti-male judicial system. An extract:

The court said it was opening the investigation in light of the “unequivocal nature” of Hermoso’s statements, saying it was necessary “to determine their legal significance”.
“Given the public statements made by Jennifer Hermoso, the sexual act she was subjected to by (Luis) Rubiales was not consensual,” a statement said.
