School inspector Andrew Hewston sacked for brushing water off boy’s head wins six-year unfair dismissal case against Ofsted

Our thanks to Nigel for this. He writes:

“A good example of one of Janice’s observations in her excellent essay is this story. For behind it is the assumption that somehow all males are suspect predators, so this man’s simple kindly action became a “safeguarding” issue in a way that the same casual assistance by a female Ofsted inspector would never have been. The man is assumed to be “guilty” even though the Judge finally ruling on this says he can’t find anything that says there is a “rule” to be broken. In other words the man was found to be “guilty” and sacked even though in fact the employer didn’t know what he was guilty of! In such an atmosphere where one can lose a job and be labelled a threat to children without even doing something against the “rules” it is no wonder the teaching profession finds it hard to recruit men!”

The teaching profession has for decades been edging ever closer to a female monopoly.

Judith Evans, 33, teacher who sexually abused teenage boy, jailed for only two years

Our thanks to Dougie for this. He writes:

“This one simply is outrageous, a female school teacher sexually abuses a boy but then made false sexual assault allegations against him, is sent to prison for 2 years!!!   Making false accusations alone (perverting the course of justice) is punishable with up to life imprisonment. Simply outrageous!!!”

Men in England and Northern Ireland denied life-extending prostate cancer drug abiraterone (cost to NHS: £77.00/month).

Our thanks to Jeff for this. Outrageous.

There’s no national screening programme for prostate cancer, and now men with prostate cancer in England and Northern Ireland are denied an inexpensive drug on the NHS. It hardly need be said that the NHS would pay for the drug if it were for treating a female-specific cancer. Or that more men die of prostate cancer than women die of breast cancer. Or that men on average die years earlier than women. Or that the taxes which fund the NHS come mostly from men, not women. Two-tier healthcare at its most stark.

Laura McPherson, 35, told boyfriend she was dying of cancer but truth was far more disturbing

Our thanks to Ken for this. Extracts take up the remainder of this piece.

A “wicked and devious” mum-of-two who falsely claimed she had breast cancer to con her own boyfriend out of thousands of pounds was spared jail by a judge.

Laura McPherson took advantage of Jon Leonard’s affection for her so she could profit for her own greed and gain, Derby Crown Court heard. The 35-year-old, from Derby, told the victim she needed money for treatment at a private clinic in Austria, had undergone a hysterectomy, and also falsely claimed she was receiving chemotherapy in hospital. He even sought out a leading UK cancer treatment medic to try and help her, but she claimed she was not interested and would instead find a different course of treatment…

In his impact statement, Mr Leonard said: “I honestly feel she has stolen years of my life from me. She isolated me from my friends and family and even since we separated she has been spreading lies about me. Laura told her daughter she had cancer but would never sit down and explain this to her. For the five years she pretended to have cancer she would tell me she was giving up and not going ahead with treatment. I now realise she was seeking attention. The emotional toll this has had on me is difficult to explain. Her actions have been diabolical, almost everything she told me was a lie, I feel I was deceived in the cruellest way. She has destroyed my faith in humanity.”

Laura Pitman, mitigating, said her client has no previous convictions of any kind and “accepts her behaviour spans a number of years” and that she has suffered from anxiety and depression. She said: “One perhaps wonders why a young woman behaved in the way that she has.

“She feels awful for the way she behaved. She has sought outside support to look at her behaviour. There has been no further offending by her. There’s a more constructive way Laura McPherson can be dealt with rather than custody.” A Proceeds of Crime Acts hearing, which could see her stripped of cash and assets, will take place later this year.
