One thought on “Male police officers win gender discrimination case

  1. Good. The action is clearly illegal. The difficulty is being civil law it requires men (and women who are supportive) to initiate cases to establish “precedents”. In this case these brave men had the practical support of their Union.

    Of course this isn’t an “isolated incident” because all too often people believe that the Law allows discrimination against men. Partly because so much of our media and public services simply copy stories from the US as if its the same as here. And feminist organisations promote the idea!! The result is that what is allowed by law “positive action” is turned into positive discrimination. Its not that I’m all for the Equality Act, but routinely men are being discriminated against in ways that are un lawful in this country. And while we have the Act men need to know their actual rights, not what the feminists say are their rights. In my dreams some wealthy individual would fund both publicity and cases of such illegal direct discrimination, specially in sectors without Unionisation. Where an individual man/small group has to fund their own challenge without support. a. because men in general might actually experience their rights in law. b. because it would be a part of showing what actual “equality” looks like if there are actually equal rights and responsibilities. Rather than the current situation where one sex is privileged with additional “rights” and at the same time protected from responsibility.

    It has by the way always amazed me that the US has so many instances of direct discrimination on the basis of race and/or sex when you’d think they’d be champions of equal rights! In my innocence how “DEI” practices could ever be line with their constitution is beyond me.
