‘We need more men to be teachers’, Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson says, with boys’ behaviour ‘the defining issue of our time’

Our thanks to Nigel for this. He writes:

After all the years of evidence of “man deserts”, chaotic families and single parent families being linked to gangs, knife crime, crime in general and the disintegration of life in “sink estates”, suddenly following a drama on TV – Adolescence – a feminist Labour minister thinks boys should have male role models at school and “at home”. “But only one in four of the teachers in our schools are men. Just one in seven in nursery and primary. One in 33 in early years. And since 2010 the number of teachers in our schools has increased by 28,000 – but just 533 of those are men. That’s extraordinary.”

Well, yes, indeed it’s extraordinary, but who has been crowing for years about all those “amazing women”? Which group thinks its just fine that thousands of boys fail in school because in later life a few become CEOS? And which party has led the charge against the “oppressive” traditional family, excluding fathers whenever possible? And now they want male role models? I expect no apologies for decades of feminism.

UK poised to host 2035 Women’s World Cup… er, being the only bidder.

I can barely contain my excitement. The US will host the 2031 event, also after being the only bidder.

Ella Dorn: “We need to talk about femcels. A growing number of women hate the opposite sex.”

An interesting piece in The Spectator (£). I posted the following:

At the age of 67, with two divorces behind me, I can summarise my attitude to life in four words:

“No wife, happy life.”

Women in general (and feminists in particular) are responsible for the phenomenon of MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way). As one man said to me the other day, “Why buy a taxi, when you can hire one when you need it?”

The Brian Buckle case – calls to amend payout rules for wrongly convicted

A tip of the hat to Sean BW Parker and Brian Buckle for this interview (video, 30:19).

A BBC piece on Brian’s case, published two weeks ago. It starts with this:

“I just burst out crying,” says Brian Buckle, recalling the moment he read the rejection letter from the Ministry of Justice after applying for compensation.

It said it accepted Brian was “innocent” of the sexual offences he had been wrongly imprisoned for, but he had failed to prove “beyond a reasonable doubt” that he had not committed the crimes.

Brian had been completely cleared of the sex abuse charges he had been jailed for in 2017.

A five-year legal battle had culminated in the Court of Appeal finding his conviction unsafe. Brian’s legal team produced a detailed defence including new witnesses and fresh forensic evidence, at a three-week retrial in 2023. The jury unanimously returned a verdict of “not guilty” in just over an hour.

During the struggle to clear his name, Brian used savings and family loans to pay for his legal fees – totalling £500,000. This is equal to the total amount of compensation that Brian was able to apply for.

The letter from the Ministry of Justice came nearly a year after he first submitted his application. The assessor, who had never spoken to Brian or his legal team, said he wasn’t eligible for a pay-out because there was not enough proof that he hadn’t carried out the offences. [J4MB emphases.]

“What do I need to do to prove that I’m an innocent person?” says Brian. “I’ve lost five years of my life, my job, my pension. People are absolutely gobsmacked when you tell them I’ve been refused compensation.”

The Ministry of Justice told the BBC it acknowledges the “grave impact of miscarriages of justice” and is “committed to supporting individuals in rebuilding their lives”.

For hundreds of years it has been accepted that someone is presumed innocent until a court of law finds them guilty.

However, following a small but significant law change in 2014, if a victim of a miscarriage of justice in England and Wales wants to receive compensation, they must not only be cleared, but also demonstrate they are innocent – in effect “reversing the burden of proof”, according to Brian’s barrister, Stephen Vullo KC.

“It’s an almost impossibly high hurdle over which very few people can jump,” he says.
