Judge criticises Fieldfisher for mishandling sexual misconduct claims leading to associate Djamshid Rustambekov’s unfair dismissal

Interesting. The man who was the victim of a false allegation is named, the woman who made the false allegation isn’t. An extract:

“The Hilton Hotel also provided a written description of the CCTV footage covering the accessible toilet, which states: “According to CCTV it seems consensual from both sides. Female A initiates a hug, Male A honours this. They are hugging for quite a while then start kissing and Male A gently directs towards the disabled toilet while hugging. Female A does not resist, no force was used at all.”

Despite the inconsistencies, the judge found it “entirely odd” that the firm’s investigative partner chose to question only Rustambekov about the description of the CCTV footage and did not question Colleague 1.

The investigative partner [J4MB: a woman, Ramatu Banga, what are the chances?] told the tribunal that she concluded Colleague 1 had given “false” evidence regarding the events immediately before entering the accessible toilet, though she did not believe it was done deliberately. [J4MB emphasis. Obviously, no woman would lie ‘deliberately’. Perish the thought.]

“I find there is no other way to put this. Colleague 1’s version of events immediately before the accessible toilet incident is wholly unsupported by the CCTV footage description and wholly incredible,” the judge said. “However, the issue is whether she deliberately gave false evidence. Having given careful consideration to all of the documentary and oral evidence, I can find no basis to underpin [the partner’s] reasoning that Colleague 1 did not deliberately give false evidence.” [J4MB emphasis.]

This, the judge added, “severely damages her credibility as a witness of fact”.

Are you ‘mankeeping’? How women are bearing the brunt of the male loneliness epidemic.

World to end, women most affected.

Our thanks to Nigel for this. He writes:

“A good example of here of the sheer mean-spiritedness and self-absorbed modern feminism modern men are familiar with. In another era wives may well have taken a lead in social networks given that “their man” had limited opportunities due to work commitments. Even when working “family friendly” hours for women meant practically it was easier to spend sorting social events and even in work as we know women tend to be in overwhelmingly female occupations much more local to their home.

Is it really such a “burden” for the sex that delights in talking and has more spare time as the kids grow, to arrange social stuff? And if she sees her man “fall off a cliff” at retirement, human to want to help? No, it seems the sex that spends far more time working to make the money that generally is 76% of the income that supports them both, of which 80% she spends (again because she gets to the shops etc.) should suck it up and not get any help at all.

After all, men are exhorted to be supportive, listen, help and fund their spouse’s every thing because women are “amazing” but also emotionally exhausted and anxious. But never be helped by the person who is supposed to love them? Can’t see men thinking much of such a deal.”

Matt Goodwin: Trump’s ‘Great Realignment’

Interesting. An extract:

“Look at the dynamics of Trump’s support and you’ll immediately see how he doubled down on this, mobilising the very same groups that were pushed rightwards by this emerging shift eight years ago and which first propelled him into the White House. According to exit polls, he performed strongest among White, male, non-college educated, and middle-aged Americans, the same groups that first powered his rise. He won nearly 60% of White men, two-thirds of White Americans who have not gone to college (and who the elite graduate class routinely forget outnumber them), and nearly 70% of White men without a degree. This is the backbone of the Trump revolution. [J4MB emphasis]

And when it comes to families, Trump did best of all among Dads –hardworking, taxpaying, patriotic men who are worried about their diminishing ability to provide for their families amid a rampant cost-of-living crisis, and who also worry about what a future of mass, uncontrolled illegal immigration, broken borders, rampant urban crime, and woke ideology means for the most important people of all: their children.

This isn’t just about men, though, despite what many female columnists will try and tell you in the coming days. Why? Because Trump also just won over 44% of all women, more than half of all White women, and 62% of women who do not have a degree, while also doing notably better among married than unmarried women. Yes, young college-educated women are moving sharply leftwards but Trump, much like conservatives elsewhere, is still winning over enormous numbers of women.”
