RegisterHer: Chinese student Hao Li, 28, jailed and warned she faces deportation over false rape claims against serving police officer.

/ Mike Buchanan / 3 Comments

Interesting. Details posted on RegisterHer, here. The start of the piece:

“A Chinese student who made up false rape claims against a serving policeman has been jailed and told she faces possible deportation.

Hao Li, 29, was warned by a judge that her conduct risked deterring ‘genuine victims from coming forward’.

A court also heard the accusation had a serious impact on the police officer, who was arrested and held in cells for 35 hours before being suspended for five months.

It was only due to the ‘foresight’ of the officer, who had set his phone to record an earlier conversation between the pair and left it on, recording the sexual encounter, that he was not charged. 

Li, a master’s degree student, was charged with perverting the course of justice but fled Britain before the case could be heard.

She was subsequently arrested at Manchester airport after arriving on a return flight and remanded in custody last July…

The judge told her she would serve about half of the six-year sentence in custody before being released on licence, when she will probably be deported to China.”

High Court ruling against Palestine Action terror ban will convince far-left activists they can ‘hold UK to ransom’, warns ex anti-extremism tsar

/ Mike Buchanan / Leave a comment

Outrageous. We can but hope a future Reform UK government will reverse the politicisation of the judiciary. An extract:

“Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp MP also backed Ms Mahmood’s appeal and accused Palestine Action of being bent on ‘intimidation, destruction, and violence’. 

He said: ‘Palestine Action repeatedly invades secure sites, sabotages military aircraft, attacks police officers and causes millions in criminal damage. It is organised political violence and cannot be tolerated.’

While the judges found that the decision should be quashed, they warned that the group remains banned pending Ms Mahmood’s appeal. 

However, this distinction appears to have been lost on the Met Police, which said it would now stop arresting activists who express support for Palestine Action and merely ‘gather evidence’ against them instead.”

Esther Baker, 43, accused of false sex abuse claims against John Hemming and the late Roy Jenkins, ex-Birmingham MPs, to stand trial.

/ Mike Buchanan / 1 Comment

Interesting. The end of the piece:

“Charge sheets state Baker falsified allegations of abuse by ex-Liberal Democrat MP for Birmingham Yardley John Hemming and the late Lib Dem peer and Labour Home Secretary Roy Jenkins, who represented Southwark, Birmingham Stechford and Glasgow Hillhead in Parliament.

She is also accused of falsely implicating Simon Cole, the former chief constable of Leicestershire Police, who died in 2022, as having aided or abetted the commission of sexual offences against her.

A fourth charge alleges Baker wrongly claimed she was a victim of abuse by men on Cannock Chase, as well as other outdoor locations, private houses and unknown places. The counts relate to a period between December 31, 2014 and September 19, 2020.”

Children allowed to change gender at primary school

/ Mike Buchanan / Leave a comment

A piece in The Guardian. The title above is from a Telegraph piece, while The Guardian headline is the less controversial “Gender guidance for English primary school pupils permits use of different pronouns”. From the piece in The Guardian:

“Primary school-age children who question their gender could be allowed to use different pronouns under long-awaited government guidance on the subject…

The guidance will be statutory, meaning schools have to abide by it. It has been welcomed by some education union leaders, and the education secretary, Bridget Phillipson, said the aim was to provide pragmatic advice and not use the issue as a “political football”…

It says it is “not for schools and colleges to initiate any action” over gender questioning, and that the advice focuses solely on circumstances where a child or their parent raises the issue.”
