The lack of protection of the term therapist is incredibly bad too -- and even those that are regulated act incredibly incredibly slowly on regulation.

It also explicitly rejected Dr Upton editing the notes.

So the reason there's no mention is that the judgement found entirely for Dr Upton, ruled she'd been harassed and bullied by SP, and was a lot more credixble, with supporting ecidence, than she. So that's why.

The Judgement found that Dr Upton's evidence was credible.

It also ruled that Peggie had harassed her.

As it happens, a member of a minority being confronted at work by someone who chose to get her alone, blockign the exit, making hate comments is something you can find scary regardless of size

I wonder how much of that reflects that presumably a large portion of those voters voted SNP in 2015/9?

The parts finding that she deliberately confronted Upton alone, and tha tthis amounted to bullying and harassment is kinda importanat.

"Some small boys say edgy things" and "British public schools have a very fucked up culture" are certainly true but sorry, no. Farage's reported behaviour was extreme and obsessive and he knows we know that, which is why this desperate stuff is getting published

The exceptionally, exceptionally depressing corollary to that is that you end up with "parties on the left are correct to not take action against their openly transphobic parliamentarians, because they could sue"

J Cherry's been explicit: she believes only her legal threats prevented her expulsion

Particularly given the tribunal fif din fact find that Peggie's behaviour towards r Upton amounted to illegal harassedment and (explicitly) that it breached her article 8 ECHR rights.

And on c), it coming at the same time as the loss of Trent, who Salah had a great partnership with also has to hurt.

It also explicitly found, despite the fact Peggie had been cleared in the disciplinary, due to insufficient evidence, that thanks to additional evidence they had, and statements under oath...

They found Peggie had harassed Upton in a hate incident.

Very much unsure what NHS Fife can do with that.

I also want to express my love for Dr Beth Upton. That woman truly has more courage than any of us.

She wasn't his wife at that point (and he wasn't the PM) but absolutely.
