Yeah, enjoy your time(s) in Smith St., DP - where did you dine this time ?<br /><br />Anyhow, No 1 from the scuttling sauropsids of the lizard Oz:<br /><br />"Ms Ward is hardly a victim of those who would strangle free speech. La trobe University should hold her and others to account."<br /><br />And so it did, so it did, and this was the result:<br /><br />"La Trobe University has withdrawn all allegations of misconduct against controversial academic Roz Ward and reinstated the Safe Schools co-founder, effective immediately.<br /><br />The university's backflip came just hours after it received a threatening legal letter from Maurice Blackburn Lawyers. The firm's employment law expert Josh Bornstein argued that suspending someone over a private Facebook post was "unlawful" and contravened the university's enterprise agreement, the Fair Work Act and Victoria's Equal Opportunity Act.<br /><br />He said the law firm would commence legal proceedings in the Federal Court if the university failed to meet these demands by 10am on Monday."<br /><br />Heh. Genuflect, genuflect, genuflect oh scuttling sauropsids.<br /><br />Not only, but also No 2:<br /><br />"Beyondblue chairman Jeff Kennett yesterday called for Ms Ward to resign from the role, saying her “extreme political views” rendered her “ineligible to be involved in any program …. in schools”. Mr Kennett, whose charity has provided almost $600,000 over the past two years to La Trobe University’s Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, which administers the Safe Schools program in Victoria, added: “You don’t want extremists in there. Her behaviour and her statement clearly indicate a belief which goes well beyond the conditions of which I am prepared to have this subject taught in schools.”"<br /><br />I should have known it was too good to be true, shouldn't I. But then old Malcolm Fraser didn't become fully operationally human in just one step. Maybe there's still time for Jeffy. Oh, but he really is a "precious snowflake" isn't he.<br /><br /><br />GrueBleennoreply@blogger.com
