Datun the Veritas report also failed to examine that Aimee Challenor was trustee of Coventry Pride too. That the measures implemented re accompanying David Challenor woud have meant that Aimee Challenor (who it was established 'did not understand Safeguarding) could have been the person accompanying David Challenor. THat as a trustee, Aimee would/should have either provided or being aware of whatever was disclosed to Coventry Pride.
Its a significant gap.
Trustees of charities have particular responsibiities with regards Safeguarding.

I see Andy Hayley isn't having any of it.

I can't believe they won't be mentioning the trans issue, and how it shuts off dissent.

Sorry R0wantrees yes, I was paraphrasing.

They took action. More action than the Greens.

And she was saying it was because they didn't have enough information and then wondered out loud whether or not pride had more information than she had.

When, in my opinion, knowing he has been prosecuted for sexual crimes is all the information you need. Or indeed any crimes.

The lifestream kept going off, so I didn't hear a lot more.

(The transcripts are published at the end of each day.)

She says that the local Pride who immediately severed ties with David Challinor may have known more about it than they did.

Aimee Challenor was a trustee of Coventry Pride.

They did not 'imediately sever ties' but implemented a series of restrictions on David Challenor's involvement, including one that he had to be accompanied by a Coventry Pride representative (trustee?) at events where there were children present.

She says that the local Pride who immediately severed ties with David Challinor may have known more about it than they did.

What else do you need to know other than he has been prosecuted for sex offences?

She doesn't look in the least bit contrite, to me.

In my opinion people didn't immediately do what they would have done in any other circumstances, because they're frightened of being called transphobic. She herself says that there have been other cases like this, and they reacted immediately. But is saying that in this instance they didn't, due to lack of info.

When Aimee, they accused them all of being transphobic, anyway.

I have no trouble believing that they felt unable to act. It doesn't make it any the less spineless.

The first witness will be Liz Reason on behalf of the Green Party

Interesting link. Thank you.

She says she's not aware of any complaints that were made about Challenor. Surely some people complained?

AuntieCJ · 14/03/2019 10:38

About time. Devious person.

truthisarevolutionaryact · 14/03/2019 10:37

Thank you. Just listening now. Do you know who the woman being interviewed is?
