Sandie Peggie, a nurse at Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy (VH), has brought claims in the employment tribunal against her employer; Fife Health Board (the Board) and another employee, Dr B Upton. Ms Peggie’s claims are of sexual harassment, harassment related to a protected belief, indirect discrimination and victimisation.

Just in case people might be interested in supporting other women facing a nightmare Employment Tribunal, there's also Sarah Holdman who was Harassed and Victimised for supporting Women’s Rights. You can find her crowdfunder by searching on those terms.

Also, I'm bringing people's attention to a post by @FayeRC: "To those who don't know me, I have filed a similar employment tribunal complaint against a large public sector employer in England's side, also represented by Naomi Cunningham. Second preliminary hearing will be in February. More info available on CrowdJustice.com, pls search for Faye Russell-Caldicott."

Can't actually believe what I'm hearing, this is MENTAL.

Phew!

From the last thread concerns about his wife. Is she an actual woman?

Oh c'mon Judge you know what a bloody woman is!

Still on biologically male and female

I don't think it's been confirmed.

OMG; he’s challenging the judge now

Catching up again. Place mark.

Did that judge just call him victim and then change quickly to defendant?

The world has gone mad

I think she is.

DU is just being contrary now

Go for it NC - well done

From the last thread concerns about his wife. Is she an actual woman?

Pretty sure she is.

No the judge wants to start winding up!!

PLEASE end this madness!

Judge subtly reminding NC that Upton has already stolen biologically female by insisting he is biologically female.

So can't use that.

He's trying to control everyone now, I'm starting to feel he is a very dangerous man.

I just do not understand why a judge allows these language games and pretends he doesn't know what simple words mean. It's insulting to the judicial process.

Wow!

Oooooooh. Nice NC.

A blinder by NC.

NC - seeking to assert dominance, yes!
