Fuck yes Naomi.

Im in bed with the flu and this tribunal will give me life while I’m bitching and coughing. I’m very excited.

Im guessing CE will have been on excavation all weekend.

NebulousSupportPostcard · 17/11/2025 12:49

Oh god this is so good.

weegielass · 17/11/2025 12:50

I can’t be the only one wishing we could actually watch live

Oh my giddy aunt.

That Trotskyite vs Marxist-Leninist article is hilarious. I'd love to have sat in on that tribunal and watched the judge's face as the issues were explained.

I was talking to an older communist party member a while back. A union organiser since the nineteen sixties.
There had been a meeting of trade unionists who were retired from work, but not from being politically active.
I asked her how their motion had gone.
Kitty, they bussed a load of fecking Trots in from [deleted] the bastards!

I was wondering if the 2nd recusal was still relating to Boyd - didn't she leave on grounds of illhealth meaning that no recusal is recorded - I thought perhaps NC wanted it on the record as recusal rather than an ill health withdrawal

PerformativeBewilderment · 17/11/2025 12:55

@Boiledbeetle loving all your titles and accreditations!

Reminds me of Red Dwarf, where Rimmer uses BSC and SSC as post nominals but they actually refer to Bronze Swimming Certificate and Silver Swimming Certificate 😂

Is it just me who keeps reading "BFF" in tweets as best friend forever?

NoBinturongsHereMate · 17/11/2025 12:58

Nick is catching up on the pellets interviews.

Boiledbeetle · 17/11/2025 12:39

Is it normal to request a second recusal once the judge has refused the first recusal?

I've never ever seen anything like this at an Employment Tribunal.
And I've been to scores of them over the years.
Albeit not in NI.

SexRealistic · 17/11/2025 12:58

Anyone around to c&p from Nick?

OP posts:

He's just got to 'I'm what they call an employment judge'.

ickky · 17/11/2025 13:00

I can do it @SexRealistic

Get the next thread ready.

KittyWilkinson · 17/11/2025 13:00

Sorry all, not on X so can't c and p.

And then you both end up as Professors?

We could share it out and switch it about, I'm easy on the detail. I quite fancy Dame, or Rvd to give an air of spiritual superiority maybe.

@boiledbeetle Could chose something fitting - alliteration maybe? Can you be the Blessed Boiled Beetle (non)officially?

I wonder if the second application is related to the judge
Allowing SC to speak to NC like that (eg lipstick on a pig)

Saying they were going to do something that legally they couldn't (taking MD off oath) which suggests incompetentence

Also suggests bias because that point she didn't even know what the recusal application was about, she just saw her arse at them being absent and called it disgusting and made a threat to do something illegal in response

In which case NC may have made it to another judge - I believe that is allowed.

Is he tweeting this, or are you reading over his shoulder?

That sounds quite possible doesn't it?
I'd say they've spent the weekend building a case on McKeown and/or the judge: Since you wonderful ladies here don't seem to have found much real dirt on McKeown, could it be the judge? I'm still sceptical about the claim that Boyd had to run like a gazelle to the judge about her pain, and also, if Boyd has been faking her CV, what does that say about the recruitment process for the tribunal? Did the judge really not know - and shouldn't she have?

Also “Prof. Cyc.” - after all you have that Cycling proficiency certificate. A certificate has got to make it official. It makes you a certified prof.

From NW

The tribunal judge has directed that in the interests of open justice the recusal application will be heard at 1.30pm today. I will live tweet and should be given access to the written application and response.

KittyWilkinson · 17/11/2025 13:04

Anyone been nicked for defamation yet as per A24 posting last night?
I thought not

I can see today's going to be another low-productivity day...

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 17/11/2025 13:05

Not back to work until 1345 so hopefully the recusal is snappy so I can watch it unfold in real time..

I knew NC wouldn't just be having a relaxing weekend off Grin

An excellent plan!

Please may I join as a Board Member?

I am a Professor, dontcha know...

Yes!

I will make you a sign, a badge and some business cards.

You can write some slides to present about how @boiledbeetle has shifted so many of her autoclaves that are used so successfully by me that grants have been given to fund others to buy more which must mean that they're good because she's sold lots and I'm using lots and....

Now we've got you to tell other people how to get grants to buy and use the autoclaves so they must be good and we must be amazing!

Now we can go to a parliamentary discussion - yay!
