Hi, I am not much of a writer bc English is my 3rd language .................... 10 months chasing Full and Frank Disclosure @ a cost $88K and my lawyers just advised me today that the magistrate doesn't agree to issue contravention orders. Gender bias my sweet $$$$$$$$
Debra Parker was my ex wife’s lawyer. She was completely incompetent in her lack of knowledge of our finances. She lied to the court but my lawyer refused to call it out. She is only interested in how much money she can milk from the case. If she was interested in a settlement she would have taken the time to understand the finances. My offers were rejected and only got lower as we got closer to court. She had no concern for the long term irreparable damage her advice was doing to her clients relationship with her kids. Settlement only happened because my ex wife finally believed her accountant rather than Debra Parker.
My current lawyers doing the same………… 10 months chasing full n frank disclosure and cricket from my wife or her lawyers yet the judge refuses to grant the contravention orders
This is yet another brilliant & utterly objective essay on one of the pressing issues of the time shortly to become more than just that, -as more men suicide, & as women "get-on-top"..? And who cares? Don't we need de-population?
But once again this take over is all a result of men enabling them ( the feminist idealogues) to gain the powerful positions they have and it seems no man has the courage to call out their corruption and gender bias.
It is truly astonishing to see how deeply ingrained the notion that women are somehow untouchable and immune from any negative criticism is in our society today. Men in the public sphere be it online, in the media or in the political arena, simply won't take on the feminists.
Thanks again for speaking up here Tina, you have some idea of my circumstance, and I am about to lodge a complaint to the legal services commission regarding my recent experience. It's not only women that are oriented to feminist ideology, there a are men too. I feel the solicitor and barrister (both male) who purportedly were there to assist me are either indoctrinated, or helpless to contest the feminist underpinnings of family law in my state. The next big challenge for me - who are the people who will look at my circumstance in the legal commission? What ideology will drive their interpretation of the law?
The entire industry known as DEI is built around working around the principle of equality while maintaining the narrative that it is a pursuit of such. The only way they can force outcomes satisfactory to them are through explicitly denying equal treatment. Equity is a weasel word coopted to sound benign and hard to challenge.
There is a barely hidden undercurrent of revanchism driving this movement. This is the inherent dynamic of identity politics altogether. "Because in the past a person like you did something bad to someone like me I have the right to demand you compensate me today." This is the essential kernel of all progressive ideology.
I wonder why it is that these so-called "women's rights" champions are never heard or seen when it comes to actually protecting biological women from the insidious defiling of their rights as real women. Why don't they put their hands up when we hear about "trans" persons stealing medals and trophies from real women athletes and crying “trans phobia” every time they want to interfere with women’s activities and events??
Where are they when "self-identified trans-women" worm their way into private spaces reserved for real women only, and sexual perverts, rapist and DV criminals who suddenly become "women" so they can abuse the system and assault real women in women's prisons and even live in female ADF quarters?? Schools allow "self-identified girls" into female change-rooms and toilets and brainwash young kids with b/s like gender fluidity, with no mandate or authority.
The list goes on and on, but these "feminist lawyers" et al do nothing to support real women; instead they target the average (innocent) man in the street (just because they are men!) and let the real criminals manipulate them and the courts to the detriment of law-abiding citizens. Not only are they failing in their legal obligations and duty of care to all citizens, they are an absolute disgrace to Australian womanhood!! It’s about time some of them stood up and be counted like a real woman instead of a tool of the anti-women, anti-social, anti-Australian, virtue signalling, brain-dead bigots who are manipulating them like puppets!!
I get tired of the endless media coverage the handful of trans women winning medals or competitions in women's sport has received in recent months. It is a problem and needs to be addressed, but the endless cries of "who will save the women from this abominable injustice?" really grinds my gears- especially when men lead the protests.
For decades women and girls have invaded men and boys spaces and they continue to do so and no man has ever taken a public stand on this issue-an issue which has been far more devastating to males than the loss of a medal.
Affirmative action in the police force, fire brigade and in countless professions has seen thousands of far better qualified men overlooked in favour of a woman simply because she is a woman. Standards have been lowered to sneak women through the process of gaining the qualifications to get the job.
Airlines in America are proudly boasting about their new diversity and inclusion policies which will ensure a 50/50 split of male and female pilots. It's the same in our very own Victorian police force and this feminist inspired poisonous policy is placing Victorians at risk,
I have seen multiple short, fat police women walking around with guns on their hip and strutting about like their poop doesn't stink and I want to weep. Is this who I call on when surrounded by a gang of thugs? Will she scale fences and run down an escaping criminal?
I walked past a group of council workers who were digging a large hole in the road the old fashioned way with shovels in 30 degree heat. The obligatory sign holding woman sat on the low brick wall on the opposite side of the road smoking in the shade while this went on. She smiled and wished me a good afternoon and I responded politely but I felt a surge of deep frustration at the reality of this social engineering and the devastating impact it is having now and even more so in the future.
Funny how this push for diversity and gender equity never applies to female dominated professions.
So, forgive me for not feeling too upset by this minor invasion of female sport by trans women.
Trying as hard as I can to see any positive in all of this, I’m now starting to see some.
The gender-neutral expressions “zealot” “ideological unicorn" and "maverick” describe many persons in history, their ultimate demise and the lessons we can take from their actions. Ego can be a dirty word! There are world leaders right now causing mayhem and destruction because of ego. Like others before them, they will eventually fall in humiliation - and the sooner the better!
Similarly, I stand back and look at the bigger picture around the BH case, taking in a scene of destruction. Sure, it’s on a different level, however I’m bemused at the outcomes for most of these participants. Many of them staunch feminists, whether overt or covert, and the bloody mess left behind. The list seems to grow daily…….. politicians, journalists, lawyers, the judiciary - as new revelations expose the protagonists. Careers have been smashed; reputations smeared with plenty of innocent bystanders caught up in the carnage. I’ve learnt a new term “weaponizing”. Its only because of the dogged determination for real justice in a democratic nation that the guilty get called out.
Democracy is being challenged at every level in our society and the BH case is ultimately about that. Fairness and equality, over ego and greed. I await the next chapter in this story with much interest!
I recall showing a woman judge an email which would've cleared me of any possibility of harassing my exgf. The email was from my exgf. My exgf was in the courtroom to my left, where complainants position themselves, I was the respondent and that place is where defendants sit/ stand. She did not ask my exgf if she had in fact sent the email, which read in part, "I love you too". The woman judge, and I am assuming feminist, said, "Mr. Hedges, I don't believe you" and issued a two year order of protection. I did not violate that order, nor appeal her decision.
There is hope that Justice Lee will make findings against Network Ten's lawyer that vindicate both Lehrman and Wilkinson. Shocking as the latter's speech was, she is partly redeemed by the lengths she went to in order to have it legally vetted. She should have known better, but Ten clearly threw her under the proverbial bus.
Wilkinson is a disgraceful media commentator. I would never defend such a vicious, deceitful and bigoted woman or wish for her to "redeemed". She is a loathsome human being along with Clementine , Gillard, Lidia Thorpe and many others.
Why should Wilkinson be vindicated? Wilkinson is a central, very guilty player in this saga! She knew exactly what she was doing! She has been at the heart of the campaign to destroy Lehmann and, in the even more sinister plot, to “ bring down the government (LNP)” as Higgins clearly stated in a recorded conversation.
All of the players in this evil plot should all be gaoled for perverting the course of justice: Higgins herself for her blatant, proven lies and game-playing with innocent people’s lives and reputations; Albanese/Gallagher/Dreyfus for their threats and plotting against Reynolds and their secret taxpayer-funded $2.4+million payout to Higgins; Wilkinson for her central role in ensuring that the case Lehmann brought was delayed; Wilkinson's scarf-headed spouse, Peter Fitzsimmons with his book deal; and not least Higgins’ legal ‘aiders and abetters’, the Public Prosecutor, Shane Drumgold, Heidi Yates, Victims of Crime Commissioner, and Leon Zwier her lawyer, who were all complicit in ensuring that Lehmann would never be able to seek justice via the criminal court system.
Thanks to Bettina and journalists like Janet Albrechtsen, the full horror of the perversion of our justice system is on display. No citizen can trust this Labor government, left wing journalists like Wilkinson nor the very, very badly behaved lawyers. They should all be in gaol today and Lehmann awarded the 2.4 mill compensation from Brittany's bank account!
As a working woman, wife and mother, I thought the Family Court system was bad enough when dealing with it in 2013-2017. But the Lehmann case and the recent changes in the Family Law Act just show how far feminist controlled politics will go to ensure that men are erased unless they grovel to every whim of these feminazi. And, just how far the socialist Labor government is prepared to lie to the Australian people to gain power.
Yes - vindication was too generous, but I think to be objective you have to accept that TEN's conduct was much worse than Wilkinson's, but I didn't mean to convey she was blameless as a main player.
Wilkinson has been a journalist for 40 years. It’s nonsense that she didn’t know that speech risked delaying the trial. It didn’t matter to her because she’s also a zealot.
I hate to disagree with you Bettina, but - what journalist?
She is a light entertainment TV presenter. This whole sage largely derives from LW trying to play Woodward & Berstein while actually being a celebrity hack. A real one would have had much better sense than jeopardising an in-progress trial, even if they were pursuing a bloody minded ideological crusade.

Now do psychology.
This is yet another brilliant & utterly objective essay on one of the pressing issues of the time shortly to become more than just that, -as more men suicide, & as women "get-on-top"..? And who cares? Don't we need de-population?
The bodies some people are willing to crawl over to get to the top.
Sadly, it is all about punishing men. Changing laws in order to obtain a conviction.
But once again this take over is all a result of men enabling them ( the feminist idealogues) to gain the powerful positions they have and it seems no man has the courage to call out their corruption and gender bias.

It was feminist barrister Jocelyn Scutt who told me in conversation several years ago that "women shouldn't be subject to mens' laws".
She was a piece of work that one.

Not surprising at all.
Every Lawyer I have met has always looked after their own interests first, and then the client's second.
I recall showing a woman judge an email which would've cleared me of any possibility of harassing my exgf. The email was from my exgf. My exgf was in the courtroom to my left, where complainants position themselves, I was the respondent and that place is where defendants sit/ stand.

How do you control your justifiable rage? I think I would explode or perhaps impode.

OK :) I admit to being a tad sensitive when it comes to these matters.
You seek justice and feel rightfully angry when it seems it may not be taking place.
