RT @EvaPoen: This is very brave of Lisa (@lnmackenzie1 ). Please read her story. I am so angry on her behalf - we all ought to be. It is unacceptable that an employee’s perfectly legitimate research work outside of her job should be scrutinised in ...

RT @JonnyWorst: @Womans_Place_UK @lnmackenzie1 I'm outraged that you were put through all of this, Lisa. You've always been such a professional, thoughtful voice and those who did this to you should hang their heads in shame.

RT @kiritunks: Women should not be forced out of their jobs because of a belief that sex matters esp when the law says it matters too. You’d think RCN (a union with 90% female membership) would understand that. I am proud to know Lisa and I would ...

RT @cannemckenzie: @Womans_Place_UK This is awful. I always get the impression Lisa is very thorough and careful so I’ve no doubt she behaved appropriately yet was treated appallingly, and it’s made so much worse that it was by a union. Yet she’s ...

RT @janeayres: @Womans_Place_UK Sounds like a case of constructive dismissal, though I'd quite understand not wanting to pursue that. I wonder if at some point an employee can just refuse to attend invasive and irrelevant (viz a viz work) meetings?
