Suppose your place of work is at home. Is the offence now downgraded to "gross misconduct" ?
Would you have to march yourself off your own premises ?
Could you claim sexual harassment from Mr. Hand, and sue yourself for damages ?
"Yeah...er...every time I sat down to do some work, the accused just kept fiddling with me, your Honour. He wouldn't leave me alone for 5 mins. The bum-pinching was the worst...."

Wasn't there an investment banker who got caught doing just that in the showers after the gym?

I can understand prosecuting police. The public rely on them to catch speeding motorists and shoot Brazilians on the underground.
What do we rely on Prescott for?

Unless there is more to come from the women he got it off with he hasnt committed any abuse of office.
The only fecker who should have been arrested and charged was the blind git (and the whore he was getting it on with) who helped his bit on the side with some helpful interference.

It's different if you are in public office & is seen as a breach of the public's trust and that is open to prosecution
HTH

There have been a couple of cases reported against Police officers having sex whilst on duty being an abuse of office. The abuse of office law covers civil servants and MPs. He admitted having sex whilst "on duty" so I would say bang to rights!
Do try to keep up.

Originally posted by Gold DalekThere is no law saying that people cannot have sex at work but it calls into question issues of appropriate behaviour.
In Mr Prescott's case, he is being accused of committing the offence of misconduct in a public office by having sex with his secretary in his Whitehall office.

She cant be that smart. If she had any sense at all she would say he made it a condition of her continuing employment and sue the arse out of the Govt.
Nobody is going to believe she did it willingly.
Unless she has told someone else that she volunteered.

Originally posted by FungusI think the fact that numerous women including the wife of Jack Ashley MP have accused him of sexual harassment is enough to bar the man from public office. An oaf like that is not fit to serve in the Cabinet and his continued presence makes Blair look sleazy and corrupt.

Originally posted by Gold DalekBlair must be praying for the World Cup to start to distract the proles
So naturally he wont go , he is going to have to be pushed.
And if England perform poorly in the World Cup dont forget that the England manager will still walk off with 5 million in his pocket.
And as for Blair he will earn millions on the US Circuit tour post his departure as I have always maintained.
Not one to speculate on soccer matters but I think it will be a case of Germany scraping their way to a final to be beaten by Brazil, Iran could be worth a bet for the semis as they have been playing really well.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 8 May 2006, 16:06.

If someone who holds public office abuses their position it is seen as a breach of the public's trust. As a civil servant Ms Temple could also be prosecuted for the same thing.
Earlier this year a police officer who had sex with a woman he'd been called to help was given 200 hours of community service and lost his job after admitting misconduct in a public office.
And last year two policemen were sent to prison for 15 months and forced to quit their jobs after being found guilty of the same charge. They admitted having sex with a woman while on duty.
The offence applies to all public servants including councillors and government ministers.

Can someone point out which law he is supposed to have broken and whether what ever has broken is a criminal matter?
The only problem I have with new labour being under new management is the fecker waiting in the wings like a fat chick waiting for sasguru to drop a packet of smarties cause his neaderthal like fingers havent developed to a stage where he has fine motor control over his limbs
Im also concerned about who the new chancellor will be if the current one is promoted! Imagine the fecker they will need to follow in gordo's foot steps!
