Fathers4Justice are right to use civil disobedience say two thirds, about a third of them are women

From Divorce Online (UK's leading divorce specialists) and click on "Majority think Fathers4justice campaign are right to use civil disobedience"

An internet poll of web users has found that a large majority believe that the absent fathers group Fathers4Justice are right to use civil disobedience to highlight their campaign for fairer access to their children.

The group, which have hijacked major landmarks all over the UK, dressed as super heroes have caused controversy with their stunts, which some observers see as a new form of militancy amongst absent fathers.

The survey which was carried out by online divorce and separation website www.divorce-online.co.uk was carried out between the 1st January and 25th February and obtained the votes of 4,000 web users.

The survey found that 65% of correspondents approved of the actions taken by fathers4Justice as opposed to 32% who did not. The balance had no view on the subject.

Surprisingly 35% of those who indicated that they approved of the civil disobedience were women.

Fathers 4 Justice give family lawyers, Parker Bird of Huddersfiled, the Golden Petrol Can award for pouring petrol on the flames in childcare cases. Did the lawyers cry or expose a nipple?

A LAW firm was the focus of a protest by campaign group Fathers 4 Justice for the second time. Fifteen fathers wearing white contamination outfits stormed the offices of Parker Bird solicitors in Queen Street, Huddersfield with sirens blaring, whistles blowing and flags waving....

Fathers 4 Justice - Fathers prepare for Civil Disruption as Negotiations End

A meeting on Monday between civil rights group Fathers 4 Justice and Lord Filkin the Minister for the Family Courts ended in deadlock. The group have now decided to withdraw from any further negotiations and are planning to roll out their campaign of civil disruption across the country.

Said F4J Founder Matt O'Connor who was at the meeting 'The government had nothing to promise families or our members. There was also nothing to suggest that they understand the gravity of the situation or the crisis in family law. They say that they are listening to our concerns but they have been listening for 30 years and done nothing about it. If they don't act immediately, then we will.'

'We have exhausted every avenue in our search for a solution but to no avail which leaves civil disruption and disobedience as our only option. 20,000 children will lose partial or total contact with their fathers in the next 6 months. For the government to sit there while Rome literally burns is unforgivable, especially so a government run by two self proclaimed committed fathers. Gordon Brown recently said 'nothing matters more than being a father' so why isn't this right at the top of the political agenda?'

F4J are holding a further round of national meetings next week in London, Manchester, Gloucester and Newcastle in preparation for the campaign and next months Labour Party Spring Conference in Manchester where 'superhero dads' are expected to be in action although F4J will not confirm exactly what action is likely to be taken.

Get nude in public and get an A challenges professor. One male student does, so the professor resigns. Was the student that ugly?

A North Carolina professor offered a A grade for any student who would get naked in the classroom, as an illustration of the unacceptability of public nudity. One male student did undress and so the professor has resigned. Sounds logical to me. Only a anti-PC middle aged cynic would ask did he jump or was he pushed? So I'm asking...

Please, mister, can I have my balls back? (Sorry, couldn't resist that)

I said in an earlier post that serious questions should asked about transsexuality, including is it really good for the person concerned? (Just for the record if your a transsexual and you want to go ahead, with your own money by the way, then it's your body but I think you're very likely making a mistake) Anyway one person has said you operated too quick and I was mentally unbalanced when I agreed to it, but the British General Medical Council has not upheld the complaint...

Men can be women except when it might compete with women (and they can still be rapists)

Women who are trapped inside a man's body (or men who want their whatits cut off, if you prefer) aren't being allowed to compete with women in sport because they might beat the little darlings....
