Leighton Smith Podcast #254 - September 4th 2024 - Professor James Allan
Description
New Zealand men and women are being encouraged to pay attention to the court decision in the case of “Tickle v Giggle”.
Why be interested in a comedic sounding Australian judge's decision?
Well, the ruling has been labelled “dystopian" and "distorting key concepts of sex and discrimination, while dodging Australia’s human rights obligations vis a vis women. If unchallenged this decision would set a dangerous precedent”.
New Zealand is in danger of falling into the same human rights trap.
The incomparable Professor James Allan analyses the Tickle case as only he can.
And as always, we finish in The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
