An aside to the dinner lady story...it seems that one of the governors who would have had a say in the sacking was the parent of one of the kids that had ties up the child and whipped her with the skipping rope....and not only has the dinner lady been sacked but the injured child has had to be taken out by the parent...the children that did the whipping though?
No action, they are still happily attending school.

No wonder we are going to hell in an handbasket.
Popcorn required me thinks- I'm not getting involved in this one, off to have a big wardrobe clearout!
If you have a spare big wardrobe, might I have it?
I had only previously read a condensed version of this story and was outraged by it, I am even more so now. What a stupid thing to be done by the school governors, is there no common sense left in this world 
Bliddy nora, that's awful.
Still, I'm sure it has been noted and filed in some report, which will be published after these boys have been found guilty of some heinous crime in the future.

wish I did have a spare big wardrobe! I've got clothes hanging from every available hanging space, ( no nip jokes I thankyou!)- backs of doors, curtain rails you name it they're hanging there- I'm going to be ruthless, will I ever get into those size 10s again- no chance!Reference:

Exactly. What would have happened to the girl if the dinner lady had not come by? It's dreadful, it really is.
Me suspects that there may be 'another side' to these stories...that can't be told because of 'confidentiality' ...but like, I said, I'm not getting involved
I'm gobsmacked to be honest, makes you wonder what the hell we're heading for. Life sometimes just makes you shake your head in total disbelief!
According to Tony Parsons, in the Mirror:
"What Carol actually deserves is a medal. And her job back. The incident is sickening. For it turns out that one of the loathsome little creeps who tied up and lashed Chloe is the son of one of the school governors. Well, I never!"
If that is true, it is certainly another side to the story!

In a situation like this, since one of the governors' child was involved, he should never have been allowed to be part of the sitting panel - conflict of interest. Sounds a bit like in Harry Potter whenever Draco Malfoy was brought up on his behaviour, he always said "Wait until I tell my father about this", as his father was a school governor.The school was caught out lying, plain and simple and instead of taking responsibility, they shifted the blame onto someone else.
Och the poor wee future thugs that will end up being the dregs of society classmates were just having a laugh surely? Let's just put it down to boredom and don't blame the parents at all eh? Anyways...she's only a dinner lady!! 
*shakes head in disbelief, too*
Don't we know taking care of our children's welfare is our future!

What kind of future is it going to be though? This isn't an isolated event - a young girl was gang raped in Bolton by 5 boys aged between 13 and 17. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/eng...nchester/8274433.stmEvery day, something like this is happening and they sack a dinner lady for intervening?
