It is hard to see a day go by (let alone a week) without there being a new 'low' to be dismayed at. The newspapers are full of stories that prove beyond doubt how fucked up society is. Today's example is a sad one, involving an old chap who has done nothing wrong, but has fallen foul of pathetic bureaucracy and cuntism of the highest order.
Mr George Lomas is 77 years old, and this year he lost his wife. East Cheshire Council had for five years been paying for a carer until Rose, who had Parkinson's Disease, died. Jayne Wakefield was working for 30 hours per week as a carer, employed by the council, and was - according to Mr Lomas - treated like a daughter. When Rose died on 4th March, George was hardly in a great state. Wakefield's hours were cut to 16 per week, and she demanded redundancy money from George Lomas on 14th March, the day after the funeral. George offered to pay for the reduced hours. On 20th March, Wakefield resigned.
Jayne Wakefield has won £3569 after pursuing a claim for constructive dismissal! Yes, you read this correctly; she was constructively dismissed.
The council denies it has anything to do with the matter. As Mr Lomas paid the carer from 4th March to 20th March [for 16 days from the day his wife died] then he apparently became Jayne Wakefield's employer. Without anything being put in writing, the claimant decided she had to resign, and act in what most decent people will consider to be a disgusting manner. The council simply stopped paying on 4th March because it could. Jayne Wakefield is arguably not the best 'carer' in the world, considering she told people at the funeral she would help George, before telling him she was suing him the next day.
The law is an ass/arse/cunt when is aids and abets people with no sense of morality or decency. The council is of course useless and equally despicable, but will argue that it has rules in place to safeguard taxpayers' money - while giving 1 in 10 houses to migrants [based on national average stats]. Has Jayne Wakefield taken advantage of a grieving man within days of his 76-year-old wife dying? Has she played the system in a callous manner without any conscience? Has the tribunal fucked up? Do you think it is outrageous that this woman has won her claim and that Mr Lomas has to find the money? Is the world now far too full of greed and disgusting behaviour? Is cuntism prevalent? Are you outraged? Is it asking too much for a 77-year-old to give proper written notice to a supposed carer (who'd been 'caring' for 5 years) in advance of his wife dying so that he did not fall foul of shitty fucking rules? If your answers to these questions are: yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes and yes, then you are normal and human.
If George had told MsWakefield to 'fuck off' on the day his wife died, then she would never have been classed as her employer. However, aside from his grief and other priorities, he is clearly a man with a good heart who offered to pay her; he was being nice and doing what he thought was the right thing. Some might say that Ms Wakefield was being a cunt.
