HARCELEMENT SEXUEL: NE PAS SE MEPRENDRE!

 

AGRESSION SEXUELLE: LES PLAINTES SE MULTIPLIENT!

 

HARASSMENT ?

The Weinstein harassment accusations have provoked discussions and reports of other aggressions which had until then remained secret.   These now generally reveal that at a critical point in time, girls and women were too shocked to file an official complaint.

In some countries the law does protect Women from unsolicited attacks of a sexual nature ; however the main problem  is the absense of proof particularly in work places : often there are no witnesses and when there are some, they are too afraid to testify !
     
Witnesses  fear personal consequences, like being sacked from their job or more supplely, being totally ignored afterwards ! 
 
However, taking into account these recent happenings,  will it still be possible to distinguish between a man who is gently "wooing" a girl or a woman and a man who expects a woman to submit totally to all his impulsive sexual demands !  

Is this the end of the French style of "galantry" ?                                                                                                                                                                .                                                
                                                                                  

      

BRITISH JIHADISTS GUILTY OF TREASON, but...

Sir Michael Fallon, the Defence Secretary, talks tough about British Subjects who have volunteered to become Jihadist fighters (or "cannon-fodder") !   He intends to withdraw their British Passports to prevent them from returning to Britain to live !

The simple fact is that they have committed TREASON by joining the Islamic State troops.  This crime used to be punished with death, but that has now been replaced with the costly modern alternative of imprisonment for life ! 

The Islamic State has organised attrocities not only in Britain but in all EU countries and World-wide !  

Therefore the EU must also act !   It has strangled its member countries with countless acts and edicts but neglects totally all problems connected with the security of its citizens !   BREXIT is one of the consequences, but other "EXITS" can be expected if nothing changes !

SEXUAL ABUSE NOT A CRIME WHEN.....

When not enough convincing evidence of an aggression, sexual or otherwise, is readily available, the Police are reluctant to pursue enquiries.    This is particularly true in the case of sexual aggressions when no third party is present !

The current Weinstein scandal in the Film Industry, has provoked countless discussions and articles in the Press all over the World.  Revelations also state that due to their contacts some well known Public Personalities, Politicians and "Bosses" in industry, have  escaped prosecution or even answering awkward questions.

Sometimes, if not before their death, the truth is sudddenly revealed.   What is never made public are the identities of who blocked the prosecution of a simple or habitual sexual offender !   Usually the reason given by the Police is that there was not enough evidence for a prosecution !

When young girls or women are sexually abused they are ashamed and in shock : it is then they need the help of a friend, but they are alone and have no witnesses !

In view of the foregoing, even if a centralised Computer File is created, as this Blog has already suggested (1), would all the Police stations register ALL complaints on standard forms ?   But, would the Police then also act if  enough evidence is found to justify a prosecution ? 

The simple announcement that such a register has been created would definitely comfort women and help to ensure their basic right not to be molested against their will !

SEXUAL ABUSE : ARE VIPs EVER GUILTY ?

The numerous accusations of sexual abuse in the current Weinstein Saga, have now provoked articles in the International Press about VIPs who in the past had been suspected of sexual abuse, but who were never prosecuted, because the evidence against them was considered "unsound" ! 

There have been cases like this all over the World.  It is only after their death, when it is too late for justice, that the real truth is revealed, of how and why the VIP was protected by an anonimous person !

This Blog has already proposed (1) that a register should be made available where "secret" abuse complaints could be filed at a local Police station.   In the case of VIPs, would such complaints not sytematically "get lost" or disappear ?  Would that then not always be due to a "hacker" ?

These problems remain and must be solved !

STOP SEXUAL AGGRESSIONS BY THE "BOSS" ?

Daily press reports of alleged sexual abuse, provoked by the ongoing Weinstein saga, also highlight the lack of efficient laws to protect any of the victims.

What can the Victims do when the sexual aggresser  is  their boss or in a dominant position and often well known ?

Young girls in particular fear losing their jobs.  Victims  often do not have any real creditable evidence and no witness and are too timid to reveal the murky details of what happened !

Habitual aggressors know this : they operate against the consent of their victims and have no fear of prosecution.

Without "clear evidence" the Police at present will not and cannot act.  There is however a way to identify, catch and ultimately punish these "long term Aggressors" !
 
A centralised Police Computor File should be officially established in every country.   Aggressed victims could then secretly complete standardised reports in their local police station.   Such a file would quickly reveal the identification of long term habitual attackers, even those operating on an "international" basis.
 
Publication of the existence of such a file would also serve as a deterrent and would definitely provide more security and justice for victims !

PARIS 2030 : ELECTRIC VEHICLES ONLY...?

Anne Hildago the current Socialist Mayoress of Paris   has a "clean air in 2030" plan (or dream)  for the French Capital : replacing petrol and diesel cars with electric cars. 

She is now confronted not only by her political opponents but also by the citizens of Paris, not to speak of the growing anxieties in surrounding suburbs !  

No details of her plans for 2030, nor the costs, have been made public.   Contractors will be required but who will bear the costs, only Parisien Rate-payers ?   What is the time Schedule leading up to 2030 for all aspects of her proposals ?

Which "electric vehicles" are concerned, only cars or also motor-bikes, lorries, coaches and buses ?  What about Police Cars, Ambulances, Tourist vehicles, VIP and CD cars ?   Will there still be taxis in Paris ?

If petrol stations are to be phased out, where will vehicles be able to plug-in for electricity ?  How long will it take to recharge a Car Battery and what autonomy will Cars have ?  More than 100 or 150 Kilometers ?

The additional electricity requirements for Paris alone would probably necessitate building a special Power Station !   If drivers must travel long distances, in France or abroad, will "plug-ins" be readily available ?  

There is, however, a simple alternative to avoid all these problems.  Ban all Cars, Motor-bikes and Buses in Paris and provide free travel on the Underground !  This would mean building Carparks on the fringe of the Capital, but parking charges could pay for the free Underground !

Paris Citizens would also be relieved, delighted even !   At present, much to the discomfort of pedestrians, Motor-bikes litter pavements everywhere, but parking tickets are never issued !  That would be too costly to ensure, but also it would be a vote-loser at the very next Election !

EU AWAITS NEXT GERMAN CHANCELLOR

The recent General Election in Germany has again left the country in a stalemate situation : no one party alone can govern and appoint the Chancellor, without the help of a Coalition !

When Angela Merkel again became the Chancellor four years ago it was also due to the Coalitition of her Christian Democratic Union (CDU) with the Social Democratic Party (SDP).   Alas this time the SDP Members want a different Coalition.

Merkel is now trying to form a Coalition and hopes to become Chancellor before Christmas !   Any Party in a new Coalition with CDU will certainly impose conditions and which Merkel would be expected to respect : this is quite normal.  

BUT, politicians are now hesitant about Merkel.   Out of pity, she happily invited Immigrants into Germany (and the EU) to solve the shortage of manpower in German factories !  This finally resulted in an "invasion of immigrants" in the whole EU from not only the Middle East Warzone but from many other distressed warzone areas worldwide.

EU countries are now clamouring for an update of basic principles in EU Treaties, which were conceived more than 50 years ago !
  

Must EU countries now wait until Christmas or until Germany has a new Chancellor, before any such changes can be discussed or undertaken ?

RUSSIA : NAVALNY AGAIN ARRESTED !

Western Newspapers carry reports that 41 year old Alex Navalny, has again been arrested, which is the third time this year.  

He is an anti-corruption Campaigner and it is a well known fact that he wants to be a Candidate in the Presidential Election to be held in March 2018 in Russia.

However, in Totalitarian countries like Russia, unvetted or very popular opposition candidates like Navalny, who is also anti-Putin, are definitely NOT welcome !  The proof is that he has been imprisoned because he did not (i.e. could not) get the official Permission required to hold his Meetings ! 

Putin has been at the helm as acting President since 1999 and obviously does not want opposition.   BUT there are cells in favour of Navalny in at least 60, if not more, Russian cities.  This is probably what terrifies Putin !   

If each cell selects a "clean candidate", ready to stand if selected Nationally, could all Candidates subsequently presented, be systematically rejected ?    Would the Totalitarian Hierarchy really be prepared to reject all 60 ?

MACRON REVOLUTION STUNS FRANCE !

Every sector in the French Economy seems to be critical of the many measures which Macron and his Government are proposing to introduce !   But, the proposals correspond with what he promised as a presidential Candidate .

Trade Unions are repeatedly organising Marches, Middle Class Taxpayers are writhing about planned increases inTaxes which do not affect the Super-Rich with yachts or airplanes or investments in shares !

Is Macron at fault because he wants to do too much too quickly ?   He is changing Employment Rules which could encourage Companies to expand their businesses and also to become more competitive on international markets !

After this, should he not have paused, to assess the favourable cash flow which this should produce ?  Less unemployed, less State Aid, more Production and Sales, is exactly what France needs !

Changing everything all at the same time, even though it does need changing, has even turned some of his own Electors against him ; they voted for him and his Plans and for his new Party, but they are now disappointed, even angry !

His Popularity in all Polls is plunging.  Economists everywhere must be wondering if even HE knows what his "Cash Flow" will look like, for the period ending December 2018, and also in later years !

FRANCE : AMATEUR CYCLIST "DOPES HIS BIKE" !

A French amateur cyclist aged 43 came out of  retirement after his wife said she wanted to see him compete ; he then won a couple of amateur races.

Aware that an electric device (with a limited time capacity) could be fitted to bikes to help competitors, he bought one and used it.   This device is available in specialist shops and purchases are frequent.

This amateur has now become the first cyclist to be charged criminally for this type of "swindling".  His club and the French Federation of Cyclists (FFC) are also considering action ! 

It is not surprising that suddenly the "World of Cycling" is reacting in this way.  After the "doped cyclists" we now have "doped bikes" !
 
But the key question now is : "Are the bikes of Professional Competitors systematically and properly checked" ?  In particular, are "reserve bikes" supplied during races also checked ?

For the last 60 years it has been a well known fact that, in France at least, Professional Cyclists used dope to improve their performances.

One should never forget that in 1967 Tom Simpson collapsed and died in the Tour de France.   In 2012 all of Lance Armstrong's Victories were all cancelled and removed from the records !

Is the "World of Cycling" today really sure that there is no more cheating through the use of Drugs ? 

Is "Throwing the Book" at an amateur aged 43, who could even end up in prison, really the right place to start cleaning-up the World of Cycling again ?

ISF: EXCLURE LA RESIDENCE PRINCIPALE

Après la réforme de l'ISF, seul l'immobilier sera assujetti à l'impôt sur la fortune.   Si la réforme de l'ISF fait plutôt consensus, le maintien de la résidence principale dans l'assiette de l'ISF exaspère nombre de propriétaires pour qui se loger est une nécessité.

Certes pour calculer l'assiette de l'ISF, la résidence principale bénéficie d'un abattement de 30%. Mais quand les prix de l'immobilier à Paris ont été multipliés par 6 ou 7 en quelques années, les propriétaires de leur résidence principale se retrouvent "riches" malgré eux.

Exclure la résidence principale de l'assiette de l'ISF aurait l'avantage d'apaiser les nombreux retraités non éligibles à l'exonération de la taxe d'habitation et qui subissent l'augmentation de la CSG sans aucune contrepartie.
