Accountant who quoted Dad's Army to brand female director a 'stupid girl' is found guilty of sexist misconduct, after calling her 'moaning mini' and telling her 'not to get her knickers in a twist'
The DM seems to be emphasising the "sexist" bit but that's not the only reason. If that had been ALL he said he would have probably got a reprimand. However there's a clear pattern of him behaving like a twunt to different people over several years. No professional institute would put up with one of their members behaving like that.Accountant who quoted Dad's Army to brand female director a 'stupid girl' is found guilty of sexist misconduct, after calling her 'moaning mini' and telling her 'not to get her knickers in a twist'

It’s normal on here to create hyperlinks in this manner, there are instructions under ‘Formatting Help’ when you post or reply.Sounds like an obnoxious bd to be fair, its not like the article suggests in the headline that he made a light hearted joke using the altered line from dads army once, sounds more like he was a right prick a lot of the time and people had enough of it to take it further.
And the DM comments are full of people that cant reconcile that others dont have to put up with misogynistic bullies in the workplace, its not "woke", its just that people dont have to suffer bullst like that every day as nobody listens, imagine the misery over the years people have had to put up with in the workplace from people like he seems to be ? They get emboldened and it becomes a thing, a sport for them and its sort of accepted.
My mum told me about what she had to put up with working at Manchester Town Hall in the sixties, being touched and remarks of a sexual nature were a daily occurrence, then there was the general sexism and being treated like st.
