Many have questioned, “How will bringing the Australian Family Court into the Federal Closed Circuit Court make a difference?”

It is becoming clearer the difference is wiping the Family Court rules and replacing them with the Closed Circuit Court rules.

To that end Australian Family Court Judges are to be retrained. It will include how to recognise victims of domestic and family violence whose stories are often not heard. i.e. Partners who have been falsely accused. And that it is usually the father.

This occurs when a woman, who may be feeling vindictive, tries to turn children against the other parent and makes unsubstantiated claims of violence and even child sexual abuse.

Such claims can be made out of malice and/or to bolster the party’s prospects of securing a favourable outcome – from their own perspective – in family law cases such as custody and property proceedings.

The law and penalty was always there under section 314 of the Crimes act 1900 (NSW). Punishable for up to 7 years jail. It just wasn’t in play in the Australian Family Court rules.

Where statements were made under oath that can be prosecuted for perjury under section 327 of the same act which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.

New Zealand

New Zealand has similar laws under the crimes act 1961 section 115. Conspiring to bring false accusation upon conviction is liable for imprisonment for a term not exceeding 14 years.

I am not entirely sure, but I think in NZ such accusations would need to be taken out privately in the district or High Court.

The direction the Australian Government has indicated is quite a significant one. It seems the Closed Circuit Court are arming and training Judges to award significant imprisonment penalties to those people who choose to lie in court.

It has been a long time coming to recognise what has been happening.

Looking forward to seeing other peoples view on why the Australian Family Court Judges are being retrained in criminal law.

Sky News host Chris Kenny says highly disturbing footage has revealed ABC journalists and producers “coached” women what to say when they made allegations against actor Craig McLachlan.

7 News Australia has a full documentary on what happened and why he was not guilty. I can’t find or access it.

I saw this extract in a recent comment.

There’s no doubt there’s been some great success in the past. Some men responsible for this are still on this forum. Reaching anywhere near that level again seems out of reach at this present time. Most of us are just hanging in there consumed by family court processes, lawyer and child support bills.

Police unhappy with ruling that stops formal written warnings from being supplied to employers.

Let’s not make this confusing. There are a number of players here.

1. The Police have for a long time believe they are Judge and Jury by providing criminal history that has not been tested.

2. Justice Davison knows he is the decider on who has criminal history.

3. The teacher may or may not have been grooming the 15 year old girl.

4. The 15 year old girl believes she was not groomed and will not participate in a trial.

5. Clinical psychologist Kathryn McPhillips thinks it’s a useful workaround when victims who say they are not victims to stop people without convictions getting employment.

6. Professor Andrew Geddis said it could cost the Government $$$ is a possibility under the NZ Bill of rights act for the harm people have suffered.

7. Andrew Geddis thinks the Government should legislate to stop money being paid out to men who have suffered this side stepping on the NZ Bill of rights act.

I think any Court Of Appeal Judge will agree with Justice Davison.

I further think the Government may create a law to remove men’s rights under the NZ Bill of rights retrospectively. This would be a big step. But a step this Government may be willing to take since the latest sexual violence act that removes the right to a fair trial almost all lawyers are against here. Innocence Protection Project

What do you think?

I very much dislike all social media like Facebook and others. However, it is a way to get notice.

Why is MENZ not on Facebook?

I thought some of you would find this of interest. It is a project by an Auckland lawyer to combat the new Sexual Violence Bill – or at least to try to mitigate what are likely to be its effects.

Westpac say men don’t work hard or long enough.

Westpac fails to take into account men usually have physical jobs and a buggered when they finally get home. That and we build fences, service cars, mow lawns, trim trees, paint and a lot of other stuff.

Men who earn the bulk part of the income. Pay most of the tax that supports the nation.

There are many things we can’t do, but moving accounts and business away from companies we can. I am talking to my broker to move my mortgage to a bank that likes men. I suggest you do the same.

Westpac, see ya latter mate.

Whenever he saw that look on my face, he would say, “Just call me a pome-git.”

We had become the sort of friends you seldom meet in life, that understood each other better than most people could ever hope to and some of the discussions are still unforgettable.

The sanctions in the Family Court Act for a breach of Section11B involving identification of children are a maximum of three months imprisonment, or a $2000 fine for an individual or $10,000 for an organisation.

I haven’t had time to digest this yet but it looks like something we should be paying attention to.

Letter from IRD.

IRD are generally unaware of the cause of death. Presumably Sue Gilles thinks what she calls the customers can apply for an administrative review if they have special circumstances. Seemingly she and IRD thinks thats an acceptable disclaimer for their policies. Men, usually don’t ask for help, they just cope. It is how they are wired. And calling the deceased customers??? WTF is that? Zero compassion.

As we all know, it is almost always the father who is the non-custodial parent. That and IRD thinks it helpful to hide the suicides inside the natural deaths, health problems identified by Nurit Zubery Thesis (click here) caused by severe stress.

Well, it looks like 2020 (year of the lockdown) was a bumper year. The best yet. Hon David Parker minister of revenue (including IRD) must be very delighted with that result. A real team effort.

I refuse to call them customers. I will only call them victims of IRD policy.

The least IRD could do is reach out to the fathers and ask if they are coping with it all. Loss of home, loss of their things in the home, loss of income, no faith. Monitor them. How they find living without seeing their kids because seeing them in the eyes of the mother would reduce payments. And when you call them, use a man because they have very good reason to distrust women.

My condolences to the children for their great lifetime of loss. No dad to help you when you need it. Not knowing the bond, love and faithfulness of a father, a grandfather.

One day, and I hope it is soon. A Government, maybe a Prime Minister will step up and say “I will no longer support policy that puts human beings in a place of hopelessness and despair”. You see NZ has these policies for unemployed, the sick, elderly, children, Maori, women, refugees, even plants, pets and live stock. But not separated fathers.

While I am not restricting general comments about the stats, if you are a dad, a grown child, extended family, friends, workmates of the deceased. If you leave a comment, please tell me if you are struggling with payments, how you were treated by IRD, the courts and the mother of your child.

During the Clark Administration there was plenty of hostility towards the feminist environment in New Zealand.

As we come into the second term of the Ardern Administration I’m interested to see if there is a revival in the trend.

I’ve found NZ women don’t have a particularly good reputation overseas so the meme caught my eye as Australia is usually a few steps behind in feminist trends.

What are our opinions these days?

Many years ago I went out on a limb with This Post, to make a point. This was about Mallard as an MP in the Clark Administration … you can’t comment on that though.

He was behaving like a girl then and it suited Clark not to sack him because she put herself above the principle.

Some people would call that playing God because you put yourself above the established, known, learned, previously successful principles of the past.

Today Mallard, who is now our Speaker has repeated the same silly behavior as if it was routinely acceptable.

Our current prime minister is in the same position around the same time in the political swings and around abouts of our centrist politics.

The difference is that, Mallard is now our Speaker rather than an MP.

There is only one acceptable way out of the current situation and Mallard must go.

We cannot allow the these absentee processes to take hold or we will be in a much worse position than having this isolated to the family court and any other specialist civil courts that are and might develop.

The police practice of issuing “formal warnings” to people who haven’t been convicted of any crime then and sharing that information with other parties has been found to be illegal.

So the process is:

1. Man gets a formal warning for an allegation of a sex nature.
2. Man applies for a job and has to sign a vetting form.
3. The allegation is disclosed.
4. No job. And the employer has the mans allegation in their office.

Justice Davison ordered the Police to delete the warning.

In law, an allegation is a claim of an unproven fact by a party in a pleading, charge, or defence. Until they can be proved, allegations remain merely assertions.

My question is, when are the Police going to compensate that man?

I thought I’d put this YouTube clip in here for fathers who like music.

If you’ve got a good link to something similar add a comment.

This is from another page but in reading it I felt it hinted at the long term involvement of women in politics since they achieved voting rights.

Their involvement in the protest movement, the anti-war movement, left wing causes, and now in this age climate change and particularly in the international arena has been a more singular global voice.

There’s also an element of (more…)

I hate to say this but when we have modern left-wing governments in power there are always more detrimental consequences for men.

These changes often come dressed in disguise though, and we don’t see the ulterior motives intended by any proposed changes.

We don’t see much being written on menz these days either. It’s as if men have resigned themselves to civilized failure.

So, seeing the hate laws that are being proposed by the current government of New Zealand … how do you think they might affect us men?

If a man’s life was starting to look like it wasn’t his own, you can rest assured neither will his death be once new inheritance laws are impacted.

Interview on RNZ:

Nurit Zubery is a NZ feminist who is clearly not one of the man-hating variety.

She wrote a thesis on the impacts of men during and after divorce. She says there was very little world research on the impact of men divorcing. This is part of what she reported in her thesis.

Nurit Zubery’s masters supervisor is Auckland University Professor of Law Mark Henaghan.

She reports that Canadian Research shows;

• Men commit suicide 4.8x more than woman following divorce.
• Men are admitted to a psychiatric hospital 9x more after divorce.
• Men have accidents double from 6 months before devoice to 6 months after divorce.
• Men develop health problems at a much higher level like heart attacks and diabetes after divorce.

Cambridge research shows.

• Almost 50% of couples divorce in the Weston world.
• Woman initiate about 70% of divorce.
• Woman do not have anywhere near the same severe reactions to divorce.

Nurit Zubery’s thesis is online here: How Men Experience Family Dispute Resolution Mediation.

Dear Jacinda Ardern. Here is a question for you. If a Government sits back and watches social media cause the suicide (now coined “mental health”) of its citizens and does nothing, are they to blame for the death of thousands of our youth?

Jac, if someone causes the death of someone with a weapon, car, their bare hands, neglect of safety it is not OK. If someone causes the death of another with published words it’s OK. For me I just see a dead person the pleasure and glee of someone else or organisation.

Leadership was definitely an issue being discussed in the public discourse this weekend without news of the death of Prince Philip.

A long distinguished career as the Queen’s husband has been central to his 99 years, more so than his miltary career, in the service of the Commonwealth of Nations to which New Zealand has long been a part of.

I was born into the era before post war feminism took hold in New Zealand. I’ve seen the changes but I’ve never been accepting of the negative aspects of feminism that plague men in New Zealand or internationally in a more general sense.

Some changes are obvious, while others are more subtle, and some perhaps go unnoticed in the feminization of today’s society.

Criticism (more…)

After reading the previous post I copied this here from a political page. It’s relevant to the previous post and I think some of the underlying causes that aren’t dealt with, that cause the mental health issue to grow rather than get better. (more…)

Andrew Little hides Suicide Information & Facts

The link will take you to a video.

2 Years late. Suicide figures now deleted from the NZ Mental Health Report. Andrew Little blames staff. Shawn Robinson from Newshub has asked Andrew Little how many have died under his watch. Andrew Little said he does not know. Little further says there is no more money for more services.

Andrew Little is the man who signed off on the Mental Health Report. He is the man who checked it. He knew the suicide figures where deleted. He now blames staff.

Andrew Little. The cause of suicide is abuse and unfairness. People put in unfair situations. The past suicide rates are more than 4 males to 1 female. If you stop the abuse and unfairness you will fix the males suicide problem.

Not only is Andrew Little hiding the report, he has actively created more unfairness towards men.

See here Removal of common law rights for men.

Andrew could have at a minimum acknowledge mens emotional pain.

I call on the UN for a fast track full independent enquiry.

I call on Prime Minister Jacinda Adern to rise above it and end the campaign of bitterness and nastiness towards men and boys. The alternative to that is hundreds of men and boys will be dead.

The compensation to the families who are the victims of male suicide is growing.

My humble thanks to Newhub and especially Mr Shaun Robinson who just ripped Andrew Little a new asshole.
