A former Civil Servant who sued the Cabinet Office and former Cabinet Secretary Simon Case for ‘direct discrimination and harassment’ has now turned on another former employer, power giant Drax. It’s getting legal tongues wagging…
Rowaa Ahmar previously lodged two claims against Case, the Cabinet Office and three others on the grounds of discrimination over ‘sex and race’ as well as ‘victimisation’. She later withdrew the discrimination case with no payment made. Oops…
After leaving the civil service, Ahmar took up a role with Drax as Group Head of Public Affairs. The role, however, only lasted for six months and Ahmar is once again suing. Drax is understood to be ready to fight the claims strongly and considers the matter vexatious. Guido hears another case against a previous employer was also stood down. Funny old world…
Red Wall Labour backbencher Jonathan Brash told GB News that Starmer should resign:
“I’m completely fed up about it, and I think it’s got to the point now where I genuinely think that, as far as the Prime Minister is concerned, it’s not a case of if, it’s when.”
