| Subject: Statist cunts win sex discrimination case: hands too small for glock pistols Mon Feb 17, 2014 4:20 pm | |
| Two ‘petite’ firearms officers are set to receive a pay-out of £70,000 after winning a sex discrimination case over the size of their big guns.
Victoria Wheatley and Rachael Giles said their weapons were too big for their small hands and as a result they could not reach the trigger, a tribunal has heard.
The two women struggled with the grip of the pistols they were using – a Glock 17 – and they also claimed their heads and legs were too small for their protective gear.
The case, held at the Central London Employment Tribunal last week, found the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) guilty of discrimination against both officers in the provision of suitable firearms and safety equipment.
It is understood the officers are set to receive £35,000 each after winning the case against the force – but there is expected to be an appeal.
