You have to read Tim Barnett’s gasp inducing self congratulation over the Peter Ellis case to appreciate how delusional his position is.
Tim’s argument is that sure, the fucking imbeciles of Christchurch actually believed there was a satanic cult murdering and sexually abusing their children in the 1990s, sure the Police framed Peter for crimes he never committed with a blatantly compromised questioning process of the children, sure some of the Police investigating the case were also having sexual relationships with the solo mothers involved, sure the parents got $10 000 payouts from ACC for their children being ‘victims’, and sure Peter died before he was ever cleared – sure to all that says Tim, but in the end, Society doesn’t judge gay men with the same level of contempt so, ‘always look on the bright side of life’!
Fuck me Tim, there’s glass half full and then there is your delusional response to being able to achieve sweet fuck all to save Peter during that time, but yay, Gay men are loved now and this would never happen again.
I want whatever Tim is smoking which is also clearly being shared by ECMENZ, the national group for male early childhood educators who have come out and said they hope now Peter had had his conviction quashed, that men will feel safe to become early childhood educators again!!!!!!!

Sorry, I’m just picking myself up from the floor after laughing my spleen out.
I mean, sure ECMENZ, the insane imbalance of children raised with no males in their lives is incredibly damaging. We are a nation of children raised by solo mothers with all the carnage that brings where fatherhood is a woke crime against intersectional feminsim, but if you think that Peter having his conviction quashed after death will inspire men to start working with children, you are as delusional as Tim Barnett!
We all know hand on heart in the post me too world, that if allegations surfaced right now online that you were molesting a child at a creche, you would already be judged and convicted on Twitter and sacked before the end of the week!
That’s there true tragedy of Peter Ellis, that we all know that the woke Lynch mobs have replaced those who believe in Satan, and they are the new witch trials.
Men have learned culturally to never ever be alone with any children. EVER!
You simply can’t risk any situation where there aren’t always another pair of eyes on you, that’s just the truth men find themselves in and it extends to female and male interaction now as well. You ask how many executives or men in power mentor women now, and the answer is a resounding ‘no way’.
If anything you say triggers someone, your career is over.
Nothing has changed since Peter was falsely accused, if anything it’s worse now.
Peter is a cautionary tale, not a new age of understanding.

Social Welfare psychologist, Sue Sidey, conducted most of the 118 evidential child interviews used at the trial, Not the police. But they sure relied upon it.
The entire interviewing process was flawed with big delays between initial disclosure and interviews and with little kids, last week is a lifetime ago. And Sidley wasn’t an expert interviewer, and to be fair its not certain there was such a thing then. It was that flawed interview process that police relied upon that was the problem!
I get you unquestionably hate the police but if thats all you ever want to see then you miss all the other real issues that were the real cause. The whole process from go to whoa with ALL agencies involved was in hindsight, very poor.
You didn’t require hindsight. It was obviously bullshit all round at the time.
Tim Barnett chaired the Justice and Electoral committee that considered petition calling for Royal Commission for Ellis 2003.
The committee finally reported after an unprecedented two years of consideration, released, get this, on the day Parliament rose before the 2005 election season, thus cravenly avoiding Q@A scrutiny.
The whole exercise of committee deliberations was a sham, designed to delay the issue and bury the adverse publicity the case received after Goff’s sham Eichelbaum Inquiry and release of Hood’s book.
I was at Barnett’s Press conference when the committee’s findings were released, his dissimulation was loathsome.
The mystery of justice ministers and how they behaved, is yet to be explained, if ever. Philip Goff and the Clarke administration was severely compromised so can be discounted as impartial. I would like to hear some reasons from the Key era ministers as why they didn’t do anything. Chris Finlayson has quite a lot to say, but unusually nothing much about Peter Ellis. Whether they were bullied into submission by Sian Elias et al is just conjecture.
How much do those politicians “in charge” wait for retirements or deaths of important players to happen?
“The mystery of justice ministers and how they behaved, is yet to be explained, if ever. ”
There was at least one complainant parent working in the Beehive for a Govt minister over that period [circa early 2000s].
Court orders prohibiting the identification of complainants has prevented much explanatory information becoming public. It’s an unbelievably murky business.

And Miriam Saphira was honoured this year?!!!
Love your work Martyn
