WORKPLACE CULTURE
Brittany Higgins’ story is sadly still far too common (“Confronting the toxic culture in Canberra”,
The Age, 18/2). We still see it across many settings – sporting clubs, businesses, care institutions, churches, schools, medical and law precincts. You are not a team player if you speak up in defence of someone. Silence and solidarity cover up failure, and put the institution before the individual.
Paul, son of Wilf. I always had that when I was growing up.
I always used to hope that one day, they’d introduce him as Wilf McGuinness, dad of Paul, but it’s never happened and I don’t think it ever will. That’s fair enough, for lots of reasons.
He represented England at every level from schoolboys upwards, captained England schoolboys with Bobby Charlton in his team, was a Busby Babe all the way through to the first team at Manchester United, became a full England international, broke his leg and had his career ended at 22. Then, he coached England to the World Youth Cup when he was 25, helped with the senior England World Cup squad, became United manager at 32, then went on to have more managerial experience at other clubs in different places. When you look at it all, it’s unbelievable.

A grandmother who was found dead in her home had sustained multiple stab wounds, a murder trial heard today.
The High Court in Edinburgh was told that several of the injuries inflicted on 54-year-old Margaret Robertson could have caused her death on their own.
Pathologist Dr David Sadler said: “There were maybe three or four of the stab wounds that could have been fatal in themselves.”
Ms Robertson, known as Meg, was found dead at her flat at Promenade Court, in Aberdeen, in September 2019 with serious injuries that included neck wounds.
