[QUOTE="Salvia, post: 1394439, member: 278312"] One last thing then I'll shut up and let you get on with preparing your questions and responses. You really do need someone who will stand up, speak up, argue your case clearly and fully and basically fight on your behalf - you can't do that for yourself; you are too close and too involved. Plus you have no experience of dealing with these things, your employers do and so do trade unions and solicitors. They can be objective, detached and fight your corner without getting too emotional in the process, and without conceding that it's all your fault, coz it isn't, based on what you have told us in this thread. What I'm saying is that the person needs to be more than just someone to accompany you to meetings and hold your hand - they've got to be a thinker, an advocate and a fighter, and one who will not be intimidated by the process. On the disability discrimination side, I've deliberately not mentioned your diabetes in my responses because nothing you have said indicates that their action was related to your condition. But, if your condition did affect your ability to do the job, and your manager knew about it, then that needs to be dealt with as part of your defence. [/QUOTE]
