    @jegga It seems some students and parents are keen to prove the principal's point.

    @jegga one of my best mates used to have a high position at that school. From listening to his stories, apparently in retaliation to that speech, the kids are acting exactly as they normally would, being fluffybunnies and trashing the joint. That school seems fucked.

    What on earth are they taking a stand on? Their right to wag school? Jesus this stuff makes you despair for humanity.

    Fraser High has had problems since the days of Martin Elliott. While the principal might have gone a little too far she is right. Unfortunately the very students she is referring to probably weren't at the assembly anyway.

    The parent named Jo Scott sounds like an absolute winner .

    Parents Jo Scott and Justine Kettle were unimpressed with Crawford's comments.

    Scott, who has a son in Year 11 at the school, said she was proud of the kids taking a stand for what they believed in.

    "I think good on the kids for standing up to her."

    She no longer supported the principal, she said.

    "Do I support the principal? Nah. I might have last week but not anymore. How can you support someone who's just called all our kids losers?"

    Scott wanted to see Crawford apologise for what she said, a sentiment shared by other students who were protesting this morning.

    Definitely not on the list for my son in a few years. I will try and live in HBHS zone by then or near one of the other better Co-ed schools.

    God forbid they interpreted her tough position on things as coming from a place of caring, even if she did go a bit HAM. But I think she should have known going in that a lot of kids would gleefully avoid the nuance and that she was generalising, and go to town on her.

    On a random FB post I saw that her husband has also gotten offside with folks with a 'rant' in assembly at another school. Sounds more like two educators that really give a shit and are trying to get that message across to their kids.

    Seems like people are falling over themselves to say that she's calling any student absence as evidence they'll become a rapist ffs.

    You must be pleased your mate isn’t teaching there anymore, it must be soul destroying teaching such weapons grade Ferals .

    @jegga I saw a photo of her in the Sunday newspaper. Not to be judgmental but she's obviously spent the last few years eating well.

    Was thinking the same, mind you if you had an Uber creep like him stalking you gaining a few kilos to try and put him off is a small price to pay.

    I'm no SJW, but the last few posts are pretty shit. She's aware she's put on weight, but bearing in mind the stress she's been under, you could understand her weight has been the least of her worries:

    And Stuff Circuit is told by several people who know MacGregor how much she has changed herself - something she frequently acknowledges.
    
    She speaks of how tired she’s become. She makes repeated reference to the amount of weight she’s gained. She says she rarely goes out - she’s quieter, socially withdrawn - and her relationships with her friends are altered.
    
    Partly that’s because the strict terms of the confidentiality agreement mean she can’t even talk to her friends and family about what happened.

    Fair call . I was pretty horrified yesterday reading what that piston wristed gibbon has put her through.
