Not really our sort of neighbour

Article Abstract:

The Institute of Risk Management held a conference on anti-terrorism at the Canonbury Academy, Islington, London in Jan 1993. Islington police station advised residents of a high security event in their street, where head of MI5 Mrs Stella Rimington lives. There were parking restrictions, rooftop marksmen and visible police security. Residents felt such a conference should not be held in a residential area especially as Mrs Rimington was a possible target.

When a hug can really hurt

Article Abstract:

It can be very hard to define sexual harrassment in the workplace, as what is regarded as acceptable behaviour can vary greatly between organisations. In many cases, traditional business cultures are changing as women begin to realise that they do not have to accept male-dominated practices. The treatment of women is also changing as equal opportunities legislation comes into effect.
