This continues from an earlier story about the adjourned hearing on the 5th October 2018.

Today was a hearing in the two linked cases (E14YJ013 & E24YJ652) brought by Ms Chalmers against Wirral Borough Council.

The hearing was scheduled for 10.00 am but I was told when I arrived (having walked about a mile and a half there which was faster than the buses and traffic were going) that the hearing was likely to start late due to the gridlocked traffic.

Attending today for the Defendant Wirral Council was Mr Bayatti (a solicitor working for Wirral Council) and two other Wirral Council employees who although present for the hearing did not speak during the hearing.
