Warrant officer loses sex case
Warrant officer Angela McConnell has resigned from the Army
A warrant officer has lost her claim for sexual discrimination against the Ministry of Defence.
Angela McConnell had claimed the army discriminated against her by treating her more harshly than a major she had an affair with.
Mrs McConnell claims she was recommended for demotion or dismissal while the major was allowed to retire.
But an employment tribunal in Southampton has ruled against her.
Mrs McConnell, 41, of Main Road, West Lulworth, Wareham, Dorset, was also unsuccessful in her claim that she had been harassed into having an affair with the major.
Her third claim that she had been threatened in a letter by the major was also unsuccessful.
A tribunal spokeswoman said Mrs McConnell had a right to appeal.
