AIDS: The Lost Voices - Fired for being White, British & HIV+ 1/2
Part 1 of 2: The Allegations & InvestigationWilliam Hampson, host of AIDS The Lost Voices, has recently emerged from the AIDS newspaper archives as the focus of a compelling two-part episode. In January 2025, Will found himself compelled to take legal action against his employer, Fuller’s, Smith & Turner, after enduring persistent discrimination at work due to his HIV disability. Since lodging that claim a troubling paper trail emerges, documenting the pub company’s repeated efforts to obstruct his return to work and dismiss his concerns about illegal activities, compounded by further instances of HIV-related discrimination and Will was subjected to physical assault, followed by the company and its representatives retaliating with unfounded allegations of racism against him. These retaliatory accusations resulted in disciplinary measures and ultimately his dismissal, painting a stark picture of workplace injustice entwined with prejudice and abuse.However, from the outset, Will highlighted the flaws and inconsistencies in the alleged evidence. He pointed out that two witnesses who gave testimony were not present at the time of the incident. One witness, who claimed to have heard and repeated the alleged statement, was revealed to have been absent the entire day, as it was his day off. In the two-part series, Will meticulously dissects Fuller’s supposed evidence, unravelling it piece by piece with remarkable ease. His analysis exposes the company and its representatives as having fabricated claims in a bid to remove him from the organisation, motivated by prejudice against him for being ‘White, British & HIV+’.All articles and relevant documents from this episode are available on the:XTRA Tea Blog - Fired for being: White, British & HIV+----------------------------------------------------Music / Instrumental by Aries Beats 'A Sin' + WEBSITE----------------------------------------------------Third-party media: Used under 'fair use' for the sole purpose of education, criticism and/or research relating to HIV/AIDS, featured in this podcast.
