Les Green (Oxford) comments; from his conclusion:
A false accusation of harassment, racism, homophobia, infidelity… damages, not only the accused, but those who, in virtue of their own decisions, can be supposed to tolerate the accused’s behaviour. So fair and accurate procedures are important, not only for the sake of those who may be wrongly accused, but also for the sake of innocent bystanders, who may be wrongly accused of tolerating the intolerable. It is time for them, and not just the wrongly accused, to speak up in favour of fair procedures. They too have an interest at stake.
