  1. Looks like she glued herself to the ground during a protest on a staircase outside a building? Access to the building was not blocked, and her charge was ‘criminal damage’ (I assume from the glue?)        

    I read about a neurologist who got suspended for using his wife’s oystercard (train travelcard) in London…      

    Where do you draw the line here? This sets an unsettling precedent, considering you can *technically* get arrested for much less these days.     

    I hate to point out the hypocrisy of this system, but which is worse… this… or potentially murdering babies and vulnerable people? Because Lucy Letby and Harold Shipman both had concerns raised about them for years, and FA was done about that.

  2. How is that in the public interest? Tories breaking butterflies on wheels yet again with draconian legislation that has unintended consequences out of all proportion to the original “crime”.

  3. >Dr Warner told the tribunal that climate change poses a “huge” and “urgent” problem which requires “immediate and authoritative action”.

    >As a doctor, she felt it was her duty to act on behalf of her patients and the wider public.

    She sounds much more fit to practice than the many people in important professional positions who aren’t acknowledging the crisis we are in or doing anything about it.

    This is absolutely ridiculous. I really don’t like what’s happening to this country

    I have worked with some right twats, capable of the most brain dead behavior outside of work and having (for me) pretty out there views on the world, I dont care as long as they are competent at their jobs. My colleagues are not my mates, nor is my doctor, I really dont mind as long as I get competent care, its up to the justice system to deal with this sort of thing not the GMC.
