With the passing of Ozzy Osbourne, let's take a moment to remember what his death is really about - the absolutely dogshit political opinions of union organiser Matt Hollinshead apparently, who's somehow managed to crowbar them in to the fucking casket.
The number of professional reputations being trashed in the Sandie Peggie tribunal, as cosy ideology meets the cold light of exposure to truth, is quite staggering.
Two observations. 1. Those who attacked this young Christian would never have done the same to a Muslim street preacher. 2. They almost certainly consider themselves part of the 'Be Kind' brigade.
Young Christian attacked in Camden for debating Christian values with members of the public. How are these extremists allowed to assault Christians with impunity? @YoungBobTPUK
“if everyone was kind.” absolutely fuck this.
KS - policy said intimidating or offensive in way you say, that's enough. If everyone was kind and said things another say there was no need for it to come to this. NC - think briefly about another person, not a man who thinks/wishes he was a woman - a man in mans clothes - Pete
“this is fine. I am brave. I am wise. I am brave. this is fine. I am a brave doctor. this is fine.”
Great and pertinent question. At what point will SNP ministers step in to do their jobs?
If a group of 6 doctors came together to collude and lie about a band 5 nurse to get her fired, WHAT ELSE WILL THEY LIE ABOUT?
Good news. But until we see the managers and leaders responsible for these injustices being held to account and fired, ordinary workers will continue to be persecuted and the public purse will have to pay out.

I can't make up my mind if Searle naively thought a deleted email could not be expertly recovered or it's hubris and she thought no one would disbelieve and investigate an "honest doctor" like her.
Dr Searle denied “deliberately concealing” an email sent in Jan 2024 by fellow consultant Dr Currer, with 6 potential witnesses plus Dr Upton included. Ms Cunningham: “I want to suggest you deliberately concealed it to conceal wrongdoing of colleagues.” 1/2
The James O’Brien clip is one of the most upsetting things I’ve heard from a broadcaster in years. Pure, unfiltered, anti-Semitic slander.
Good news.
Transgender man who unfurled Palestinian flag on stage at The Royal Opera House says he was told by the Opera House director that he will never work for them again. “You will never work for the opera house ever again.”
A brilliant observation on all this "gender assigned at birth" nonsense. More than nonsense – a lie.
It takes some sort of professional arrogance to assume that if a new parent was handed a new baby that was evidently male or female, and a doctor [pause for veneration, hymns of praise etc etc] told them the opposite they'd just say "oh, right, OK".

It's a decision made at birth by the ppl delivering the baby, I believe. I'm not an expert at it. NC So sex assigned at birth is whether u have a M or F body? Yes NC Bio sex is very important [lists re responses to drugs, normal ranges for bld results] KS Yes

Anybody who has ever used the term ‘lived experience’ in earnest to be deported.
I want to speak briefly about an element of the James O'Brien story which has been underdiscussed in the understandable outrage about his repetition of comments aimed at British Jews. And that's the Ha'aretz poll he was citing prior to that: A 🧵
@BBCNews Did you go to a different tribunal than the one we all followed? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
I spend so much of my time defending the BBC but this is indefensible. It makes zero sense to anyone who's read even a few lines about this tribunal. A MAN wanted to force a woman to change in front of him. The NHS wanted to punish her for saying no. That's it. That's the story.
The BBC view the tribunal through the lens of the "distress" of Dr Upton. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
I have No confidence in any doctor who does not recognise biological sex. So far we have heard two doctors at @nhsfife deny biology. Are they fit to practise medicine @gmcuk ?
doctors need to know the sex of their patients for multiple clinical (safety) reasons. Sex is determined at conception and recognised often in utero and described at birth. It's not assigned like a random dicethrow. We know this.
How could he possibly do that? He whipped his MSP’s to vote for the GRR. What Labour’s Anas Sarwar should be doing is offering Sandy Peggie and all women an unqualified and equivocal apology for doing that as well as publicly changing Labours stance.
I'm missing something here, obviously. My feed used to be populated with the occasional sensible Scottish Nat. Now all I see is these zoomers banging on about oil and the UN and currency. What's going on? Iran? China?
Why on earth would we use the Pound Sterling when every other country that left the Empire has its own currency?
