I worked as a Doctor for NHS for 42y from 1980. I live in Ballachulish, Scotland.

Some of our members attended the tribunal in Dundee today to give support to Sandie Peggie and her family. We were shocked to hear some of the completely unscientific comments made by supposed intelligent healthcare professionals which to be quite honest would make most women…
Partha Kar, a Royal College of Physicians councillor, says that he will appeal the college’s “disproportionate” decision to suspend his registration over what he claims was “whistleblowing” bmj.com/content/390/bm…
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.
KS - speak to line manager if not content, if not content with response, escalate to their lead, and other ways, up the chain. J - who within Fife may have given approval to DU to use FCR? KS - don't think it was ever discussed, don't know but don't think discussed outwith dept
Withholding dodgy emails. Claiming you have to be an 'expert' to know the sex of a baby. Considering reporting a woman to the police for the 'crime' of objecting to a man in her changing room. How daft/disingenuous/mad are Sandie's senior colleagues? They aren't even ashamed.
Trying to further smear Sandie Peggie's by using false allegations about her relationship with her daughter is a new low, even for this court case. NHS Fife and their legal team appear to have lost their marbles, as well as their moral bearings.
Jeez do I need to go back under oath to clear this up😝 My mum is my best friend, has and always will be. Her only concern is if I’m happy🩷
He felt uncomfortable’ that a female nurse didn’t want to ‘engage’ in undressing with him. And even when she tried to do the right thing - by staying out of his way while he was in the changing room - that action was thought of as ‘bad behaviour’. JFC what dark days for women.
The majority of AGPs are heterosexual, a lot of them married with children. They actually have no desire to be women, they just want to emulate them and be affirmed by them. It's a sexual fetish not a need to change sexes.
You’d have to be pretty determined to sit and fill all that in. I wonder what other demands on their time these two had to put off, or not meet at all
The RCN @theRCN is getting negative press in Scotland over its attitude to single sex spaces at work. How did professional bodies including @RCPhysicians and @THEGMC succumb to such illogical cultlike beliefs? @jk_rowling @DrLKVaughan
It appears to now be considered safe by some previously totally silent Labour women MPs to tweet about upholding the Supreme Court ruling. Where have they been though, for all the years when we needed to hear from them? Excuse me if I decline to open the Champagne. #Cowards
bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… Ms Myles appears to be the only rational balanced person representing NHS Fife management. She did not accept hearsay and rumour. She told Consultants they were badly wrong if they had not reported concerns about Patient Safety and Racism. @jk_rowling
NHS Fife female consultants who backed biological male Dr Upton don't have to share changing room with him. Instead, those hypocrites get their own facilities as senior members of staff so wouldn't be using the same single-sex spaces as a biological man. scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/news/politics/…
“Dr Upton says ‘I’m biologically female’, though we should also acknowledge that ‘the term biologically female or biologically male is completely nebulous’. I remind you that this person is a qualified physician.” thetimes.com/uk/scotland/ar…
youtu.be/OrLdKYRBOEE?si… @rongord @somersetwyvern The amount of history and science I've learned since listening to Sailing to Philadelphia years ago, is amazing. @MarkKnopfler
Double standards. They didn’t want him in their space, jingling his jangles, watching them undress.
Ok then- given it my thought and discussed with family. Given decision of @RCPhysicians ? The next stage will be the appeal Since opportunity to resolve not taken- there are next steps accordingly I categorically refute the conclusion- which is biased, and…
Never forget: women can't know for sure they're women unless they've had their chromosomes checked, but if a man says he's a woman he's definitely a woman and it is highly offensive to mention his chromosomes, which are entirely irrelevant to whether or not a person is a woman.
