the dream is Searle up in front of the regulator and her calling Upton as a witness.
Boss of trans doctor in case of nurse suspended for challenging medic's use of female changing room denies she 'deliberately' concealed a 'seriously embarrassing' email from tribunal Visit dailymail.co.uk/scotland dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
I honestly thought I was beyond being shocked by the abject garbage that comes out of James O'Brien's mouth. Apparently not. I and most of my family went to Hebrew school and guess what we learned there? Hebrew. Breaking news! You can be horrified by Gaza and not be antisemitic!
This is simply untrue. Every detail is wrong and the allegations are antisemitic. How can it have been aired?
First they came for the communists, and Kate Searle was like "They're in the attic. Do you need any help?"
kate searle helpfully illustrating the problem. (can she be this stupid?)
KS - reported it as and still do think it's a HI NC - you are aware SP has been cleared of all KS - yes NC - board didn't find. KS - believe not enough evidence NC - email to ED, you say SP hard to work with before today, beth has a log of less severe incidents
Jesus Christ.
was wrong in the same way a mna in F prison is wrong. KS - no, it was a well known case, like saying DU is like a convicted rapist in a F prison NC - saying SP said isla bryson KS - I think we just agreed that is what she meant J - qu was did she use the words KS - no she didn't
stop embarrassing yourself like this, Doctor. please.
JR - not pu tto the witness NC - will put it, DU is obviously a man KS - no NC - under oath, credibility important, saying you woundn't know DU was a TW unless told? KS - wouldn't have known what sex DU assigned at birth NC - he said just like person in prisons, agreed
“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
i’m a very brave and clever doctor and if a woman wants a man to leave a woman-only space, she should ask gently.
J - put it differently NC - a woman found a trans ID man in F CR, she said he shouldn't be there, he said he's entitled to. That in your view is enough to be harassment and a HI. KS - not those 9 lines no NC - she was in her rights to object KS - not in that manner DU described
is she? aw?
NC - not for her but for the consequences for you of making up something she said? KS - no absolutely not. NC - moving onto Xmas eve... JR - KS is becoming visibly distressed J - break? KS - no thank you. NC - page 270 please. 2nd email is DU to you in small hours Xmas am
Interesting how both Isla Bumba and Kate Searle relied on Google to provide them with advice on the law relating to single sex changing rooms. I wonder what their views are on people googling their symptoms and relying on that for medical advice.
excellent news. Jenny’s a great columnist.
*Good personal news klaxon!* Delighted to say I've been asked to join The Scotsman as a regular columnist, every Monday, starting next week. Enjoyed writing some pieces for them last month and looking forward to a regular column. Onwards! x
“I received an email today from Carole in Skegness, who assured me her dad’s neighbour’s best friend’s postman went to a Jewish Yom Kippur Rave in a field, and Jews were sniffing glue and bbq’ing Muslim kittens”
“this is fine. I am brave. I am wise. I am brave. this is fine. I am a brave doctor. this is fine.”
i hope they both feel exactly as they look.
Sandie Peggie and Dr Kate Searle arrive at Employment Tribunal in Dundee today. @ForWomenScot
my @MailOnline column about the tyrants of the lanyard class: dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
I know lots of doctors who I trust, but the two things are not necessarily consequential. See Shipman, H, for example
NC I suggest u conspired not to produce it Absolutely not. I'm a dr and trustworthy. NC Yr regulator wld be concerned about this if you hadnt? KS we have to work w honesty and integrity
tip for future @nhsfife witnesses: pretend you’re not insufferably arrogant.
