Appreciated. Unity hasn't been so hard to come by in finding support against #BawaGarba's erasure tho. Inappropriately, imho.
But in doing so, clinicians have demonstrated they have the power to provoke review as a group. How that power is/isn't utilised in future will be telling

Yes Hadiza got practical crowdfunding with a great deal of help of whistleblowers
@54kdoctors and others. IMO Hadiza's case is related to whistleblowing, in the sense that this is what could happen when you obediently try and work through a dangerous system1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Related to whistleblowing how? I'm not sure I follow your thinking. I'm afraid patients are not viewing this from the same angle. We just see a profession appealing a convicted criminal's erasure & blaming the 'system', despite the court's words. Smacks of self-serving I'm afraidpic.twitter.com/ccaVI4y6A6

From this same judgement you've screenshot both parties don't dispute that Hadiza's errors were not made deliberately or recklessly and mention is made from the criminal trial that "Nor were they, as Nicol J had said, the result of laziness or selfishness"

That has no bearing on her conviction for gross negligence manslaughter. It's not self serving for doctors to see themselves in Hadiza and how close they could came to a similar tragedy. We don't know how adequately all factors were covered in her trial..

Exactly. We don't know. But whatever detail emerged at the inquest which unusually provoked a police investigation, clearly remained compelling enough for a jury to deem her actions 'truly exceptionally bad'. It's a high bar. Few ever clear it. We can't just dismiss that.

And the reason it appears self serving is because there was barely a whimper from clinicians when BG was convicted of GNM. Nobody seemed to care. Only when she was struck off, did cries of foul emerge. You have no idea how weird that looks to non-HCPs

I think that’s the crux of the matter here John. I want medics to take collective action and be outraged when patients suffer as a result of systemic failings, provide families with answers and fix what’s gone wrong.

https://www.crowdjustice.com/case/junior-doctors-round-3/ … This is a good example of exactly that. 4,000 backers on
@CrowdJustice but practically ignored by several prominent lay patient safety campaigners. Can't expect NHS staff to speak out if the majority of the public look the other way when they are crushed1 reply 1 retweet 1 like -
Chris, I am aware of what happened to you. It saddens me that we all seem to be in silos on these issues and there is no understanding that we all want the same thing, safe, effective care.

Me too. And none of us have managed to get the 'majority of the public' to back us over *anything*. Most are blissfully ignorant of the alarming NHS reality that vexes us all. 'Prominent patient safety campaigners' I'd expect to be more vocal though. No blissful ignorance there.
