Doctors who remain silent and doctors lying about the circumstances of a child's death and falsifying medical records are two completely different scenarios. Do you think doctors that cause the death of children or our loved ones should have the right to remain silent?

John, I've been highlighting the importance of a Freestanding Legal Duty of Candour for for all healthcare professionals for 22yrs after my wife & I sacrificed in excess of 300k to expose it. If NHS complainants don't recognise its importance then that is of course up to them!

You know I already appreciate every point you raise there, Will. Your journey has been as ground-breaking as it's been heart-breaking. God knows we've talked about it enough, you & I. But I also think there's value in understanding what challenges we'll face in gaining acceptance

I've no problem with the value in understanding & discussing anything to do with the NHS & cover ups John but how any NHS complainant can oppose a Freestanding Legal Duty of Candour for ALL healthcare professionals [Robbie's Law] is beyond me. I've got plenty experience. BW. Will

I'm v clear on it - I think it should be a criminal offence for a doctor to lie to a patient/relatives. I regard the doctor/patient relationship as a unique one, in which lies translate to abuse. I want
#RobbiesLaw. No question. Hence the need to understand all implications. :) -
A doctor lying about the negligent death of a patient is a criminal offence John as is the falsification of medical records. However, police & CPS rarely implement the law with no redress for the victims as the establishment is protected by the courts. See 1994-97 articles below!pic.twitter.com/oTd1WDNkn7

So hang on then... how does that square with this, from a previous tweet of yours? I thought this was what you managed to establish as the legal position previously, but they don't seem to match. What am I missing?https://twitter.com/c7rky/status/937834344336457728?s=21 …

There's a distinction between civil & criminal law which I've always made clear as does ECtHR's ruling in Robbie's case. "Whilst it is arguable that doctors had a duty not to falsify medical records under the common law" - CPS agreed 'sufficient evidence' to prosecute the GPs! :(pic.twitter.com/loFQA1ITxt

The 35 suggested criminal charges in 2002 against the 5 GPs & their secretary has also been made public John: 1. Gross negligence Manslaughter 2. Forgery 3. Perverting the course of justice 4. Conspiracy to pervert justicehttps://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/prosecute-doctors-over-death-son-7314074 …

Any good journalist plays devil’s advocate, if the interviewee's case is strong, he has good arguments to answer.

There are a lot of hurt, traumas. And fluctuating vulnerability eg. around anniversary dates of loss/harm, other memory-triggers. And it's impossible to be guarded and strong all of the time. There are strong people on here, who are still vulnerable in grief; compassion matters.

We live life, with the hammer of the gun cocked and that gun pressed against our heads. We just have to remember the gun isnt real, but the bullets are sadly. Stay strong everyone xxx
