Not that you'd ever think it would happen. Until you have cause to pay attention.

Question a doctor and lose your children, no matter how sick the child is.

It's a genuinely scary thing to grasp. But it's an ever-present possibility, sadly.

Secrecy allows it to happen. All controversial cases should be in the public domain, so the public can see how power is abused

That's a major part of it, I agree. But there's also a general issue with judicial deference to doctors too. How does this manifest itself when assessing any applications to the courts from trusts? That's supposed to be our safety net.https://twitter.com/C7RKY/status/938181151880908800 …

John Clarke @C7RKY>> We should not underestimate the significance of this observation: "This suggests a persisting judicial deference to the medical profession, which is supported by the construction of the judgment. This may result in the perpetuation of Bolam in informed consent cases"Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Often they bypass courts themselves and get social services to do the dirty work. Saves them £. Agree judges shouldn't rubber stamp.

Yes, I'm mindful of that too. The look on the face of the guy at the local authority trying to sort out little one's school finding today was a picture when I told him there was no chance I was signing his blanket consent form for all agencies to access the info. Oh no...

That won't fit their system at all, as all agencies work together now. The modern alternative to a statement is multi agency

Yes, this is a transition. I've told them that if they make clear who wants what piece of infor and for what purpose re demonstrating the funding need, then I'll consent to that. Told him 'I'll give you absolutely everything you need, but absolutely nothing you don't.' >>

>> Caused confusion at first, but when I explained my reasons he was actually quite understanding. He's getting information governance to call me to see how it can be accommodated. Let's see how they react next. One step at a time... :)
