UK doctors involved in climate protests face threat of being struck off
JonnyF replied to Social Media's topic in World News
A doctor that cannot control themselves to the point that they get a criminal conviction for smashing up a research lab on their day off should have their ability to practice removed. Unfit for the job. Totally unprofessional. Reapply in 10 years if they don't re-offend. It's akin to a teacher who burns down libraries at the weekends because they don't like the books in there. Why treat them differently because they are pearl clutching middle class, leftist hand wringers who agree with your doomsday cult predictions? Oh, wait a minute...😃 The medical profession doesn't need convicted criminal vandals who smash up things they disagree with. We have higher standards in the UK. -

I disagree. Background check. Criminal conviction found. Removed. Same as everyone else. Just because Tarquin/Penelope has a degree and a high salary and loves hugging trees makes them no different. Especially in a position like Doctor/Teacher. Struck off until their records clear in 2034. A doctor smashing up a research lab is disgraceful. -

Sure. Doctors vandalizing research labs on their day off. She's a criminal. A convicted criminal. Links below. https://www.herefordtimes.com/news/23798974.protesters-sentenced-damage-caused-sequani-ledbury/ -

Exactly. Convictions for criminal damage to a research lab of all things. And she's a Doctor. Smashing up a research lab on her day off. Yet people try to portray it as a free speech issue. 😆 -

OK so now we agree it is about criminal records. Let's put the free speech thing to bed then. That was a diversionary tactic and not a very good one if I may say so. So you'd allow someone who was convicted of willfully committing criminal damage to a research lab (in the case of Sarah Benn) to resume practicing as a Doctor? Nothing to do with their medical abilities, until possibly she disagrees with something happening at her lab and decides the best course of action is to smash it up. I wonder what she would do if her patients disagree with such strongly held beliefs? Refuse treatment like the nurse who said Tory voters should be refused treatment on the NHS? Or worse? Maybe we shouldn't wait to find out. I certainly wouldn't want her treating me if she found out my opinions on Stop Oil and the climate cult given her propensity to breaking the law and criminal damage. Certain jobs like Doctor, teacher, nurse etc. should have a clear criminal record. I believe theirs will be clean after 10 years if they stop getting caught committing criminal acts. They can reapply for jobs then. -

Thanks for pointing that out, Captain Obvious. Yes the courts decide. Just like they decided not to allow Move Forward to take power after winning the election in Thailand. Similar standards it seems. -

Quoting only the second half a sentence like that in order to change the underlying meaning is not only unscrupulous tactics, but against forum rules. Come on Chomps, you're better than that. Or at least you used to be. -

Of course it would be a good thing if politicians were not prevented from standing for election due to politically motivated cases and rulings. Or a lack of sufficient funds to appeal ludicrous awards approaching half a billion dollars. I would have thought that was obvious. Just like Brexit, the will of the people should not be overturned in courts of law (see Gina Miller's attempts if you are not familiar). The electorate should decide. Not judges, lawyers, DA's, political opponents, media etc. -

They can have their opinions. That's no problem. They can believe the earth is flat and Greta is the reincarnated daughter of the virgin Mary for all I care. It is their criminal convictions that we are discussing here. Stop trying to conflate the 2 very separate issues. Convicted criminals should not be practicing medicine. Especially those with suspended jail sentences. -

Maybe he had $410 million. That's over 400 but still not enough. Or maybe he doesn't want to put every last cent he has up to appeal such a ridiculous decision. I know I wouldn't want to. Of course, if he had Bill Gates type of money it wouldn't be a problem. Like I said, the best justice money can buy. Trying to ensnare him in legal battles to the point his political ambitions suffer. To deny this is the reality is disingenuous in the extreme. Won't work though. As the polls are showing. -

I understand perfectly how it works.😆 He needs to match the ludicrous amount that was awarded in order to appeal the decision. If he doesn't have it, he can't appeal. In order words, he needs to be uber wealthy to appeal the crazy decision to make him pay an unworldly sum of $464 million. Which is exactly what I said in the first place. I have no doubt that the ridiculous amount awarded was to stop him appealing it. $464 million for inflating assets is insane and clearly designed to wrap him up in the legal cobweb in the build up to the election. Yet the more this happens, the more popular he is. 😆 Maybe you could revert to insulting him and his fanbase? That's sure to work.... -

Wow, it appears that justice is only for the uber wealthy in the grand old US of A. $464 million to appeal a decision. Seems a tad steep. So much for the Amercian justice legal system. The best system the ultra wealthy can buy. It's a good job he's going to walk it in November. Especially since these incidents are merely adding to his popularity. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/poll-trump-leads-biden-economy/ -
Trump: ‘I don’t know’ if Putin was responsible for Navalny’s death

How would Trump know? He doesn't have the same level of relationship with the Russians as some of his political rivals. Better ask them...
