Possibly also featuring on Newsnight shortly. Yet more evidence of why we need proper protection for whistleblowers and vulnerable members of the public. Cat Smith MP Tim Farron Simon Fell MP Lord Walney Washburn Underground Mary Robinson MP Susan Kramer Kevin Hollinrake MP
Private Eye, featuring the frustrating lack of progress of the Whistleblowing Bill despite all-party support. Why, esp' after the Post Office scandal, is our gov't so fearful of encouraging speaking up?
Thx to the Eye, & Dr Phil Hammond 💙.

In Private Eye Magazine, I write about the side effects of allowing the private sector to cherry pick up to 75% of the cataracts in some areas, taking staff with them & leaving the NHS with less money to treat more complex patients. Plus advise for whistleblowers from Peter Duffy.
Jeremy Hunt The taxpayer continues to fund blindingly obvious attempts to silence & crush Dr Chris Day for doing his job and protecting sick patients! We ask you to join our call on the #EAT to challenge appallingly injustice in the #ET

Peter Duffy Sirin Kale The Guardian Thanks so much Peter. Since meeting Martyn and Sirin our eyes have been opened even wider; senior figures within the NHS put their reputation and egos above patient safety; stopping at nothing to protect themselves.
A terrible story. Whilst it's centred on maternity & midwifery, the standards & antagonism towards anyone trying to change the system for the better is all too familiar.
It's a long read, but worth sticking with. Cat Smith MP Tim Farron Simon Fell MP WhistleblowersUK

The chair of our Health Focus Group Peter Duffy supported by vice chair Dr💙Ravi had a busy day yesterday discussing firstly with Sky News describing why whistleblowing in the #NHS is futile & risky for staff and patients, later joined by Steve Turner - 💚💙 for APPG for Whistleblowing
Another whistleblowers life wasted. Someone committed to making life safer for others, is themselves destroyed. Just because they stood for safety, rather than corporate profits and spin. Cat Smith MP Tim Farron Simon Fell MP Lord Walney Mary Robinson MP WhistleblowersUK

Did you see this one? Fascinating personal experience of #whistleblowing in the NHS by Peter Duffy Peter Duffy.

Peter Duffy This study from 2013 found that FT governors were marginalised around patient safety within organisations. Information disparities compared with board availability deeply problematic. It might have changed, but not for the better since then.

An important point, otherwise known as the NHS magic roundabout. And, of course, it means that rather than poor practice & risk taking being contained and dealt with, it is instead rewarded & disseminated around the country.
Please let Russell Dunkeld know of any other examples.
People ask us what the #WhistleblowingBill will do

Newsnight, BBC 2. 10.30 tonight. Yet another example of an NHS consultant surgeon standing up for patient safety against other vested interests and being dismissed. This is getting worse, not better. Cat Smith MP Tim Farron Simon Fell MP Mary Robinson MP Udo Bergholz bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
People keep asking us “What is #whistleblowing ?
It is simple it is calling out concerns at the time that they happen with the intention of protecting the public from harm.
Support the #WhistleblowingBill and ensure that every citizen can be protected against backlash!
