HemmingGate: To ban or not to ban, that is the question MNHQ

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01pr33b sneak peep of JH on panorama tonight

He is going to be all over the Panorama programme like a fly around shit.

Spero I meant I have no hope at all for the Panorama program tonight, since finding out JH is on it

I do share your hopes I think :)

OK - just read the blurb, he is going to be on the programme
I will never respect panorama again

I hope panorama are sensible enough not to have JH on

JH prevents any proper discussion of the care system/ wrong medical diagnosis because he has his own agenda

I am getting more hopeful Lilka.

For eg Martin Narey has been engaging with some of us on Twitter in a way which suggests that he agrees with the points we are making about JH. He has even tweeted that no one in Gov listens to him (JH) and various people have pointed out that isn't good enough, Government should act to correct the really dangerous misinformation spread by likes of JH and IJ.

I have literally no hope at all

I am going to watch too, but fear I may implode in impotent rage unless the program surprises with a balanced view of problems that can arise in a large, overstretched, underfunded and undersupported system vs JH's loony tunes views.
I shall hope against hope...

I'm dreading Panorama tonight. I will watch it but...

Yes, the fact that in rare cases a wrong diagnosis of a medical problem can be made, is an issue worth talking about. As is 'how can a parent clear their name after a wrong diagnosis has been made'. BUT I truly don't think tonight's program is going to provide a sensible discussion of this issue. I think it's going to be hideously sensationalist, and veer towards castigating all social workers and doctors, with lots of JH and perhaps a token statement from a professional/LA at the end

good day ladies, I am returned from the the banishment of not paying bill on t'internet...happily they have now fraked my bank account which means I can lose lots of weight not eating but can MN instead.

o I dunno sausages, I have been using quite a lot of WORDS about JH since Christmas and so far not deleted...

Heard the piece on BBC this morning, they said "coming up, the mp advising parents to flee the country" and my first thought was 'ooh.. bet it's JH'.

There are no words, that won't get me deleted...

Hah! I like where he says 'go abroad if it is legal'.

What an disgrace.

It is an utter mystery to me, and has been now for several years, that he is permitted to take money from the tax payer in his MP salary yet can carry on accusing the entire child protection system of corruption and children being snatched for financial gain and nobody seems to care or do anything about him.

Instead he gets a slot on Panorama.

bloody marvelous.

Whoops, meant to say I saw that.

Yes, I say that. How unpleasant. What about, I don't know, making sure they can actually get a fair trial! Rather than just saying they can't, better pop off abroad until it all blows over.

Bit perturbed to see JH on BBC Breakfast today talking about the programme on tonight and repeating his "advice" to parents who come onto SS radar to go abroad if at all possible... Obviously a) BBC don't read twitter; or b) BBC don't care

Ladies, thread is about 800 posts now.... Just saying that I will have to disappear for a few days. Not been banned, just studying. I am reachable through FB anyway ;)

Which is why I really hope that enough people complain to enough people in power to get him investigated/deselected whatever.

then MAYBE some lazy arsed journo might be bothered to dig a little deeper into what he is saying

and a slow week. that's serendipity. A helping hand from the gods, as it were.

but thats ok too.

Carpe, you could always add me and come join MrsD in the fight on my timeline!

They have only picked up on this because of the o so amusing hook of male politician getting pissed on website full of women.

I guess you are right.

Because no journalist, sadly, is interested in anything he says. They have only picked up on this because of the o so amusing hook of male politician getting pissed on website full of women.

Well that Telegraph article is only a month old, I wonder why no journo bothered to point out Hemming's double standard?

I suppose "Lib-Dem MP is Massive Fucking Hypocrite" is hardly news these days.
