Remove Fife Threads from Trending?

Could MN consider removing the numerous “Nurse Fife” threads from the Trending section? There are several new ones a day, thousands of posts, most of them pretty inane (“Can’t wait.” “I’m still on thread 29.” “Signing on” etc etc.) Because they are so active the entire Trending section will fill up with them (Nurse Fife #24, Nurse Fife #25, Nurse Fife #26, and so on). You have to manually hide every single one and then there’s another new one in a few hours.

Can they just be removed from the Trending section? I’m sure the people interested know where to find them by now.

I don't go on trending, I just look at Active threads. But, and it may come as a surprise to you, I just don't click on threads I not interested in. I'm quite sure you could do that too.

Yes, I know you said Fife, I was merely saying, as you acknowledge, it is endemic in the NHS as a whole. Sadly.

It's really terrible that years after leaving the NHS bullying is just as rife as it ever was. Shocking. Same with the story itself which is referenced in this thread. Bullying in its cruelest form.

The story is about NHS Fife that's why I mentioned the bullying etc. I know that it unfortunately happens in many places too.

Bullying is endemic there in NHS Fife so the news story doesn't surprise me...I worked there years ago. I left to raise a family and have no regrets.

Management often do no listen to the minions at the bottom. It's deeply rooted in NHS Fife.

Not just Fife. Sadly.

The only reason many don't want it trending is because it's Fife being discussed. Most folk probably have never even heard of it let alone the topic being discussed about that health board!

In that case those who don't want to read about it can simply hide the thread. For many users on here this is a very important case for all kinds of reasons.

I am shopping-phobic and celebrity-phobic, but I wouldn't even think of questioning threads on those topics figuring in Trending.

They probably are the NHS Fife press officer!

Hummmm.... Job soon to be advertised🤷‍♀️

( if the current ooops did we say that out loud press release is anything to go by.)

Aaaand a lack of management skills when you hire a bunch of staff who think the first statement was a good idea and the Board approved it.
Sigh...

Basically sticking 2 fingers up to a Regulator while saying we have no idea we are spending 1/4 of a million+ of public funds but only 25k count

And thats ignoring the we cant talk about it but the other side are ......

too many words to say:

Honestly never imagined NHS Fife would ever be in the press on a website like MN!

I know plenty of people talking about it in real life, particularly those working in healthcare trusts.
In fact, for many of them, it’s the first time gender ideology has been on their radar in any real way.

Couldn't blame them for not wanting to be reminded of the case if so!

TerrierCollector · 19/07/2025 13:40

I’m f we all got threads we didn’t like removed from trending, there’d be nothing left. It’s an important case, and some of the proceedings has been insane, so it’s not surprising people are interested.

With a user name like Shitmonger you'll be a great fit for NHS Fife Press Officer.

It’s quite depressing how many women seem to want this whole issue to just go away, so they don’t have to look at it or think about it.

I’m guessing they’re the same people who a few years ago would have said things like: what’s the big deal? There’s no issue, why are you making a fuss?… when women starting highlighting the problems inherent in gender ideology.

Now that there are numerous real life examples of the negative effects for women and girls, they don’t want to see or hear about it. The inconvenient truth.

Well that's just patently a lie isn't it? The majority of posts are discussing the situation.

MN I really hope you don't take the Sandie Peggie Vs NHS Fife & Dr Upton out of trending because they are important threads generating a lot of interest and engagement!

Clearly a lot of people are interested in the story, I am. Mute them if you’re not interested, MN isn’t all about you.
