Remove Fife Threads from Trending?

140 replies

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.

Certain posters are boosting it constantly that's why. I am sure many are getting weary of the story though. I don't know anyone IRL discussing it, for example.

Whereas I know loads of people who are discussing it in IRL so....It's covered by major news networks and just about every newspaper. If you're not interested, just don't click on the thread. I'm not interested in Harry &Meghan threads but when they are trending, I just, you know, don't read them.

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

What?
That a site which is about growing/birthing/rasing humans has threads about an NHS employer who has multiple staff who cant work out if a person is female or male and some work in A&E?

Or that loads of the posters are working and dont expect that providing a strip show is part of their contract?

Shitmonger they are there because its a hot topic as people are engaging with them.

I'm sure NHS Fife would like that.

If that were true, the threads wouldn't be trending.

They're in trending because they're trending ....
That's the point!

Kinda defeating the object of the trending board which is there to get people clicking on trending topics.

And it is trending due to utter clusterfuck of an NHS dept standing on rake after rake smacking themselves in the face at every turn.

Everyone is getting fed up of hearing about The Kingdom....

If that were true, the threads wouldn't be trending.

Why on earth would they want to hide the most trending threads on Mumsnet from the trending section?

Surely you just click "Active" and hey presto - you get more than five threads to choose from.

Sandyoldelbows · 19/07/2025 07:01

No, I have found it very useful having the threads in trending. Clearly lots of people are or it wouldn’t be there!

TeenToTwenties · 19/07/2025 06:47

I totally disagree. You can't have MN messing about with trending.

On the particular threads at issue at most at anytime there will be 2. People may know where to find them, but I for one forget about things and trending / active are helpful when things restart / explode.

myplace · 19/07/2025 06:28

Only the current one will stay in trending, surely? The previous one will fall off.

I agree they’ll be hard to get into if you haven’t been following before.

I don't agree it should be removed. The whole case is coming to its conclusion. It's gripping! The whole world needs to know of the appalling treatment of Sandie Peggie and the madness, cruelty and ineptitude that led to this poor woman's situation. She is amazing, as are the women from sex-matters.org/about-us/ who are supporting her. Sandie is holding NHS Fife accountable, and the reason why is important for all women. Just ignore it if you are not interested.
