Posted his request about 5 minutes ago (or at least thats when I saw it) on twitter.

Im not even particularly anti trans, but when I see attempts to whip up mobs like that, I feel that hes making people anti trans.

Sort makes me want to resort to making insidious dog whistle anti trans rhetoric just to fuck with him.

Leaving his trans stance aside, going by the rest of his twitter offerings, hes definitely not the person I would want as a GP. Lacks decorum and gravitas.

Thanks Ygrittesnow for the Arla product list. It's interesting that they're a cooperative. I'm off to Nhs shopping hour tomorrow morning. Already need Lurpak but glad to know they make Skyr and I'll ongoingly change my milk to Arla.

Also need cheap margarine for a cake - never buy Flora now so I know my shopping changes stick.

I remember reading somewhere his mum was actually proud of him ffs.

Lordfrontpaw · 18/04/2020 11:21

His poor mum. I’d be so disappointed if my son turned out to be so anti-woman he tried to make a career out of it.

Thank god he's gay (he is isn't he?) at least no woman has to deal with his nonsense. Is he really a doctor? I find that hard to believe.

FannyCann · 18/04/2020 11:12

It's extraordinary how he somehow got through medical school and GP training. In these days of informed consent, nothing about me without me and a general realisation that paternalism is medicine is no longer acceptable somehow Ade maintains that Dr knows best, especially him. I don't know how anyone can bear to work with him.

True - but they put me in mind of certain old school gay comedians/actors who had a particularly violent and nasty streak towards women, and they were often the brunt of their jokes and treated like idiots. And people clapped.

popehilarious · 18/04/2020 10:52

I doubt those two are representative of gay men, as a group, to most people!

Lordfrontpaw · 18/04/2020 10:43

It’s really not doing gay men any favours -
A couple of nasty misogynists.

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 18/04/2020 10:40

I really struggle to believe that these two men are allowed to practise medicine.

Did Dr Christian not see the models for how many would die if we'd let the virus 'run its course'? And he thinks that's a preferable outcome?

Lordfrontpaw · 18/04/2020 10:10

He doesn’t really know. Glad he’s not my doctor. That pair aren’t giving doctors a very good name are they?

triggsey · 18/04/2020 10:06

Adrian claiming trans women’s testosterone drops below women's?

Not only untrue, but in fact the lowest T levels in trans women never get anywhere near as low as the highest T levels found in women.

justanotherneighinparadise · 18/04/2020 09:43

Politicians have to think politically as well as taking the advice of doctors and scientists.

If we had just allowed the virus to run through us as Dr Christian suggested then yep, it would certainly have burnt out quickly, but we’d have also had bodies littering our streets and rioting/civil unrest and all the wonderful things that throws up, looting, arson etc.

SunsetBeetch · 18/04/2020 09:38

"Here's one doctor who believes we should have just ignored the virus, and another who believes the data that shows the virus kills at least twice as many biological men than women is insignificant t.co/4A45weepmy "

The NHS is - quite bloody rightly - finally being recognised as the absolute foundation stone of our society, and hopefully this crisis will mean that funding, investment in resources and pay for workers at all levels become a top priority for many governments to come. That's what all the NHS staff I've seen are taking the opportunity to push for while the attention of the media is on them.

Except this one. Harrop is using this crisis, and the gratitude of the public for the NHS, as a chance to shill for free treats for himself.

It reminds me of that moment in Titanic when Kate Winslet's slimy fiancé seizes a random child and uses her as his ticket into a lifeboat. Loathsome.

FlyingOink · 18/04/2020 02:15

He must be an HR nightmare. I wonder if they've considered getting rid but decided it's too much hassle?
Imagine the shitstorm that would be Haddock Vs his local NHS trust, represented by the flying liar.

Doesn't bear thinking about.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 18/04/2020 01:41

That sounds like an excellent idea kittens, I'm sure Adrian will be the first to agree.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 18/04/2020 01:40

^Speaking of smells...
^^From looking elsewhere he seems to have deleted a tweet he posted
suggesting brands like White Company and Jo Malone give luxury candles to NHS workers such as himself... Not the first thing I'd have thought to do in a global pandemic eh, but I guess that's the difference between me and Adey.^

He's lost any sense of self awareness. It's like the old days.

TheProdigalKittensReturn · 18/04/2020 00:56

How about we give the candles to the NHS staff working on the front lines rather than from home, so they can relax during the part of the day where they're not risking their lives? If Harrop was a nice person he might even buy one for those of his colleagues who're working much harder than he is

MoleSmokes · 18/04/2020 00:32

Ha ha ha!! Excellent, DocHolliday Grin

DocHolliday · 17/04/2020 23:49

He is working from home, safe and sound. Hardly front line and seriously at risk. is he?

Everyone else is asking for masks, gowns, hibiscrub, equipment etc.
But Dr. Dolittle is hustling for a free posh candle?

And it seems to me Ade lives his life
Like a candle in the wind
With only Big Steph to cling to
When the rain sets in

(Sorry Elton)

MoleSmokes · 17/04/2020 23:42

What an entitled little . . .

. . . there's other doctors risking their lives, sweating inside PPE,

. . . nurses risking their lives wearing sodding bin-bags because they can't get hold of PPE,

. . . care staff risking their lives and who can't get tested for Covid-19 because the Testing Centres are "drive-through" so you need a CAR to be able to use them

. . . people are dying, bereaved, have lost their jobs, businesses have gone bust

. . . and smug-bucket Harrop is cosy at home on his GP salary, emotionally blackmailing companies into giving him free fucking candles . . . or maybe "they hate the NHS?"

archive.is/NnYw2

Not a thought in his narcissistic, sociopathic little brain that people at Jo Malone or the White Company may have lost their lives or loved ones to this bloody plague. Just, "Give me free stuff, you peasants!"

Any time I think I cannot despise the little prick any more he outdoes himself!

titchy · 17/04/2020 23:37

Hmmmmmm, a white rose and lemon candle or adequate PPE...

Tricky one that.

Soontobe60 · 17/04/2020 23:33

In the same candle tweet he also says he's working from home. How does a GP work from home? I wouldn't like to think my GP would be able to access all my medical records anywhere but the surgery!

LizzyButton · 17/04/2020 23:30

Influencers, eh?

Datun · 17/04/2020 23:18

Is he really saying if you don't give me free, luxury stuff it means you hate the NHS?
