Harrop MPTS Hearing

Sorry: I meant even if he'd done it all anonymously on Twitter it would have been arguable that he'd crossed the line.

But he gave his full name, his profession, and let it all hang out.

It would have been arguable that he crossed the line with the intimidation and 'delete all your tweets and profile or I'll continue doxxing you' thing - particularly since CPS have gladly pulled women into police stations and court rooms for far less than that.

But to do it all in your own name, with your job clearly identified? Work places have codes of conduct. Professions in particular have a code of conduct, I haven't yet met one that is not clear about expected behaviour including online, not bringing the profession into disrepute, and this is way, way past the point that most people could have expected to have been sacked. One incident alone would have ended it for many.

It’s always really difficult to predict the outcome of MPTS cases that don’t involve direct harm to patients. Yes, doctors are not supposed to bring the profession into disrepute, but this is inconsistently interpreted.

I would be (pleasantly) surprised to see him suspended from the GMC register, given that none of the alleged offences involved his patients. Hope I’m wrong, though.

I reallly hope Posie is there. Right up the front. He would be guaranteed to lose his shit.

Seeing those coppers all dickied up in their Pride gear exposes just how deeply Stonewall has penetrated public bodies. It's chilling.

A dictionary definition on a billboard makes men feel unsafe.

This quote encapsulates so much. I love Posie

My favourite is:

I am appropriating the word woman, can you hear yourself?

My money's on a "now now" and a finger wag.

I'd like to hear the Police's justification for NOT charging him.

Probably just too busy harrassing women for knowing biological sex is real.

I'd like to hear the Police's justification for NOT charging him.

This quote encapsulates so much. I love Posie!

I hope he's struck off. It's the only tolerable outcome, surely.

Looks like they have quite sensibly restricted the charges to particularly egregious tweets involving targeted harassment (possibly at a criminal level) of certain individuals who are able to be witnesses. The multitude of other offensive tweets could be argued to be just twitter bantz and finding them offensive just a subjective judgement. Much better to stick with hard evidence of harassment and intimidation.

Though I think in one of the instances the place of work mentioned was also a place of worship and at the time I felt concern for the safety and well-being of individuals in the congregation, not to mention the lack of respect that could amount to religious discrimination. I hope that is pointed out.

If anyone knows who the committee chair is then I would be interested, please.

I hope that this tribunal sends the message to other women hating men that they cannot get away with this kind of intimidation

I would sincerely hope that after the Tribunal is concluded, and the witnesses have given their evidence and AH his defence and mitigation, that the Police take another hard look at this and the intimidation element(s).

The Tribunal proceedings, laying out all the evidence and the effects of AH's actions on the witnesses, might focus minds, at the IOPC if not Merseyside Police.

I've got Mrmenno singing The Adrian Harrop song in my head

I think one of the (many) things he is going to have serious difficulty explaining away is not just the actual meat of the charges but the sheer and sustained vindictiveness, the gleeful malevolence displayed as he escalates through his petulant narcissistic rampage..

It's been an extraordinary thing to watch over these last couple of years. His lack of impulse control has been alarming.

But at least he felt able 'to bring his whole self to work' eh?

I complained to the GMC about the 'T**f exterminator' tweets and they told me they were aware this doctor. I've never met AH but, like StellaAndCrow, his behaviour has caused me concern about dealings with male doctors. Not good.

I do think his only possible defence would be some sort of escalating mental health issue.

Do the proceedings include the tweet in which Harrop said that the activities of a gender critical woman needed to be stopped "by whatever means necessary"?

It's interesting he's not been charged by the Police when you see the charges listed in black and white like that isn't it?
Why not?
So many individuals had a knock on the door for much less.
It's certainly a lesson in what social media can do to a person. Watching the escalation on twitter was an education.
