Tribunaltweets are reporting from a social worker's fitness to practice tribunal. They are not naming the social worker - just initials RM. I believe the case has been discussed here before but as they are not naming I won't find old threads.

Social Work England found against her for criticising mermaids and putting other gender critical posts on her Facebook. There were no complaints about her actual work. She is now having a fitness to practice hearing but SWE, a few days before the hearing, decided not to defend their decisions. It sounds like they are applying to withdraw allegations.
SWE's barrister is Robin White.

Thank you for new link.

If SWE have withdrawn the allegations, why is there a hearing? (IANAL so apologies if there is an obvious answer to this). Good luck RM and SP.

Glad the allegations are withdrawn. Disgusting that this woman has been dragged through this. But presumably the issues will not be discussed so no one will be any the wiser. So glad I no longer have to work in this profession.
