Arlene Foster suing Dr Christian

[MissyB1]

Apparently he tweeted that she was having an affair (without any proof), and the way he put it was a spiteful little jibe about her being a “sanctity of marriage preaching woman” adding “it always comes back to bite them on the arse”
Now I understand he might have an issue with her as I think she was against same sex marriage. But this man always strikes me as an arrogant twat and a nasty piece of work.

I tried to post the link but I’m such a technophobe! it’s on BBC news website

"Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) leader Arlene Foster is suing TV presenter Dr Christian Jessen for defamation, saying he made an "attack" on her marriage."

Oh thanks Rabbit well done.

I’m not her biggest fan but no one deserves that.

[ItsAllGoingToBeFine]

I very much hope she wins.

[MissyB1]

Honestly what is his problem?! And I certainly wouldn’t want to see a GP who behaves like this. Surely he’s bringing the profession into disrepute or something?

[RabbitOfCaerbannog]

I'm no fan of hers, but he does seem to struggle with women doesn't he.

[RabbitOfCaerbannog]

Ever the unprofessional

[tiktok]

He's a very unpleasant chap, who thinks he's God's gift to the world.

[MissyB1]

I’m surprised he gets away with it to be honest.

[AssassinatedBeauty]

Ignoring 13 separate approaches by letter and email to appear in court is pretty darn arrogant.

I will always remember his comments about breastfeeding past 6 months, and the literal disgust he showed for women who did that. He really doesn't like women.

[Thatwentbadly]

What is it with these doctors?

[nauticant]

Look at this:

There was no representation on behalf of Dr Jessen in court on Wednesday and the court was told 13 separate approaches by letter and email to Dr Jessen had gone "unanswered".

In the context of not having taking the opportunity to end the matter easily over the past year by issuing a grovelling apology that is astonishing.

[MissyB1]

Well I hope she sues the arse off him. I see he doesn’t work for the NHS, but even Doctors who only do private work have to adhere to professional standards surely? He’s an embarrassment to the profession.

[megletthesecond]

Don't like either of them. But yes, he hates women so fair play to her.

[Datun]

The journalist has made her allegiance fairly clear.

Mrs Foster is a member of the Northern Ireland Assembly for Fermanagh and South Tyrone and the first minister of Northern Ireland.

Dr Jessen is best known for presenting Channel Four programme Embarrassing Bodies.

[Campervan69]

He's vile. Seen him on twitter being really repulsive towards women. He really hates them for some reason.

@RabbitOfCaerbannog

I'm no fan of hers, but he does seem to struggle with women doesn't he.

Snap!

[Jamestheleast]

Presents 'Embarrassing Bodies':
Oh a genuinely sound chap then.
Searching for a new "Elephant Man" is he for a circus?

[Helleofabore]

I keep getting Jessen mixed up with the Dr van Tulleken twins.

[peak2021]

So what if anything has he said about the UK Prime Minister and his behaviour? Which is based on real evidence and testimony, such as that most recently from Jennifer Arcuri.

I expect nothing. It's rare I support anyone in the DUP but hope Arlene Foster wins.

[BoreOfWhabylon]

Misogynist arsehole. Hope he gets reported to the GMC as well as being sued.

[Erkrie]

Fair play to her. I hope she wins.

[Chocolatepeanuts]

@Datun I'm no Arlene fan but I'd say that quote is just factual! It was an awfull quote and the memes that arose from that rumour were appalling. I feel for her children have their mum talked about like that. I hope she wins!

[Chocolatepeanuts]

*an awful rumour

[Accentor]

God, he's a revolting misogynist. Come on Arlene!

[MissyB1]

Good point that he’s had nothing to say about Boris! Shows what a prat he is.
