Dr Adrian Harrop - Dr Misogyny is pursuing another woman.

Dr Adrian Harrop now has Dawn Furness in his metaphorical gun sights. He has sent a series of Tweets to The Green Party to point them to the fact she is appearing at a Woman's Place meeting soon and that she must state her position on trans rights. This is a deliberate attempt to capitalise on his success in getting Olivia Palmer suspended.

It is an act dripping in pure hatred of women.

Anyone else would surely keep their head down a bit after yesterday's performance. This is narcissism in all its florid glory.

And not convinced by his staunch supporter, an admitted sock puppet, who is a "woman" willing to defend his every action.

Alicethroughtheblackmirror · 31/07/2018 11:51

How does he justify criticising breast feeding guidelines?

Is this on some spurious medical grounds (because he's clever than all other doctors ever) or because it might be triggering?

OvaHere · 31/07/2018 11:54

He's probably posted that Amazon link knowing that the flying monkeys will head over there and brigade it with bad reviews.

Ereshkigal · 31/07/2018 11:55

Exactly this.

Ereshkigal · 31/07/2018 11:56

As Ova says I suspect that was his motive. He doesn't explicitly offer any criticism but as people point out he's dismissively sarcastic about the book.

"He's not played his hand well though."

He should have waited until he got his GP registration before going postal on Twitter. May have peaked too early. Rookie error.

Then he could have done whole moneygrabbing disguised as victimhood press conference.

"With a heavy heart I am leaving the NHS due transphobia endemic within the institution. The NHS is institutionally transphobic. I will, however, never abandon transgender people and I will defend them with every fibre of my being".

"That's why I have set up a private practice in which it would be my honour to serve this marginalised group. Call 1-800-TRANS or visit www.harroptrans4kids.co.uk. Special introductory offer BOGOF on Lupron throughout January. Ask about our family discounts for siblings."

Note the TRA in the tweet thread making infantile "bitty" jokes in a way rather reminiscent of men.

Hi All, I'm new to this thread but am very concerned with the collective harassment of Dr Adrian Harrop. So much so that I phoned the GMC to ask if they were aware of this current hate campaign and how distressing it is to see. I have autism and struggle to converse verbally at the best of times but seeing the state of twitter at the moment encouraged me to do something positive.
I've also been in touch with the police regarding to very concerning tweets that I have received from people in this clique.
One did make me giggle though in calling me 'Adrian Harrop' which I am not.
I'm a 40 plus woman that is gay. Yes, Gay and proud.
I'll leave you to your little covern and wish you well in your endeavours.
Humanity and respect for others is another trait that I gained with my ASD x

Ereshkigal · 31/07/2018 12:09

Yes his harassment of women as a collective is deeply concerning, I quite agree. Go well.

Sarahconnor1 · 31/07/2018 12:10

Legalities

Thanks muchly for the contribution.

EntropicTupperwareDrawer · 31/07/2018 12:11

What are you on about, legalities? Confused

NameChangedAgain18 · 31/07/2018 12:12

I'm a 40 plus woman that is gay.

Sure you are, dear. After all, it's always women that use the word "covern" [sic], isn't it?

MrGHardy · 31/07/2018 12:14

Funny that he hasn't blocked me, though he doesn't engage either.

He is mentally unstable. After lashing out, he called out Pierce Morgan for "angrily lashing out". He is seriously unhinged. I mean for sure there will be doctors who actually agree with him ideologically or because they too want to score woke points or because they too hate women. But I don't see many of them raging and abusing and harassing and threatening women even anywhere near his level. The GMC has to act, he is not fit to be a doctor.

Evil venomous little maggot!

I note one of his groupies suggests he's "better than this". I think we have ample evidence that he isn't.

Well done Legalities

EntropicTupperwareDrawer · 31/07/2018 12:18

Who is tish?

I’m not on twitter. MN and twitter aren’t interchangeable you know, legalities?

What is it you want to happen here?

LizzieSiddal · 31/07/2018 12:20

Thanks Legalities for alerting the GMC to Harrop.

The more times his name comes up, the more chance there is of an investigation and the GMC will be utterly shocked at his bullying misogyny.
Didn't he admit yesterday on Twitter, that he couldn't control himself so just had to dox and threaten a woman? Who would want a person like that working as a Dr?

Popchyk · 31/07/2018 12:22

Thanks Legals.

Are you sure Adrian appreciates you contacting the GMC and making them aware of his behaviour? If he is deleting tweets then maybe he didn't want anybody drawing attention to it?

But you know him best. And thanks for making them aware.

Very important thing you did there, I'm sure we can all agree.

Alicethroughtheblackmirror · 31/07/2018 12:23

Argh, that was supposed to be:

Well done, legalities, you have utterly confuddled me...

Legalities · 31/07/2018 12:23

You could always phone the GMC who I have been advised have prepared a statement for all the gender deniers.
I'm to understand that this little 'Covern' had already been bought to their attention and that his twitter activities have absolutely nothing to do with his fitness to practice.
I presume that you are all okay with LGBTQ advocates and anti-bullying campaigners?
As previously stated, I wish you all well in your collective endeavours x

Alicethroughtheblackmirror · 31/07/2018 12:28

You know women used to work for Matthew Hopkins to prick other women he'd decided were witches.

Of course they had the excuse of desperation, fear or stupidity.

Not sure why I thought of that...

Popchyk · 31/07/2018 12:29

Oh can't wait for the statement. Smile

"The General Medical Council utterly condemns gender denier coverns on both Twitter and Mumsnet".

End of statement.

LizzieSiddal · 31/07/2018 12:30

his twitter activities have absolutely nothing to do with his fitness to practice.

Bless, you really are misinformed.

hackmum · 31/07/2018 12:31

I think anyone accusing women of being witches (which isn't a tired old misogynistic trope at all, oh no) should at least learn how to spell "coven".
