It's in The Times. With this and Wi Spa I feel like the house of cards is falling...

Gender identity clinic whistleblower wins damages for ‘vilification’

That's brilliant news

Excellent news!

Excellent news.

Really glad for Sonia Appelby, it can't have been easy to have her reputation smeared in this way, she comes across as a woman of deep integrity.

I hope the review into GIDS is taking note!

This is great news. It’s an absolute fundamental that whistleblowers should never be subject to detriment because of it. Well done Sonia!

Fantastic.o

Fantastic!

I'm a relentless pessimist but this is good news for Sonia Appleby. I hope that these findings point the way to some sense of sanity with respect to GIDS.

That’s great. Thank you for the share token.

So pleased to hear this! It must have been really difficult for her to be put in such a position. I hope this vindication will give her some small measure of comfort.

Excellent news, well done Sonia!

Woo! Go Sonia, go!

Surely this is a bad look for the Tavistock, firstly that she had to whistleblow about safeguarding failures, and secondly that they tried to hide this by sidelining her...

Glad to read this. Well done Sonia Appleby!

Such fantastic news!

I’m disappointed that in The Times article, Polly Carmichael is not mentioned, I wonder if she is in the ruling? Her evidence to the tribunal was quite bizarre.

Well done Sonia although what an awful and stressful time she has had.

How any parents can send their children to the Tavistock now I don't know. Any organisation that works with children should prioritise safeguarding. If it doesn't, quite simply, it can't keep children safe.

Great news but the damages seem very low considering what Sonia has been through.

This seems to be the ruling www.gov.uk/employment-tribunal-decisions/mrs-s-appleby-v-the-tavistock-and-portman-nhs-foundation-trust-2204772-2019

Great news. Well done to Sonia. Whistle blowing is very brave.

Great news. I hope this leads to substantial changes in GIDS. Well done Sonia

Wonderful news

No, it's not . Don't think it's up yet.

Great news. We'll done to Sonia for seeing this through. It cannot have been easy.

Bloody brilliant.

Well done, Sonia.

Hurrah!

Well deserved
