Trans Liaison Nurse and previous chair of Pride struck off nursing over ‘sexual’ examinations

[hollyblueivy]

I will try to link the article. This is a case of a minority of a minority doing the kind of thing that people may be weary of. The LGBT community are swimming against the tide and stories like this will only amplify the concerns already being expressed.

Struck off? I hope he has been locked up for a very long time!

A trans liaison staffer is realistically fucked over before they start

Having someone able to put some common sense safeguards into practice and set expectations keeps everyone safe

The NHS policy has placed individuals (patients and staff) who ID as trans outside the common sense safeguarding by demanding that every single individual involved must have a starting point of pretending that an individual is of the other sex.

The policy pushes coercive control down onto other patients and obliges staff to engage in systematic deception by knowingly telling lies.

Etc.

The question with this nurse and this Trust in this case is how did the Trust enable multiple witnessed assaults happen over a number of months

This Midwifery court case link above refers to a Steven Boyd. Ashley Boy's was posted on page 1 or 2

Nursing and Midwifery Council
Fitness to Practise Committee
Substantive Hearing

Name of Registrant: Mr Ashley Boyd https://share.google/txPCqlZ8bB3Vx7hQH

That's awful.
Yet despite this "The panel determined that Mr Boyd’s sexual misconduct, which targeted extremely vulnerable children, amounted to a gross dereliction of duty and abuse of trust. The panel noted that Mr Boyd’s conduct had potentially caused harm to the most vulnerable.." there are no criminal charges?

I sometimes wonder what criminals have to do nowadays, to end up behind bars, yet a casual tweet can have half a dozen police officers turning up at your property.

I think there are too many of these creeps to jail them all.

Holy fuck. How many more?

I've been very busy and tired but was just skimming through the NMC judgement, and find it extraordinary. There doesn't seem to be a single mention of safeguarding, or anything to suggest the panel think this is a crime that should be prosecuted, there's no mention of police involvement.

"Ms Ghotra also stated that Mr Boyd’s dishonest conduct was not spontaneous, but rather was continued dishonest conduct which took place over a prolonged period....She stated that one of the factors to be considered was the duration of Mr Boyd’s conduct and emphasised that this sexual misconduct occurred on multiple occasions between January 2023 and August 2023 and involved an imbalance of power.
Ms Ghotra submitted that Mr Boyd was in a position of trust and had abused that trust to target vulnerable children.
Ms Ghotra stated that, in terms of aggravating factors, the NMC identified five.
Firstly, she stated that Mr Boyd had abused his position of trust.
Secondly, she stated that Mr Boyd had demonstrated insufficient insight or understood the full
gravity of his misconduct and the potential ongoing impact on patients, the parents, and the wider profession.
Thirdly, Mr Boyd had provided limited evidence of appropriate remorse.
Fourthly, the misconduct occurred over a prolonged period.
Fifthly, his conduct put people receiving care at risk of harm."

They kept referring to “dishonest conduct” which I find quite bizarre. Dishonest conduct is stealing money from your patient, or completing care records for things you said you’d done but hadn’t. This is sexual abuse of vulnerable patients. Which should be prosecuted by the police as the crime it is. I understand the judgement has to be couched in appropriate legal language and they can’t just go shouting paedophile throughout it but “dishonest conduct” seems to be minimising the harm to the max.

I honestly think people have lost their minds over safeguarding - nobody seems to have appreciated that this man is a paedophile who was using his position to abuse children. The trust no doubt think they’re done and dusted, they reported him to the NMC and he’s been struck off. Job done. No lessons learned. 🙄

Although Swindon isn’t my area I realise that living in Wiltshire my own hospital is part of a partnership organisation between Salisbury, Swindon and Bath, with the same CEO covering all three. So I am going to write to my useless MP to ask questions of Wiltshire police. This man needs to be prosecuted.

The NMC has to use the language of 'dishonest conduct' because it regulates fitness to practice defined by adherence to "The Code" (Professional standards of practice and behaviour for nurses, midwives and nursing associates.)

Dishonest conduct and being struck off is the strongest sanction and language the NMC can use. They have to use dishonest conduct even when judgement found he was "sexually motivated and carried out for sexual gratification" because it's not a criminal court.

The NMC investigates individuals - so if there's a safeguarding failure either other individuals need to be referred to their regulators (for not doing more to prevent it happening again) or the hospital as whole via CQC.

So it's back to Wiltshire Police and what they're going to do next...

@ShamedBySiri thank you for writing to your MP - the hospital and the police need to scrutinised and held accountable for their decisions.

A casual tweet about how you think paedophilia is wrong - remember KJK got a police visit for being 'untoward about paedophiles'.

Also the grooming gangs and how victims were treated.

Hard not conclude that the criminals are in charge.

Why aren’t I surprised?

Very interesting point about the grooming gangs, given the fact that the majority of victims were children under the age of 13. In the Banbury and other cases, many of the perpetrators were charged with "sexual activity with a child" instead of "rape", which means they received substantially reduced sentences.

They were at Lambeth Council. This included murders to keep it under wraps.

Jesus Christ. I can't believe I didnt hear about that.

I hadn't heard about it either.

I ended up watching a documentary on C4 last week which talked about it as a side issue and I was stunned.

They closed the childrens homes because it was the only way they felt they could break up the ring.

I don't remember that either. Heart-breaking accounts. And one pervert in a chidlrens' home would be bad enough, but the sheer scale of it! Hundreds of perps, and hundreds of victims.

There doesn't seem to be a single mention of safeguarding…I honestly think people have lost their minds over safeguarding

I appreciate that the NMC doesn’t use that language of safeguarding but it is breathtaking how there has been so many safe guarding failures. And how #bekind has contributed to them.

There was a thread a while back on the Family Sex Show thing (fgs) who blamed their cancellation on "a small group of people with extremist views".

At the time, there was a very knowledgeable poster who opened up my eyes to the insidious tactics used by abusers to groom children.

I believe that poster was ultimately banned by MNHQ. Shameful.

Bloody hell.

For anyone to use - maybe include link to NMC doc

Dear [MP’s name],

I am writing as a constituent to express concern about how serious safeguarding issues in healthcare settings are handled and to ask for your scrutiny of the processes in place.

Healthcare regulators have issued formal findings in certain cases where professionals conducted intimate examinations without clinical justification, including involving children. In some instances, these breaches have been deemed serious enough to warrant removal from the professional register.

While I understand that decisions about criminal investigation and prosecution are independent of Parliament, there is a clear public interest in ensuring that cases with significant safeguarding implications are properly referred, reviewed, and, where appropriate, investigated. Transparency in these processes is vital to maintain public confidence.

I would appreciate it if you could:

• Request clarity from the relevant authorities on how serious safeguarding findings are escalated to law enforcement
• Establish whether formal reviews were undertaken when criminal thresholds were potentially met
• Explore whether there are gaps between regulatory actions and criminal oversight that may leave vulnerable patients at risk
• Consider raising the issue at the appropriate level to ensure accountability and systemic improvements

This is not a request to direct operational decisions. It is a request that you use your role to ensure oversight, transparency, and proper safeguarding practices in situations where professional discipline intersects with potential criminal matters.

Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your response.

Yours sincerely,

This - and why not?!
