The 10 year long cover up in the @drcmday whistleblowing case explained:
Then what you can do about it here

28 Jan 2025
My name is Dr Chris Day. I have been fighting an NHS whistleblowing case for the last 10 years and the case is still showing no signs of being over.
The London South Employment Tribunal have allowed the NHS to turn what should have been a straightforward whistleblowing case, lodged by a doctor in 2015 into a circus that is still ongoing in 2025.
These antics have cost the taxpayer over a million pounds and prevented serious patient safety issues being dealt with and has also damaged other doctors' legal whistleblowing protection.
The way this case has been handled has not been done in private, large numbers of NHS staff and patients have read the papers and attended my hearings
At the Royal Society of Medicine, I attempted in 15 minutes to explain my 10 year jungle of a whistleblowing case which you can see clip of on the below video (full talk here). The video starts with me explaining the patient safety issues and avoidable deaths that started all this in 2014. It ends with the crazy position we have ended up at..

Let’s face it: there are a few things they don’t teach you at medical school.
One of them is what to do when the NHS decides you are the problem in a whistleblowing case.
I have spent the last twelve years learning this lesson and have had some interesting tutors.
I was a resident doctor in a South London Intensive Care Unit when I raised concerns about night-time staffing levels. The sort of concerns that make NHS executives stop smiling mid-sentence. The sort of concerns that later get described as “serious” once enough time has passed and enough lawyers have been paid.
Eventually, after six years, several courts, and a small forest’s worth of paper, those concerns were accepted as protected disclosures. They were linked to two avoidable deaths which, at the time, were quietly removed from formal investigations. That part is now officially undisputed.
What is disputed is what happened next.

Very pleased to have been elected to BMA Council.
On my list of things to do;
Making sure this doesn't happen again to another doctor standing up for patient safety or NHS services.
Mar 10
I have some news;
I am running for the British Medical Association Council. If you are a BMA member please vote for me;
"I am standing for BMA Council because doctors need representatives who understand how power operates in the NHS - and how decisions made at the top land in reality. I work in A&E, where political and workforce failures translate directly into risk and harm for patients and staff. I do not just understand doctors’ anger about pay, morale and conditions, I live it.
Alongside my clinical work, I have spent twelve years pursuing a fiercely contested whistleblowing case and supporting doctors in similar situations. I have seen how employers, regulators and lawyers can combine to silence doctors who speak truth to power or scapegoat those who remain silent. Doctors carry responsibility for patients, yet too often lack power and protection. I have worked closely with the BMA on my own case and have seen it increasingly win these fights for others. These successes matter. They protect patients, defend doctors, and change culture."

This is the official @AneurinBevanUHB policy for training Physician Associates to perform invasive procedures, such as lumbar punctures & central lines.
"The number of DOPS required will be agreed by the consultant body dependent on the procedure and competency of the PA"

Exclusive on physician associate scandal
Whistleblowers claim the investigation into a PA's botched lumbar puncture at Royal Gwent hospital was marked as "closed" two months ago
It's alleged that a meaningful probe only began after we revealed the patient's traumatic experience

This is another scandalous and criminal situation concerning a trust of @NHSEngland spending a £million to battle a doctor who exposed dangerous malpractices.
The criminals in this case are the board members of Lewisham & Greenwich NHS Trust @LG_NHS

The NHS Has Been Hijacked: The Shocking Plan to Replace Your Doctor
In this clip, @DerbyChrisW and @drbobgill deep dives into the ongoing transformation privatisation of our NHS. The discussion reveals a troubling agenda: moving away from the traditional continuity of care with a named GP or consultant toward a system where the workforce is interchangeable.
They explore how privatisation and the push for "doctor substitution" are devaluing the human element in medicine. Is the electronic record really a replacement for a doctor who knows you? And what is the real goal behind championing AI in healthcare?
Watch the whole broadcast to understand where the NHS is heading and why it matters for all of us!

The doctor substitution agenda has been a policy directive since at least 2014 with Simon Steven's Five Year Forward View plan.
Today we have started a review of postgraduate medical training led by @NHSEnglandNMD and @CMO_England

I get it — no organisation wants to be called institutionally corrupt.
Courts least of all.
But here’s the problem:
If you can’t point to a single factual error in my letter to the EAT President…
And you can’t explain what’s wrong with the definition of institutional corruption used by the Daniel Morgan Inquiry…
Then what exactly is your criticism?
The Inquiry was clear:
Concealing or denying failings to protect an organisation’s reputation is itself institutional corruption.
So if the response is not to engage with the facts — but to smear the person raising them —
you rather prove the point.
For what it’s worth, that’s exactly what happened in court:
Hill Dickinson’s barrister tried it… and the Judge shut it down immediately but that has not always been my experience of Judges.
Here’s the letter:

Following my @Channel4News appearance. I've lost count of how many times people ask this;
How can a Judge in a UK court ignore 90,000 emails being deleted during a court hearing and the deletion of an entire NHS email account by someone else?
This would be taking the mick in any case but an NHS whistleblowing case involving a London Intensive Care Unit!!
This is the tip of the iceberg as I explain in my article;

A doctor’s appeal alleging judicial bias was due to be heard at the Employment Appeal Tribunal.
Instead, the system delayed the appeal for several years.
Eventually, the bias appeal point was conceded. Yes — conceded.
The BBC has now reported on the extraordinary efforts made to shield the judge from serious and credible complaints raised from multiple sources.
What should trouble anyone who cares about the integrity of the justice system is not just the allegation itself, but the institutional resistance to addressing it.
When concerns about judicial conduct arise, the system should confront them quickly and transparently. Instead, what we see here is a process that appears to have bent over backwards to avoid doing so.
Would the EAT have really allowed this appeal had it not been conceded by the doctor's opponent including the fact that the doctor did not have a fair trial?
The public deserves better.
This BBC investigation sets out the story in detail:

How many GPs would have the courage to walk into a Board meeting at their local NHS Trust and challenge them on patient safety, avoidable deaths, cover up and destroying evidence?

Please consider voting for Dr Day.
It is not often that one finds someone with the tenacity to wade through the labyrinthine complexities of the legal system with the courage that he has demonstrated over the past 12 years. He would be a very worthy Council member
