Nurse Sues NHS Trust for Forcing ‘Racist’ Woke Ideology on Students in First Case of its Kind

by Will Jones
2 October 2022 7:00 AM

A nurse has claimed the NHS is “forcing racist ideology” on students through its promotion of Critical Race Theory as she brings legal action against an NHS trust in the first case of its kind. Amy Gallagher is suing the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust alleging discrimination on the basis of race, religion and philosophical belief, as well as victimisation and harassment. The Telegraph has more.

The mental health nurse, who is in the final stages of a two-year course in forensic psychology at the trust, objected to a lecture titled “whiteness – a problem of our time” in Oct 2020, where attendees were forced to confront “the reality of white privilege”.

In another race lecture the following month, Ms. Gallagher claimed she was told that “Christianity is racist because it is European” by a talk leader.

The case escalated in March this year when an external speaker at the trust complained to the Nursing and Midwifery Council, alleging that Ms. Gallagher could not work with “diverse populations” and had “inflicted race-based harm”.

Paul Jenkins, Chief Executive of the trust, told her that it “has committed itself to an explicit ambition of becoming an anti-racist organisation”.

Ms. Gallagher claims it is the first legal case for “lack of belief”, arguing that as a white Christian woman she cannot believe Critical Race Theory – an ideology that says racism remains institutional and rejects a colour-blind approach. 

“They are forcing Critical Race Theory onto people – you’re not allowed to disagree with it, or they will bully you for two years,” Ms. Gallagher told the Telegraph.

“I’m bringing this legal case to protect my career but it’s also the first test of woke ideology in the courts. The NHS is forcing someone to adopt a racist ideology and it needs to be stopped.”…

Amy has raised £21,000 so far via GoFundMe (risky) and is being supported by the Bad Law Project, the anti-woke group established by Laurence Fox and Harry Miller.

Dr. Anna Loutfi, Head of Legal at the Bad Law Project, said:

The ‘lack of belief’ draws attention to something that people are not talking about in the free speech world in the West, which I think is covered by the Equality Act under lack of belief, which is you have the right not to be forced to sign up a set of values or ideology with which you do not agree. It’s quite one thing to censor somebody for wanting to say things that people find objectionable or offensive, but it’s really another thing substantively to force somebody to articulate a view that they do not hold, as if they hold it. That is what has happened to Amy.

Frankly, if subjecting people to lectures that tell them their race is “a problem of our time” and their religion is “racist” because it comes from Europe (though it doesn’t of course) – and mistreating them when they complain – is not unlawful discrimination then our anti-discrimination law is not fit for purpose. If the Equality Act does not protect ‘white’ people from race-based harassment as much as anyone else then it is misnamed, dysfunctional and needs replacing. Double standards are not equality. Let’s hope the courts agree.

Worth reading in full.

Google – started by the CIA.
Farcebook – started by the CIA.
Oracle – its first and still biggest client – CIA.
etc ad nauseum.

CIA-DoD run the US and most of the world. The Rona tard scamdemic was a pilot project of theirs. The 2020 election fraud. Climate. The endless wars….

Snowden, Assange….truth tellers. Yet the sheeple hear not. 1 person in 10 might be clued in that the CIA-DoD is behind most of what is going on.

The US is the single biggest threat on the planet. You only have to watch the glee of US pilots bombing civilian lines during the Iraq ‘war’ (replace ‘war’ with US control of oil supplies) to understand the sickness that pervades that country. Watch them bang their hand to their chest when their national anthem is played and tell me they’re not the most brainwashed population on the planet. They’ve been sold a story. A story that’s been told since the beginning of their history – the US is the only really free country on earth. Tell your hostage’s the same story on repeat forever and they stop becoming hostage’s. They become willing accomplices in a cult.

Totally agree.
55 or more conflicts since 1945.
Rona scamdemic – the ultimate wet dream for fascists. CIA DoD project.
As was the stolen US election of 2020. No more than 130 million will vote in a US election (out of 160 mn). Drumpf won 80 mn (millions burnt etc). Pedo-criminal-half wit-money launderer CIA stooge Biden won max 50 million. I am guessing it is more likely 40 mn.

How do you get away from google and google chrome?Is there any way we can keep information away from these creatures? I believe the Google business original mantra was “Do no evil”, how very far they have strayed since then, they are a malignant parasite on humanity

I use duckduckgo as a search engine. It’s good for privacy and is generally censor-free (although it has engaged in censorship over the Ukraine/NATO/Russian war).

Don’t use Google products. It’s fairly easy to find alternatives.

DuckDuckGo, Brave, Safari, Firefox are alternatives to Chrome.

DuckDuckGo also has a search engine that can be used with any browser as an alternative to Google.

Curious that Wikipedia is not mentioned. A wiki search on DS makes an interesting reading, and even better on TY, where even his achievements are shown as negatives. I wonder if G & W are related.

I put Wikipedia’s extreme left wing bias down to the fact that lefties have nothing better to do than jump all over Wikipedia smearing people they disagree with, whereas those not on the left prefer to get on with their lives, working, spending time with their families and leaving other people the hell alone. Perhaps it’s just a fantasy of mine though.

It would be if there was a list of advertisers that use Uncommon Ad Space and a list of advertisers that boycott free speech platforms. I would use it to inform what companies I buy from.

Stop using google. Its simple. Brave/DuckDuckGo work perfectly fine. Google Intelligence governed. The alternates I mention, at least there’s a chance they are genuine and not controlled by the same evil.
