@ArturNadol7566 @WB_UK The way Halford-Hall speaks to and about whistleblowers is absolutely shocking

[Whistleblower INC @WBINC_Doc]

A WBUK insider told us Georgina Halford-Hall was "interested in cases that would be high profile or end up giving WhistleblowersUK lots of money"

Since the release of Whistleblower Inc, more people have come forward to say they were never contacted back by WBUK, or were asked for a percentage of any settlement in return for support.

NHS OFFERED A MAN £41,000 TO FORGET 90 PEOPLE DIED

Paul Calvert was a former police officer working as a coroner's officer for North East Ambulance Service. His job was to prepare reports on patient deaths for coroner inquests.

What he found instead was a systematic cover-up. Paramedic errors linked to more than 90 patient deaths. Evidence withheld from coroners. Families lied to. Bereaved people who never got the truth about how their loved ones died.

He went to The Sunday Times in May 2022. The story exploded. @BBCNewsnight, @BBCNews at Six, BBC Sounds. The country watched. NEAS panicked.

Their response?

A £41,000 offer, on the condition he stayed silent and handed over his evidence.

He called it a "bribe to shut up and go away." He refused to take it. He also refused to sign a non-disclosure agreement.

MP Grahame Morris @grahamemorris raised his case in the Commons and described it as: bullying, harassment, blackmail.

After that Calvert was signed off sick for 17 months with depression and anxiety. Then sacked in December 2022 for what NEAS called an "irretrievable breakdown of trust."

The man who wouldn't accept a bribe to cover up 90 deaths was fired for failing to return to work at the organisation that tried to bribe him.

Makes perfect sense, when you think about it from the perspective of an institution trying to save its own skin.

The Information Commissioner's Office @ICOnews later had to force NEAS to publish a suppressed internal report it had been sitting on since 2020.

The Trust's medical director and safety director both resigned. Health Secretary Sajid Javid announced a new independent review.

Calvert described it as "empty rhetoric" and demanded a full public inquiry with compelled evidence.

He never got one. The review that did eventually take place, led in 2023 by NHS insider Marianne Griffiths, was so limited in scope that Calvert refused to participate on principle. It spoke to four families.

Four, out of ninety-plus deaths.

This is what institutional accountability looks like in the NHS. Not justice. Not transparency. A suppressed report, a bribery attempt, a sacking, and a review designed to speak to the minimum number of people necessary to call it a review.

Paul Calvert lost his career for doing his job correctly. The people who tried to buy his silence have moved on.

If your to lie about being a victim
Something no whistleblower should do
No whistleblower org should commend
What else are you prepared to lie about?

[Unlock Care Homes @CareUnlock]

@WB_UK You are beyond the pale. Not only do you lie about not having been given right to reply, which you were, but you also lie about your unwavering support for whistleblowers. You can no longer hide the truth from the public. We know your game, and your game is up. Stop the lies.

[ajitchambers @ajitchambe67372]

@ArturNadol7566 I am in shock after Georgina Hallford Hall asked me to help fund WBUK, the discovering all these things that are suggesting she is trying to make money out of whistleblowers AND working within Parliament? @tessamunt I have asked Tessa to investigate AND.. Parliament.

[Artur Nadolny @ArturNadol7566]

Georgina Halford Hall was contacted on 14 April and again on 16 April with a full right of reply and 10 days to respond followed up offering an extension. No response.

Jo Gideon was contacted separately on 8 May. The deadline to respond was 6pm on 11 May. No response.

WBUK chose not to engage. Then claimed they were never asked. The emails are now public. Readers can judge for themselves.

@KateCox59582715 We are so sorry to hear your grandma was a victim of this heinous, anti-human experiment.
Those who witnessed the horrors will never have closure. How could they? The evil perpetrated was traumatising and unprecedented.

[Shaun Lintern @ShaunLintern]

Legal aid reforms in #KingsSpeech will increase the number of legally aided inquests from 400 to 11,400 a year. Costing £185 million.

Finally ending the inequality of arms where NHS Trusts turn up with a phalanx of lawyers against still grieving families often alone and confused

[Nikki da Costa @nmdacosta]

More in Common finds only 29% of Britons want the same Assisted Dying bill "introduced as soon as possible, in the same form". And just 41% of supporters.

Dignity in Dying and hardcore MPs talking about bringing it back are out of line with public opinion.

[Lorraine Norton @LorraineNorton]

The delay on this is appalling. I feel so sorry the family still have no peace of mind on this. Why is it taking so long? Why so many delays? This doesn’t feel like any type of Justice to me. May truth prevail.

Our founder @Amanda_M_hunter & co-founder of @EolWatch on why we need to listen to disability activist @GeorgeFielding1 on how adult social care needs to change, and why we believe there needs to be a revolution in the way care is funded, delivered, managed, peopled & regulated

[Families Against Involuntary Medical Euthanasia @EoLWatch]

George is a voice to be listened to. He brings a wealth of experience, knowledge and insight to discussions on adult social care - from the crisis in funding, recruitment, retention, and capacity, to the unsustainable burden currently being placed on unpaid family carers, many of whom have been forced to give up work and go on benefits to fill the burgeoning gaps in social care provision.

The adult care sector is failing to meet existing need, and is wholly unprepared for the task of meeting future demand. The current model of private provision is unsustainable. It is impoverishing families, bankrupting local authorities, and monumentally failing to provide safe and dignified care to those in need.

We need a radical rethink about how social care is funded, organized, delivered, regulated and peopled, with new models of care fit for 21st century need.

@CareUnlock @Amanda_M_Hunter @CompassnInCare

[ADASS @1adass]

@GeorgeFielding1 shared his experience of both drawing on care & running companies that provide care for others. He said we need to work better across society to care about all people, including carers. #SpringSeminar26

@LadyWolvo @Caroz1984 @Karen_karenelee They shouldn't withdraw it unless he's become dysphagic.

[Unlock Care Homes @CareUnlock]

@LadyWolvo @Caroz1984 @Karen_karenelee This is against NG31 guidance. It's what NHS trusts regularly do, but fluids should not be withdrawn except in exceptional cases. Please seek advice. Happy to help.

[Karen @Lesley5856]

@Karen_karenelee With you 💯. So sorry about your daughter. As a nurse, and experiencing what you have had to go through, you more than any of these heartless attention seekers, know what you are talking about. Investing in palliative care should be a priority.

[Karen Lee @Karen_karenelee]

My daughter had pain too, that’s why I say palliative care must be improved in respect of managing pain as well as better social support. From a former nurses’s perspective I don’t think this Bill had enough safeguards to ensure sick & vulnerable people were not driven to suicide

[Karen Lee @Karen_karenelee]

..I’d just add to this post a word of thanks to those who made a sensible comment to what is an emotive debate. Different people have different opinions. Mine is based on watching my daughter die, I simply feel if palliative care were better we wouldn’t feel suicide is the answer

[Karen Lee @Karen_karenelee]

I am utterly fed-up of seeing comments about the failure of the assisted suicide Bill. As a nurse of 20+ years & a Mum whose daughter died of cancer I opposed it & would fight it with every breath in my body should it ever reappear. Focus instead on improving Palliative care.
