NHS FRAUD CAUGHT ON CAMERA, NOBODY CARED
Sharmila Chowdhury @sharmilaxx gave the @NHS 30 years of clean service. Not one blemish. Then she did something apparently unforgivable. She noticed two consultant radiologists at Ealing Hospital, now part of London North West University Healthcare NHS Trust @LNWH_NHS, were billing the NHS for shifts they were actually spending at a private hospital down the road.
Getting paid twice for the same hours. That is fraud everywhere except, it turns out, inside the NHS complaints system.
She reported it. To her line manager. To the Medical Director. To the HR Director. To Counter Fraud. To the Chief Executive. To Number 10. To the Treasury. She built a paper trail so thorough that ITV @itvnews later sent an undercover team into the hospital and filmed the same consultants years on, still taking cash from patients for private ultrasounds inside NHS premises.
The Trust's response to all that diligence was to sack her, based on counter allegations later shown to be fabricated.
The man behind those allegations reportedly signed off an email too crude to print here ..........
....... He picked up a Top Mentor award from the Trust that same year. You could not write comedy this good on purpose.
Sharmila took it to tribunal and won. She won her appeal too. The judge told the Trust to reinstate her. The Trust said no. She was then quietly blacklisted across the NHS. One job offer was withdrawn the moment they worked out who she was. Legal costs hit £130,000.
Somewhere in the middle of it she developed breast and lung cancer, which her doctors link to years of sustained stress.
The two consultants kept their jobs. George Osborne could not get involved. Andrew Lansley could not get involved. David Cameron could not get involved. Every one of them filed it under employment matter, which is Whitehall for we would rather not know.
A proven fraud case, covered by ITV @itvnews, the Guardian, Daily Mail @DailyMail, Channel 4 News @Channel4News, the Independent @Independent, BBC News @BBCNews, the Times @thetimes and the Daily Mirror @DailyMirror. The official position of Her Majesty's Government was still not our problem.
This is the reward system in action. Report fraud, lose your career, lose your health, and watch the people you reported get promoted.
@0fukstogive@TRobinsonNewEra@WMPolice I was replying to the idea that effectiveness as a police officer in combative situations depends on height,it doesn’t,it depends on levels of fitness,strength and training.

🇬🇧 Aldi Supermarkets don’t sell Halal meat.
We don’t sell any certified Halal meat and our policy is that all animals used in the production of Aldi’s own label meat and poultry must be pre-stunned before slaughter.
🇬🇧 Well done Aldi 👍🏻 I like Aldi 👍🏻
@rexs_ma Psychological testing is required to qualify for many jobs,maybe it needs to become part of the adoption process because I’m sure this thing wouldn’t have passed.
