Moral Clarity Prevails: RCPCH Members Successfully Pass Motion to Re-define Global Child Health Advocacy ✊
We welcome the passing of the member-submitted motion on re-defining advocacy in global child health.
The Palestinian case cannot be treated as just another “complex” crisis as it is shaped by Western-backed, and significantly UK-enabled, history of illegal occupation, apartheid, ethnic cleansing and now genocide.
🚨HAC is taking the GMC & Government to the High Court🚨
It’s time to go on the OFFENCE.
Doctors like Prof Ghassan Abu-Sittah (@GhassanAbuSitt1 ), Dr Rehiana Ali (@Rehiana1980 ), Dr Ellen (@EllenKriesels ), Dr Rahmeh (@doctor_rahmeh ) & many others are being persecuted for lawful speech - not patient harm.

🕊️ Solidarity matters 🕊️
Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya has been one of the most prominent voices of Gaza’s decimated healthcare sector and today marks his 500th day in arbitrary detentions.
We stand together in solidarity with Dr. Abu Safiya and all Palestinian health workers who continue to endure the horrors of genocide and Israel’s targeting of health workers.
#FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya
This week we held a meeting with the RCGP chair and other representatives of the college. We would like to thank everyone who signed the petition and supported the previous letters to the RCGP.

Despite being thoroughly discredited, the genocide-shielding group UK Lawyers for Israel still managed to persuade the General Medical Council to pursue a lawfare-style antisemitism complaint against Dr Ghassan Abu-Sittah.
The surgeon has incensed Israel's apologists by testifying to the International Criminal Court about Israeli war crimes he witnessed in Gaza.
The Medical Practitioners Tribunal threw the case out last year and exonerated Dr Abu-Sittah.
Now the GMC has announced it will appeal the decision to the high court, forcing him to raise £150,000 to defend himself once again.
It's hardly surprising that UKLFI wishes to persecute and impoverish Dr Abu-Sittah for being an upstanding human being.
But it is off-the-charts outrageous that a professional regulatory body like the GMC is colluding in this campaign of harassment on behalf of Israel.

Where happened to the call "all hostages must return home"? Why is Israel - who has no legal authority in Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem according to the highest world's court - continues to hold captive thousands of Palestinians, mostly without even charge or trial?
Dr Abu Sittah has stated that UK Lawyers for Israel has exerted undue influence over the UK’s General Medical Council.
The GMC has informed his legal team that it intends to appeal to the High Court against decisions by two independent tribunals that dismissed misconduct charges
The General Medical Council has just informed my lawyers that they intend to appeal to the High Court against the decision of the Medical Practitioners Tribunal to clear me of misconduct charges that it had brought.
Under its current leadership, the GMC has been weaponised as a tool of political repression in the service of Israel’s genocidal project.
This will be the third legal action the GMC has brought against me, and I’m quite certain it is the result of political pressure from this Labour Government.
