An NHS nurse of 42 years faced losing her honorary Queen’s Nurse title after expressing gender-critical beliefs on X and at work. Karen Webb responded to a colleague’s remarks in a Zoom call, saying she supported the Olympic Committee’s decision to ban men from women’s sporting categories. Within minutes, the Head of Equality and Inclusion at Cambridge and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust messaged her to say her comments had “upset a lot of people”. The next day, the same individual called Karen, saying they needed to “have a chat” about her attitude towards trans people. Three months later, Karen was hauled into a meeting with senior staff and quizzed about her views on trans people and her ability to provide compassionate care. After believing the ordeal was over, Karen was then notified by the Queen’s Institute of Community Nursing (QICN) that a complaint had been made about alleged “transphobia” and “bigotry”, and that she must delete all gender-critical posts on X. Fearing further consequences, Karen contacted the Free Speech Union. We wrote to QICN on her behalf, setting out her legally protected right to hold and express gender-critical beliefs under the Equality Act 2010, and making clear she could not lawfully be discriminated against or harassed for doing so. QICN subsequently dropped the investigation and issued an apology. A Subject Access Request (SAR) also revealed the identity of the activist colleague who made the complaint. It showed they had disclosed information from Karen’s confidential internal investigation — which had already been closed with no disciplinary action. It is clear this was done to damage Karen’s professional reputation and jeopardise the recognition she had earned over many years of service.

@cedes0512 I blocked that arsehole some time ago. Quite the creep.

Not today Satan Take your harassment elsewhere.

@RightNUFC You are warming my old, jaded heart with this news Linzi! I'm absolutely made up for you both 🥰 💝

I am CRAZY in love with this woman. 😍

@ColinBest1978 Thoughts & prayers, etc! 😌😉

@mellowcarmello I suspect that,at some point,India has seen GC comments of mine on some kind of lengthy thread that he didn't like,and blocked me.I don't recall ever replying directly,certainly not recently.But,I'll just have to carry on with my life despite this devastating discovery🤣

Is X glitching or has @Indiawilloughby deactivated his account?

@ColinBest1978 I don't know what his system is but I've seen quite a few people say that - they've discovered accidentally that they're blocked & most have never interacted with him before.

@mellowcarmello Just found out I'm blocked by India.What a terrible shame.

@WWWheesht Fingers crossed! 🤞🏻

@mellowcarmello We've had lots of conversations with them, so we're as confident as we can be that it will be.

We absolutely love this photo of us! Delighted that they've got most of the details right. Thanks Tom.

@MavisM54295 @IndiaWilloughby Oh let's hope so. That sounds like a win/win situation, but I would miss his posts where he channels a sexist, 70s tabloids editor. They're my favourites.

@mellowcarmello @IndiaWilloughby He might have fallen in love with a Bratislavan person and realised how hollow and miserable his life on Twitter has become since the SC ruled that “women who happen to be trans” are just men.

I have to confess, I do find his rants quite funny & mildly entertaining for the most part although his spreading of dangerous misinformation, unchecked is a concern. I don't think any of us were expecting him to be absent for this long so it does suggest something karmic may have occurred. Hopefully nothing too serious though. Would never wish that on anyone not in full possession of their faculties.

@mellowcarmello @IndiaWilloughby Account still there for me, but he hasn’t posted since his latest plastic surgery. I do hope he survived it.

@carrijwood @IndiaWilloughby That's what I think too.

@mellowcarmello @IndiaWilloughby He's off to some erstwhile communist block country getting his hairline reinforced, I think.

Oh I'm already a member of that (not very) exclusive club. I think it happened when I tried to point out that prescribing PBs for precocious puberty, an endocrine disorder, is very different to prescribing for emotional turbulence in adolescence and it's not, in fact, "bigotry. His response was the block 😊

@mellowcarmello @IndiaWilloughby Maybe you've joined the hallowed majority 😇 we're not exactly a selective group - just anyone who points out truth or biological reality to him...

@Glinner @IndiaWilloughby Aye. I'm afraid I got some hopes up when I encountered a glitch that's now resolved. Oh well. We await the next rage-fuelled missive once he's recovered from whatever procedure he was/absolutely wasn't getting done. 😉

@mellowcarmello @IndiaWilloughby Still there for me unfortunately.

This is why we see so much online noise generated around detransitioners in order to drown out their testimony. It's so utterly heartbreaking & powerful that even the most staunch proponent must experience discomfort. We just got to witness it this time.

Definitely getting a washing dried outside today then! It's the little things 🌞 #BoringTweet #Gratitude

We’re telling you they are the bad guys, they’re telling you they are the bad guys. It’s not “both sides”. Trans activists are the bad guys.

@Stephen16498892 @VinnyBorden @IndiaWilloughby Just checked it again & it's back for me now. Must have just been a glitch. Oh well.

@mellowcarmello @VinnyBorden @IndiaWilloughby Looks as if he's maybe cleared his account .Software now available were you can delete all your past posts without deleting or closing your account or losing your followers.

@RNGem1 @Mazclin Maybeee! I've actually just checked one of the outage sites & apparently it's just a boring old glitch being reported by a few people. 🙃

@mellowcarmello @Mazclin Maybe it’s glitching when you change sex?

Oh dear 😬
