I've seen the light that 'NHS Antisemitism account' can not be taken seriously as the voice within NHS. The mindset of this individual is worrisome. Be aware. Asked many times to leave me alone- instead the usual tweet out to the followers & they come to mentions.

Yet we have black and brown practitioners referred to NMC and struck off at click of finger whilst Lucy Letby was able to do what she did. You all can’t convince me that her whiteness played a role
Consultants repeatedly tried force Countess of Chester Hospital management to investigate Nurse Lucy Letby and her link to the possible murder of babies.
The doctors were ignored
Letby was eventually moved to a clerical role. It took another year before police were involved

Racism works that way. Why white staff are more likely to be appointed into senior roles. Even lighter skinned ethnic groups. Nepotism in NHS. One need not do a talk about it. Staff don’t need to be gaslight they just see it happening. Data from multiple sources confirm this
