Before being sacked in 2021 I worked with 8 GP’s. All of them bed wetting cowards. I raised questions with all of them regarding ivermectin, the safety of the injections, why are we wearing masks, why are we not seeing patients etc etc. No one wanted to engage in conversation with me, the senior dr lied, I know that they knew but chose to sacrifice their patients for their own interests. I hate them all.

The medical profession faces a critical choice that will determine its future. Doctors must decide whether they are going to fight to regain their professional autonomy, or are happy to become agents of the state. If the latter, the public had better watch out. Because a doctor who puts the demands of the state before the medical needs of the patient is not only unethical but also dangerous. Doctors have been saying they could not risk the right to practice - earned after many long years of arduous and costly training - by defying government orders. They should ask themselves whether in reality they are in danger of losing something much more precious - their integrity and their good name.

My grandfather - an independent doctor of the old school, who practised from a surgery at the side of his house - would have been off to Canberra and knocking on the Prime Minister's door in a trice, had government bureaucrats started telling him how to advise or treat his patients. He would have been furious. It is interesting that, in the history of the medical profession, the registration of doctors by governments is a relatively recent development, dating in the UK from 1859 (a few years earlier, as it happened, in the Australian colonies). Registration gave the government the legal ability to prevent an unqualified doctor practising, but so long as the doctor was legally qualified he would be registered automatically.
