Looking Down on the rest of the mortals I have been advised by the good Dr Wayne that I should not be so mean to Dr Skinner. As Dr Skinner will understand, his persona can be very annoying to someone as action packed as me. The prawn effect was probably pent up frustration and being read out his witterings for more than a year. Then I suspect, none of us are perfect so perhaps I ought to apologise for any defamation caused to the King Prawn population. I hope Skinner does not take any of this personally as it isn't meant to be. He should understand that I never talk behind people's backs, I tend to just write it all down :). It is a kind of dishinhibited writing style of thoughts and ideas in real time. In any case, I always think it is much better to be transparent.
This website and these ideas are simply my scribblings on the medical profession. It is filled with my quirky sense of humour, my eccentricities, my ideas, my likes and dislikes. It is in effect "personal writing", just that I write away after midnight on a blog as opposed to a diary.
Secondly, in relation to Dr Peter Gooderham - my criticisms are in no way a reflection of the kind of man he is. Dr Wayne likes him, he supported Dr Scot Jnr. I suspect we all owe him but I don't have to like him. In fact, I don't know him to make a valid judgment of whether I like him or dislike him. Everything here is simply my view and I may even be wrong about him.
Peter has never in his entire life been supportive of the General Medical Council case I won on strike out application. Perhaps it is that tinge of discontent that the leading case in 150 years on Libel against the GMC is sidelined by those who theorise. Then he does work at a law school who told me it could never be done :)! I am not a theorist but I still opened the law books and wrote the case. Its not difficult. Many simply have to accept I know more about Jennifer Colman and Peter Gooderam than the average bear. I also think it is admirable that he supported her so much. Jennifer is lucky to have Peter. I though know I would never ever get on with Peter at all. Peter is a softie for a victim story. I don't play the victim record very well at all.
So for avoidance of doubt, this blog isn't written to win friends or to influence the right people. I don't actually care if anyone reads it or not. I am though thankful to those who do visit. I am always honoured by those who take the time to sit and read my ramblings. It is written as record of my thoughts and ideas because I simply like to write. I like to keep diaries, records of events at a certain time so in many years to come I shall review a day back in time.
Lastly, many have to accept that I am part way through litigation [Judicial Review]with the General Medical Council caused by the fact I assisted two individuals - Lisa Blakemore Brown and David Southall. Each are now free of their shackles and each of them has left me to fight my own battle. While many have relied on me through their rough times, I cannot rely on anyone and neither would I wish to.
I though have the biggest battle of my entire life and it is never easy legally fighting the General Medical Council. I don't have the backing of Remedy UK Or PACA or the blogging community - I therefore have me, my brain, my stamina, my lawyers and my family. But that is nothing new of course :) because its always been the case. Trying to even explain the battle to the likes of Oliver Dearlove would take an age. You would see that glassy look, that distracted twitch that makes the dim simply move on to more exciting things because they simply don't understand the medical importance of the battle ahead.
I acknowledge that my ideas and my thoughts are probably a product of the various ideas that float in my mind during such times. Litigation does not particularly make me happy. I hate it. I dislike dealing with lawyers, the courts and the opposition. I would rather be doing something far more important. I don't particularly feel friendly towards those who are unsupportive and I don't particularly feel gentle towards the medical systems. I also do not feel particularly friendly towards those who have conspired to cause my repeat litigation against the General Medical Council. It may be amusing to some people but it isn't to me - that is because I know that beating the GMC takes hard work, it doesn't just take simple lectures that Peter gives at the Medico Legal Society. It takes blood, sweat effort and attention to detail.
So, shall I apologise to Dr Skinner or Dr Gooderham. Perhaps I should but I am not going to because I am entitled to my view as they are entitled to theirs. They are free to diss me behind closed doors and even insult me. Many people do and its a part of life. That is afterall human behaviour. Dr Wayne in his naivety has swerved to protect his friends but what he didn't know is this - I know about everything that is said on the Doctors Only Website - good and bad. I also observe those who backup their friends and those who don't. I also observe those who back me up and those who don't. People are often fascinating when studied in the Gold Fish Bowl. Did Dr Wayne make the right call? We will never know!
Good Nite :).
