Bad Boy Bradshaw
Bradshaw is a pot calling kettle black kind of person. He has been aware of many medical whistleblowers in the NHS and has done nothing about it. He runs away from commenting on Ward 87 because lets face it, Ward 87 and the warnings to the government in 1999 are now an embarrassment to them. The big question is this - when the government was told, why didn't they do anything about the status of the hospitals in the Midlands? If they had acted, 2000 people could have been saved. That is the basic upshot.
Well, it is all silence in the Bradshaw court on that.
Bradshaw conveniently avoids Ward 87 by never responding to the issues put to him. When Andrew Mitchell MP and I wrote to him about recording Ward death rates to monitor standards of care, he told us it wasn't required. His bizarre reasoning was further questioned. He was asked what research he was depending on regarding his decision. There was no subsequent response.

Ben Bradshaw can be seen getting on the media bandwagon about Undercover Nurse. Apparently he feels that her treatment by the NMC was unduly harsh. That may be so, but we have to look at the Department of Health's internal documents to understand the fact that in the year 2000, Department of Health officials and the General Medical Council purposely sought to mislead the inquiry into Ward 87. They purposely assisted in the reversal of an investigation on me. Their internal Department of Health documents are littered with criticisms of me. The question though remains - why was no individual on Ward 87 - be it the half baked nurses or the doctors ever held accountable? And why is David Fillingham, the then Chief Executive still working?
The documents cite the Department of Health admitting that they needed to "make an example" of a junior doctor. Their collusion with the General Medical Council is well documented through their officer at the time Professor Rod " I can lie because I can" Griffiths. The Department of Health structured a strategic cover-up of the concerns on Ward 87 by ensuring the Report THEY provided was diametrically opposite to the concealed internal reports at the hospital.
The Department of Health's collusion with the General Medical Council can be seen on this website. [right side midway]. These internal documents obtained under the Data Protection Act show the direct collusion and constant communication between them and the GMC and a phrase from the Department of Health related to the media " Which Line Shall We Take".
We have to remind Bradshaw that the minions at the Department of Health didn't close Ward 87 down despite the fact it was killing patients. What they did do was leave it open until 2005 so more patients died. The Trust then shut it down during the 6 months I forced the Report out of them. In seven years, I wonder how many people died? Well, we don't know because the hospital conveniently never recorded death rate - as the government does not deem it appropriate.
It was of course because of the Department of Health's intervention with the General Medical Council that prompted the GMC into conducting what they termed a " discreet inquiry" onto me. When Liam Donaldson was told of this behaviour of both the Department of Health official Prof Rod Griffiths and the General Medical Council, he ignored it. So I wonder if their involvement with me was "unduly" harsh.
Ben Bradshaw is acutely aware that they shot the whistleblower in 1998 and 2000. They subsequently told the media there were no concerns at the hospital [ and yes I have the press releases]. They then colluded in the GMC's efforts at character assasinating me. When they found out I was right, they then concealed it from me for 7 more years. Having done that and once it was discovered that people were actually dying in the Midlands, the Department of Health had nothing to say. Well, Ben should understand that had his cronies acted in 1998 and 2000 when they were warned about all Midlands Hospitals, patients would not have died. The 1999 letter to Frank Dobson by me outlines the shocking poor care throughout the Midlands, not to mention the fact that patient safety was being compromised. This letter was filed only to reappear in Pal v GMC 2004 when the GMC exclaimed that no response was ever provided by the Department of Health.
Well, Ben Bradshaw says nothing about the treatment of whistleblowing doctors by the General Medical Council being "unduly" harsh. He says nothing about the fact that investigations have been reversed on Dr Peter Wilmshurst, Mr Robert Phipps, Dr Shreedar Vaidya , Dr Raj Mattu and myself. All these doctors raised valid evidence based concerns. He says nothing about the destructive influence of the General Medical Council on doctor's careers. I no longer work in medicine. Does anyone ask the question - Why doesn't Dr Pal work in medicine anymore? Well, of course not. That is because very few would understand the machinations of whistleblowing.
That is because in Bradshaw's eyes there is only one self created whistleblower - that is Undercover Nurse.
We should get something in perspective here, not all nurses are angels, indeed, the Ward 87 nurses who were never admonished were wicked little madams with psychopathic streaks. What happens when a doctor whistleblows on nurses' incompetence? And many doctors know of incompetent lazy nurses who sit around the nursing station while patients struggle for breath and finally go into cardiac arrest. On Ward 87, I hold the nursing staff responsible for scapegoating me and victimising me. They were never disciplined by the NMC. Do we get a situation where the nursing fraternity gangs up on the medical whistleblower? Did the RCN or the NMC ever apologise for the conduct of these half baked incompetent nurses? Of course, they didn't. Anyway, the NMC's response to Ward 87 makes their double standards crystal clear. I would not call all nurses angels because they just aren't.
Liz Longstaff of the Royal College of Nursing was present at this 2001 Review on Ward 87 . The NMC in the guise of UKCC was also present [see list of people present on page 116 of the report] What did these people do? Well, while the RCN crows away in the news about poor care and does an excellent job for Undercover Nurse and whistleblowing nurses, let us remind them of their own responsibilities towards the patients on Ward 87. The Royal College of Nursing [ RCN] actually did nothing about the poor care on Ward 87 - apart from sit and around and look pretty of course. So in the RCN survey of late, they stated
We therefore assume that the RCN themselves came under that statistic in 2001.
So as we see the Stafford/Undercover Nurse/RCN/Ben Bradshaw combo go through the media bandwagon, we should remember what their true behaviour is like without publicity. We should also remember that average whistleblowers aren't Undercover Nurse. They are concerned folk who raise concerns without the razzmatazz of the media. It is therefore the reaction without media coverage that is the most important - because not every whistleblower is going to be on Panorama. Undercover Nurse is therefore a rather artificial situation - the reality is that other average whistleblowers don't get potential pay offs from Panorama, nor do they go to the media that much - and these are the whistleblowers that lack support.
While the RCN may well be making up for their past faults, Ben Bradshaw is simply being a typical Labour " jump on the bandwagon" media addict. It is politically advantageous to back Undercover Nurse because the people will apparently think what a fair man he is. Well, in honesty, Bradshaw has probably caused more deaths with his dysfunctional policies than anyone else.
He has never cared much for whistleblowers, he certainly ignores medical whistleblowers and is of the view that they should go away to some planet away from England. He has never assisted any medical whistleblowing consultant - that includes Steve Bolsin.
Lets ask Ben - if he is so concerned about whistleblowers, why doesn't he bring Steve Bolsin back to England where he belongs? He won't you see. Because Ben Bradshaw has never considered whistleblowers to be people he should listen to.
Despite all the publicity, the Health Select Committee has currently denied a review into Whistleblowing Post Bristol. The man responsible for the refusal is Kevin Barron MP, GMC Committee member. Quelle Surprise!
