Peter Hitchens now. And they are still arguing on X
And those aren’t the only staff of the unit right? There were tons both in management of the unit, higher up and the nurses/doctors on the unit who weren’t outraged and shouting about her. I’ve said a few times I’m using unit as shorthand and people absolutely did defend the unit saying it wasn’t poor and there was no evidence of it - no need to gaslight me by pretending they didn’t. I know some would rather we only blamed Letby but IMO that’s not realistic, we’re hearing in great detail now how much the unit was poor.I don't think people are defending anybody who isn't a paediatric consultant or registrar!

OH MY bleeping GOD - they didn't routinely compare death rates from year to year.![]()
Obsessed with Letby being the only problem?I’m “obsessed” with the unit because it’s the thing that be changed in the future. You’ll never change the fact there are people like Letby out there, there always have been and always will be - all you can do is learn from mistakes and try to make sure it’s spotted next time. Which is what I’ve fairly consistently said over the past few days despite people being determined to paint me as defending Lucy.
ETA: and to be honest I’m not sure why people are so obsessed with Letby being the only problem and defending a unit and wider people who clearly behaved very poorly themselves and potentially allowed her to go undetected for longer - and added to the parents pain by meaning the first they found out of collapses and incidents was from the police which is just vile.
That’s not what I meant and anyone with a rudimentary grasp of English would know that.Obsessed with Letby being the only problem?we’re all very sorry for focusing the discussion around someone as unimportant as the murderer

That’s not what I meant and anyone with a rudimentary grasp of English would know that.The inquiry is about the hospital not Letby’s guilt, sorry for wanting to be able to explore what they did wrong too.
Isn't that the point of he inquiry?I’m “obsessed” with the unit because it’s the thing that be changed in the future.

What an utter bleeping cockwomble this fella is. Deary me!!Phil is at it again
I’m getting second hand embarrassment over this. He wants Lady Thirlwall to do what exactly, look at recommending a complete overhaul of the justice system?Phil is at it again
I wish people would stop this "I make no judgement either as to innocence of guilt."Phil is at it again
No one on here is defending the management and that included the unit managers. No one. It was obvious from the very start that they hadn't done their jobs properly. What I would always defend is the nursing staff on that unit who worked their hardest, gave the best care to those babies and struggled to understand what was happening when Letby began her reign of terror.I’m “obsessed” with the unit because it’s the thing that be changed in the future.

I'd love him to put his proposal about making the defence call their expert witnesses to a barrister, they laugh in his face or tell him to sling his hook.Phil is at it again
you'd think with sending a report to Ben Myers and getting back a receipt but nothing else the penny might drop with Phil but apparently notPhil is at it again
They are a scummy bunch that's for sureSome bint on Twitter/X has wished a painful death on me tonight for suggesting that her NG pleas may be in vain. Charming![]()
