Richie is joined by Dr Tamara Ali and Dr Rehiana Ali. UK doctors are being investigated, suspended and silenced – not for harming patients, but for speaking out against genocide and for engaging in lawful political speech. Healthcare Workers Against Censorship (HAC) plan to take the government and the General Medical Council (GMC) to the High Court to stop it.https://chuffed.org/project/180354-stop-the-gmc-dhsc-now-end-political-persecution-of-uk-doctorsDr Tamara Ali is a GP in Scotland who has become the focus of a high-profile legal dispute after she says she faced disciplinary action for displaying a small Palestinian flag and wearing a Palestine pin while working in an NHS setting. She argues that she was subjected to discrimination and censorship because of her support for the Palestinian cause and has launched legal proceedings challenging the actions taken against her.https://www.crowdjustice.com/case/palestine-flag-terrorism-an-nhs-case/Joining her on today's show is consultant neurologist Dr Rehiana Ali, who was suspended by the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service pending a General Medical Council investigation into her social media activity relating to Israel and Palestine. She has consistently maintained that her comments were protected political speech and has argued that she is being punished for exercising her right to freedom of expression. The interim suspension was later lifted by a tribunal.https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/reforming-the-general-medical-council-legislative-framework
