    I'm greatly heartened by these comments. Also sad that clinicians with integrity can be badly affected by the profession closing ranks. I can only wonder at the dreadful effect on individuals who really care but dare not speak out - they are surely harmed, as are the victims. I think you would find that patient advocates, and especially 'radical' patient advocates, did not want to find themselves on such a journey. Having raised their heads above the parapet they then feel driven to continue trying to bring about change - because barriers to openness and justice are embedded in the system. I'm not just referring to unnecessarry deaths. Thank you Steve Turner.

    Thanks Steve. Once I had started speaking out about healthcare matters (30-odd years ago!) I felt freed to say what needed to be said - on behalf of patients and also professionals. It's ongoing.

    Great to see this problem on someone's agenda! For many years I've been appalled by the dreadful injustice meted out to healthcare workers who whistleblow for the sake of patient safety. Patients (too often) are also afraid to speak out - those who do so simply meet brick walls.
