Shocking to hear Dr Sarah Benn has been founded guilty of misconduct for peacefully holding a climate protest sign.

It’s a shocking state of affairs that doctors acting in line with their conscience & in the name of public health, risk being struck off the medical register.

1/7🧵This morning doctors and members of the public are at the GMC to demand action on the climate and health emergency. The GMC's responsibilities include setting medical standards and safeguarding population health. #ActNowGMC - tinyurl.com/28wvle4q
