A Christian nurse has been suspended from her role in Britain’s National Health Service after she spoke out about allegedly being disciplined for refusing to refer to a biologically male convicted paedophile patient as a woman.
Jennifer Melle has been suspended by the St Helier Hospital in Carshalton, London over allegedly breaching patient confidentiality after she spoke out about being previously disciplined by the NHS Trust for refusing to use female pronouns when referring to a male convicted child sex abuser while under her care.
Despite Melle claiming that the patient had racially abused her and physically threatened her, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) determined that she was “a potential risk” for refusing to acknowledge the paedophile s preferred “gender identity”.
According to Melle, after she refused to abide by his pronoun demands, the child sex offender responded: “How about I call you ******?… Yes, black ******!”
After speaking to the press last month over the incident, Melle received word last week that she had been suspended from her position for violating the child sex offender’s confidentiality. This comes despite Melle not publicly disclosing the name of the convict, who is currently incarcerated in a high-security prison after being found guilty of sexually abusing multiple boys after posing as a teenage girl online.
The nurse has vowed to launch a lawsuit against the NHS Trust, claiming harassment, discrimination and human rights violations.
”Ever since I expressed my Christian beliefs under extreme pressure, I have been a marked woman,” she said in a statement published by the Christian Concern charity. “Despite being the one placed at risk, I am the one being punished. I have been made to feel like a criminal.”

Britain is lost.
Who cares?
We should care. They were once a powerful Christian nation. Now they just suck big eggs.
There has to be UK Muslim health care workers who also refuse to use fake gender labels. Odd that we never hear about that.
🤔
Britain (its elites at least) is tolerant of evil, and intolerant of good. It’s no longer about being partly wrong, as in demanding tolerance of all things; it’s about taking the wrong side in every way they can.
What would happen to a Muslim nurse who refused to accommodate Jewish patients?
Trump is pretty lenient on the UK when it comes to trade-tariffs but I think I want a tough line on freedom of speech and religion in the UK particularly in matters where Christians are pesecuted.
The government as best many of us understand it in the UK favors Islam and gives it a lot of deference by comparison.
So a need to restore balance. JD Vance should be a little louder about these things.
> it’s about taking the wrong side in every way they can <
Yes, indeed. The UK government picks the wrong option on almost every issue. And it doesn’t matter who’s in charge, Tory or Labour.
The UK Reform Party offers a third way. But Tory and Labour would probably form an alliance before they’d allow Reform to take power.
🙁
Democrats in the US are envious.
Sadly.
Practically nothing.
That Monopoly is something else
‘1984’ for real
