David Holt pronounced his wife, Kim, a expert of twenty-five years" standing, was "in shock" after the world-famous sanatorium advertised her pursuit not long ago but even revelation her.

The move is the ultimate in a fibre of cases where the NHS"s promises to strengthen whistle-blowers have valid false.

The exploration in to the Stafford sanatorium liaison has listened how healing staff who attempted to advise of deadly failings at the certitude were in jeopardy in to overpower by NHS managers.

This month, a London consultant, Ramon Niekrash, won an practice judiciary box opposite Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Woolwich, after he was victimised for raising concerns about cost-cutting.

Dr Holt"s MP, Lynne Featherstone, has pronounced that colleagues who upheld Dr Holt are being "bullied" and "pressured" by the hospital.

However, serve staff have come brazen to verbalise of critical problems at Great Ormond Street.

In December, Great Ormond Street betrothed to reach a "swift and gentle solution" with Dr Holt after a ban NHS London inform mostly irreproachable her criticisms of the kid abuse sanatorium in Haringey, for that Great Ormond Street supposing the doctors.

Dr Holt has outlayed the last 3 years on "special leave" given notice some-more than a year prior to Baby P came to the sanatorium that she and alternative doctors there were dangerously busy and a kid would die unless transformation was taken.

Tomorrow Dr Sabah al-Zayyat, the proxy locum who transposed Dr Holt after she was forced out of the clinic, goes prior to the General Medical Council, indicted of blank critical injuries to Baby Peter dual days prior to he died.

Great Ormond Street betrothed to exercise the recommendations of the NHS London report, one of that was that Dr Holt had finished zero wrong and should be reinstated. However, some-more than dual months after the publication, pronounced her husband, there has been no movement.

"Saying that zero has happened is roughly as well positive," pronounced Mr Holt. "What has happened is that they are pulling brazen with their plan to expostulate Kim out of the service."

Dr Holt herself who initial lifted her concerns in The Sunday Telegraph has been warned by the BMA not to verbalise to the media again for fright that the sanatorium will make use of it as a stratagem to pouch her.

But her father pronounced she had been asked to pointer an agreement that was tantamount to a "death warrant."

"They called it an eccentric intervention agreement, but it looked some-more similar to an exit agreement," he said. "Kim would have to determine to be firm by it, and the sanatorium was given the last contend over her fate. T

"here is no box for mediation, even if it was honestly independent, given NHS London has already pronounced Kim should lapse to her job. This is only an additional approach of disposing of her."

Shortly after the intervention agreement was proposed, Dr Holt non-stop the British Medical Journal to find that the pursuit she was ostensible to lapse to was being advertised.

"That was the majority obvious e.g. of the approach Great Ormond Street act," pronounced Mr Holt. "They obviously hold they are utterly unyielding and over the law and they intend to lift on just as they regularly have done."

Mr Holt pronounced that his mother had perceived "overwhelming support" from associate staff at the sanatorium given her Sunday Telegraph interview.

"She was approached by a series of alternative comparison people in the Trust who feel the same approach she does, quite about the approach in that Great Ormond Street is being managed and the rough enlightenment there," he said.

"Maybe Kim is being treated with colour in the approach she is given the government are desperately perplexing to deter others from going public."

Mr Holt, who is executive of financial at the FTSE 100 skill hulk Land Securities, said: "I have been in the commercial operation universe for twenty-five years and I have never seen anything similar to this.

"In majority blue-chip organisations people are authorised to demonstrate a perspective but being quashed or targeted."

Mr Holt appealed to intensity staff to equivocate Great Ormond Street. "Don"t hold the hype," he said. "Don"t work there. There are obviously vital problems at this sanatorium and my courtesy is that by ignoring them, they could move down a good inhabitant institution."

A Great Ormond Street orator said: "We are committed to solution the make a difference with the worker but courtesy it as a in isolation matter."
