I don't usually like talking numbers (when you didn't pass your Maths GCSE until the age of 31, you generally don't...), and I realise mentioning salaries is terribly uncouth and un-English (maybe the Russian lessons are having more impact than I thought?), but I've discovered some particularly salient facts - or rather, figures - that I'd like to bring to your attention...
I remember reading this article last month, and being slightly 'out of breath' myself.
For exactly the same reasons that you've expressed in this piece. Namely: that all the
wrong punters would be all over this 'drama' for all the wrong reasons. And that the chat round the campfire/watercooler would be rife with distorted, ambiguous and outright erroneous horseshit.
There's a point in the Zoe Williams article - where; the blessed Rachel, is putting out fires everywhere: filming in the democratic republic of the Congo; marrying a fighter pilot; giving birth to two or three babies. simultaneously; saving the NHS [single-handedly] from screaming Tories, who've partied all the money, for PPE, away on ilicit lockdown, orgies and piss ups. And, she's wrote Three books, a couple of screen plays - studied endlessly through six years of night school, to be a Doctor [?] As well as saving virtually everyone's life [or at least bringing them back from the brink - so they could be alive to watch, Breathtaking.] and all before bedtime... Godsakes. Throw in Laura Kuenssberg, Marina Hynde, George Monbiot, and the Head of the BBC; a few script writers, and a couple of Cultural Marxists, and you've almost got a quorum of the Establishment. My biggest conundrum is: when will they ever fucking grow up..??!?
Thanks Dean, and quite so. It's a staggeringly implausible story by anyone's estimation. An interesting anomaly to come out of the Guardian piece you mention is that Rachel claims to have done two years at UCL medical school, and then transferred to Oxford. Yet Oxford University does not accept transfer students...
Highly likely you’re right about Rachel Clark, that career move does not pass the smell test. It reminded me when reading it of this deep dive in to author Michael Crichton who also purported to be a trained Dr but was in all likelihood an intelligence asset https://big-lies.org/mileswmathis/crichton2.pdf
'Close the screen'; switch off the TV; And throw your phone in the river !!

“[E]ven her hair smells like everything’s going to be OK.” 🤢 I cannot continue reading Zoe’s article. I refuse.

There was always something off about Rachel Clarke, even amongst a mass of NHS staff claiming hero status she stood out as particularly nauseating.
Back then I didn’t have a ‘Miri Mindset’ so didn’t consider that she could be just acting out her role as planned.
Thanks for another very interesting article 👍🏻
Thank you, Mick!
"Breathfaking" is a great piece of journalism. Worth the subscription on its own.
Many thanks, Hugh, much appreciated!
