UK’s GMC, Dr Jayne Donegan’s Story, Vaccines & MMR Here is the shocking story of how Dr Jayne Donegan was victimised by but won against the UK  General Medical Council and members of the UKs Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation and all for giving accurate and truthful evidence in Court about vaccines and their hazards.

 After the case had been effectively dismissed and the parents had been awarded costs against Essex County Council on 9 December 2003, the parents lodged an official complaint with the General Medical Council (GMC), against Dr. Aloke Agrawal and Dr. RN Mahesh Babu. Despite the GMC’s own medical screeners confirming that the paediatricians had a case to answer, the GMC decided not to take any disciplinary action against either paediatrician. However, after much badgering, the parents discovered that the GMC had clandestinely agreed to accept blatantly false and incorrect ‘defence documents’ from both paediatricians and had agreed not to inform the parents of this secret arrangement. When this was brought to the attention of the Council for Healthcare Regulatory Excellence (CHRE) , the overarching regulator of the GMC, they learned from the CHRE, that an anomaly existed that prevented the CHRE from being involved in such cases. The regulator in effect was no regulator but a passive onlooker to victimisation of the public by GMC members, in this case and a whole class of other similar cases.

[Jan 2008] My Experience with the General Medical Council by Dr Jayne Donegan, MB However, the GMC was not going to make life easy for me.  I live in London.  The GMC  is based in London. I am the sole care and supporter of two children whom I also home educate.  The GMC therefore decided that the case would be held in their offices in Manchester.  They even tried to schedule the case for May 2007 – right in the middle of GCSEs.  It would be bad enough trying to do GCSEs if your mother went off to a different city for three weeks leaving you to fend for yourself even if she weren’t home educating you, how much more so when she is your teacher as well. I had to get a letter from Education Department of Barnet stating that I would be in dereliction of my duty to educate my children if I went way and left them at such a time.
...............It is notable that under cross examination on Day Two, Dr Elliman was forced to concede, that there have been no randomised placebo controlled trials of any of the vaccines in use in the last 20 to 30 years where vaccinated children are compared with unvaccinated children given an inactive placebo (sterile water or normal saline). In the one placebo controlled trial that he cited for MMR, the ‘placebo’ contained, amongst other ingredients, neomycin and phenol red.  Neomycin is listed in the British National Formulary as ‘too toxic for parenteral (by injection) use’.
.........Evidence for the safety and efficacy of all these vaccines come from epidemiological studies which are by nature controversial, and which do not satisfy the criteria for scientific proof.......
   
I took my Medical Indemnity Organisation’s very strongly worded advice not to talk to the media. As all their cover is discretionary I felt I had no choice but to follow this advice. As a result there was very little coverage or publicity given to the fact that I was completely exonerated and some of that which was reported was incorrect.  I am very pleased that they paid my legal fees, the case cost over one hundred thousand pounds to defend, I could never have financed it myself.  The GMC is not a court, so even if you win, you don’t get any of the costs back, so when the defence bodies defend a case, for them, it is just money down the drain. This gives the GMC carte blanche to accuse anybody they like of Serious Professional Misconduct as they never have to pay for anyone except their own team if they are wrong.
