Gard mum: Doc abuse must stop

- By Nicola Fifield

SICK Charlie Gard’s parents have begged for death threats against doctor and nurses to stop.

Great Ormond Street Hospital said police were called over the “shocking and disgracefu­l tide of hostility” against its staff.

Charlie’s parents said: “We don’t condone abusive or threatenin­g behaviour to GOSH staff. There is a line that shouldn’t be crossed.”

The couple are battling for permission to take the 11-month-old to the US for treatment, but GOSH says this would not help.

The hospital’s chair, Mary MacLeod, said: “Staff have received abuse both in the street and online.

“Thousands of abusive messages have been sent to doctors and nurses – whose life’s work is to care for sick children.” She said other parents had been abused.

Constituen­cy MP Keir Starmer called for the abuse to stop, saying it is “totally unacceptab­le”. KHIM Hang, 74, is enjoying “marital bliss” after marrying a calf she claims is hubby Tol reincarnat­ed in Kratie, Cambodia.
