A midwife is taking legal action against a London hospital trust after it made counter-terrorism and regulatory referrals over her social media support for Palestine and criticism of Zionism. Fatimah Mohamied alleges these referrals, made after she had resigned from her role, amount to harassment and discrimination under employment law. The complaints, initiated by a lobby group, accused her of supporting Hamas and stirring up racial hatred, but both the police and regulatory body dismissed the referrals, finding her posts were lawful expressions of belief. Her lawyers argue the trust's actions were disproportionate and highlight the need for employers to respect individual rights and resist external pressure.
