I am a Muslim doctor. I have worked in the NHS for 15 yrs. In spite of ample evidence of the structural discrimination within esp the higher echelons, I have always had faith in our NHS.

The utter disdain clear in the appointment of Trevor Phillips by @PHE_UK is a new low.

A man who has made a litany of unfounded claims that align with far-right Islamophobes and are used by them to justify violence against us. https://twitter.com/miqdaad/status/1236935771015327744?s=21

To appoint him to give “expert advice” on the disproportionate impact of Covid19 on BAME communities makes it clear to Muslim key workers and citizens that our wellbeing is of no concern to @PHE_UK.
