  •  publishing a letter in Lancet in 2014 from a number of pro-Palestinian activists which the Israeli Ministry of Health characterised as “bordering on blood libel".
  • the case of Sir Roy Meadows.
  •  railing against "the axis of Anglo-American imperialism" at a 2006 rally in Manchester.
  • Still editor-in-chief though.

    Added, from Marcus Evans:

    In 2019, after resigning as governor of @TaviAndPort [the Tavistock Clinic] ,@TheLancet contacted me for an interview about my decision. I raised concerns about the Trust’s promotion of unevidenced, sometimes irreversible medical interventions on children, despite staff and parent complaints. The journal initially showed interest.

    I am grateful to you @jonkay, for editing a piece I wrote for @Quillette, but The Lancet editor informed me the article was dropped without explanation.

    Disappointing from a journal that should prioritize medical ethics over ideology. Like the @BMA, many medical institutions have lost their moral compass, and public confidence is declining.
