The Pink Paper strikes again

Can anyone tell me why this story is in the gay press specifically?

a nurse who accessed pornographic websites at work and “caused distress and humiliation to patients” has been found guilty of misconduct.

Julian Faulkner’s alleged history of misdemeanours covers a period of two years, from May 2004 to June 2006. Incidents include asking a female colleague to molest a patient, showing another an image of a penis on staff computers and repeatedly watching the Iraqi execution of Briton Ken Bigley at work.

The 34-year-old nurse also threw grapes at one patient and, after ignoring an incontinent patient’s requests to visit the toilet, sprayed him with cold water as he was lifted out of the bath.

He also used inappropriate language at work and discussed his sex life with staff on the ward, the hearing was told.

Links on his computer were found to videos showing pitbull dogs killing a man in Paraguay and another man being run over in Brazil.

The nurse was found guilty of six charges alleging inappropriate behaviour. He now faces being kicked out of the profession.

NMC chairman Judith Worthington said: “These patients were entitled to receive safe and competent care and had the right to expect they were in a safe environment, This Is Derbyshire reported.

“As a registered nurse, Mr Faulkner owed each of these patients a duty of care. The nurse caused distress and humiliation to patients in his care by reason of the matters found proved. The nurse’s inappropriate behaviour was persistent. It was repeated despite the distaste expressed by female work colleagues.

“His actions indicated serious failings and amounted to conduct unworthy of a nurse. The panel is satisfied that they amounted individually and accumulatively to misconduct.”

Rosemary Paul, for the NMC, said Faulkner worked as a D-grade staff nurse at the time of the allegations, which related to two patients three times.

“The charges also relate to the way Mr Faulkner interacted with staff on the ward,” she added. “He was inappropriate in using sexual language in relation to his own sex life and in relation to patients and work colleagues.

“His use of the work IT system was inappropriate conduct in that he accessed inappropriate websites and showed colleagues explicit images

I am sorry but where is the gay slant of this story, was the nurse gay? is that it? I must be missing something but am not sure what.

You may not realise this but sports presenter Claire Balding, ya know big shoulders, face slightly like a bo selecta mask, big chin? well she is an out and proud lesbian and the other week she got into s bit of trouble - she was covering the Grand National for the BBC and was interviewing the jockey of the winning horse who let's just say had teeth like the before shot in a dental advert, Claire casually mentioned that with his winnings he could afford to "get his teeth done" and the BBC received 1477 complaints - ha ha, I think the woman was pure comedy! more I say more lesbian comedy on the Beeb!

Well finally the last episode of "Horne and Corden" has aired on BBC3, I have to admit the series has been a tad shit but they tried! and dare I say I found the kiss between Horne as Superman and Corden as Spiderman ever so slightly arousing? well I have said it now and cant take it back, yes I have the hots for a decidely average actor and his obese comedy partner.

It's been a while since I have been on that internet site of intellect - the Sheffield Forum, where the people of my fair home city log on to wax lyrical about the hot topics of the day, although often the questions asked can be a tad fuckin stupid or people just go on there to comment on new aspects of the city - here is a corker, talking about a new Tesco store that has recently opened

- Has anyone been? I think it is fantastic it sells everything even sells sweets! And It even has a bakery!

For ten years I have had to put up with poor service from local shops (unprofessional to say the least). The staff at this tesco are great.
No local shop can even compete with their management structure

the majority of the questions asked are by such stupid people, they actually go on line log into the site, post a question and then wait for a response, the only problem being that they are usually asking for phone numbers or email addresses, dare I say google? muppets!

I would normally actually have part of this blog full to the brim with showbiz gossip but the cold, hard fact is that it's a bit thin on the ground at the moment, is it just me or is nobody of interest doing anything at the moment? I would report on the amount of times Britney has said something stupid in concert lately but that's getting to be too regular an occurrence, Amy Winehouse is back in St Lucia so the streets of Camden are tumbleweeded at the moment and Kerry Katona is not daring to set foot outside her front door at the moment, possibly too twatted to find it.

Here's hoping for a revelation soon!
