TL;DR
  • Dr. Billy Ralph has been a doctor for 32 years and runs his own practice in County Wexford. He was brought before the Irish Medical Council on charges of professional misconduct over tweets sent between 2020 and 2022 that were critical of the Covid-19 measures pushed by the National Public Health Emergency Team, and has been found guilty. Dooley calls the council a "kangaroo court".
  • According to the council's chairperson, the tweets were "dangerous, inappropriate", and they undermined the emergency team and public health guidelines. Dooley asks people to think about what those guidelines were. In his account they provided cover for the greatest transfer of wealth towards billionaires in society, looked after the so-called "laptop class" better than anyone else, and came alongside attacks on basic civil rights: limits on movement of 2 km, at one stage 5 km, for what was an airborne virus, and vaccine passports that introduced discrimination based on private and personal medical choices.
  • The censure reported against Dr. Ralph includes social media courses, so that he does not make the same "mistake" again and follows the appropriate national health guidelines. Dooley reads the condition as the sinister part, because the courses are attached to keeping his registration as a general practitioner. Doctors take the Hippocratic oath, "first do no harm", he says, and yet those who do not follow the establishment's agenda are castigated, vilified and persecuted for using their free speech.
  • He points back to the emergency team itself, chaired by the chief medical officer of the time, as the moment the Irish government ceded responsibility to a group of technocrats detached from the reality ordinary people faced. Much of the fallout has become apparent over the last couple of years, he argues, but it is not part of the government's Covid inquiry, which he notes is running a "no blame approach". He ends asking people to use their voices, and putting his support behind the doctors who spoke out and the families who carried the cost with them.

Hello everyone

Hello everyone. Censorship is alive and well in Ireland of 2026. Now the latest case I'd like to bring to you is that of Dr. Billy Ralph. He has been a doctor for 32 years and has his own practice in an escort county Wexford and has performed to an exemplary level in those years. Now he was dragged before the coals into the kangaroo court that is the Irish medical council in relation to facing charges of professional misconduct which.

Unsurprisingly he has been found guilty of of this jumped up kangaroo court in relation to a series of tweets that he sent out between 2020 and 2022 that were critical of many of the COVID 19 draconian measures pushed forward by the National Public Health Emergency Team. Now, according to the chairperson of the Irish Medical Council, these tweets were dangerous, inappropriate, and they undermined the National Public Health Emergency Team, which is NEFT, and public health guidelines.

Please think about those guidelines that were issued by that public health emergency team during that period of time that provided cover for the greatest transfer of wealth towards the billionaires in society and looked after the so-called laptop class better than anyone else during that period. At the same time, many of our civil rights were attacked. Our basic basic rights of movement, not to mention other serious draconian restrictions, including so-called vaccine passports that introduce discrimination into Irish.

Society based on your private and personal medical choices. Now, this is interesting, isn't it? As I remember the national public health emergency team being dragged before the coals under the chairmanship of we all remember the chief medical officer at the time Tony Holahan. That's when the Irish government seeded responsibility to a group of technocrats who are completely detached from the reality that ordinary people faced when they were making all of these sometimes nonsensical decisions. We all remember.

The 9uro meal. If you remember a 2 kilometer restriction for movement and uh one stage was 5 km but remember this was an airborne virus but at the same time we've seen in the last couple of years so much of the fallout of this becoming apparent in terms of the impacts on many ordinary people right around the country but we won't say anything about that because that isn't part of the co inquiry that's being pursued by the.

Irish government

Irish government. They said there's going to be a no blame approach. Remember that no blame approach. But yeah, there's been many doctors dragged over the coals because of their freedom of expression. And remember doctors have what they call is the hypocratic oath which means do no harm. First do no harm. That is the first oath they take towards his duty of care towards their patients. But at the same time, if they don't follow the narrative, don't follow.

“That is the first oath they take towards his duty of care towards their patients”

The establishment's agenda, well then they're going to be castigated, vilified, and dragged through the coals and attacked and persecuted because of your decision to use your free speech and freedom of expression. So, it's been reported that there is going to be censure on Dr. Bill of and this censure will include a social media will include social media courses so he doesn't make the same inverted commas mistake again and he pursues the appropriate national health guidelines. Here we go. Censorship is.

Alive and well. But it's even more sinister because he's advised to go on these social media courses to maintain his registration as a general practitioner. This is really Orwellian stuff, isn't it? The programming of of the times of George Orwell's 1984. We all remember Winston Smith in that novel which is becoming true to life where independent thought and their memory and any sort of recollection of previous events or any descenting thoughts were smashed from the individual for the greater good. Of.

Course, this is what it's all about, isn't it? For the greater good. as Europe lurches towards totalitarianism and Ireland in particular is a leading light in terms of the road to darkness that that will ultimately lead to in Ireland. We have this nonsense being pursued by the establishment. As I said, many of these doctors have been persecuted, vilified, and as I said, drag dragged emotionally and professionally through the coals because they had a difference of opinion to the.

05:37

Establishment

Establishment. Isn't that interesting? And that's a case really in terms of what's taking place in Ireland. But for all of us, start using our voices more and more to speak out. We want a society and a country where people can have their point of view and have it heard rather than be silenced, cancelled or risk of censure or told to pull up to maintain your reg registration as a worker. Absolutely outrageous. So our full support should be with all of those.

Doctors, Dr. Marcus Sabrun, Dr. Billy Ralph and many more as well who have suffered needlessly and their families as well professionally and personally in terms of what took place. Well, I'm sure the future will shine brightly on those in terms of those doctors who spoke out to what took place during that period of time when many didn't and took the shilling and the easy way out rather than standing up for what was right in society during that period of time. So,.

Thanks so much for all the support with my videos. really appreciate them and slong a fold this evening. Take care. See you all soon.

A doctor of 32 years found guilty of misconduct over his Covid-era tweets.

Dr. Billy Ralph, a doctor for 32 years with his own practice in County Wexford, has been found guilty of professional misconduct by the Irish Medical Council over a series of tweets he sent between 2020 and 2022 criticising the Covid-19 measures pushed by the National Public Health Emergency Team. Dooley calls the council a "kangaroo court" and reports that its chairperson described the tweets as "dangerous, inappropriate" and as undermining the emergency team and public health guidelines. The censure reported against Dr. Ralph includes social media courses, tied to keeping his registration as a general practitioner, which Dooley reads as the more sinister part of it. He sets the finding against the guidelines themselves: restrictions on movement, vaccine passports he says brought discrimination based on private medical choices, and a period that in his account looked after the so-called "laptop class" better than anyone else. His argument is that doctors who did not follow the establishment's agenda have been vilified for using their freedom of expression.

At the same time, many of our civil rights were attacked. Our basic basic rights of movement, not to mention other serious draconian restrictions, including so-called vaccine passports that introduce discrimination into Irish.

Society based on your private and personal medical choices. Now, this is interesting, isn't it?
