Hyacinth McIntosh, known as ‘XY’ under a Court of Protection ‘transparency order’, can now be named after she died on Christmas Day following her life support, food and fluids being withdrawn against her family’s wishes.

A Christian social media influencer sacked by a North London Catholic school for supporting Biblical marriage on Instagram in her own time, will appeal a tribunal ruling which has upheld her dismissal and denied her right to free speech. 

A Christian family, gagged by a Court of Protection ‘transparency order’, are in a race against time to save the life of their 54-year-old mother and grandmother known only as “XY”, after a UK judge ruled that her right to live is ‘outweighed’ by the medical evidence and it is therefore in her ‘best interests’ to die.

This week, an employment tribunal will hear the case of a Christian social media influencer and education behavioural specialist who was sacked by a North London Catholic school for supporting Biblical marriage on Instagram in her own time. 

Today, following a meeting with Health Secretary, Wes Streeting, the Darlington Nursing Union (DNU) is now set to meet the Shadow Equalities Minister, Claire Coutinho, in Parliament.
