I came across this article today about a homelessness officer in Wandsworth who has been suspended in relation to a complaint made against him in respect of a client.
Its alleged that he told a terminally ill woman that doctors didn't know everything and that she should put her faith in God during a religious rant he submitted her to.
Whilst I respect everyones right to hold a religious belief, its beyond the pale to me that a client in this womans position was told this by the officer. Whilst I'm a member of a union, all I can say to Wandsworth management is good on you for suspending the officer. Religion does not have any place when dealing with clients
