Scotland turned a private Facebook discussion into a full-blown scandal.

Sara Spencer, an American midwifery student in Scotland, was suspended from her NHS placement for...brace yourself...discussing her conscientious objection to abortion in a private group with fellow students.

No protests. No disruption. Just a conversation about ethics in midwifery.

NHS Fife responded like a caffeine-fueled hall monitor, launching a fitness-to-practice investigation faster than you can say “thought police.”

After months of bureaucratic nonsense, Spencer was finally cleared. But even with her name cleared, she got a stern warning about her social media activity.
