  • A Christian nurse was left with 'crippling anxiety' after 'bullying' by NHS chiefs 

  • Amy Gallagher, 34, from Kent, was told 'whites don't understand the world'

  • Mandatory NHS talks at Tavistock Trust said 'Christianity responsible for racism'

A Christian nurse was left with 'crippling anxiety' after she was 'bullied' by 'woke' NHS chiefs for saying that being white doesn't make you racist.

Amy Gallagher, 34, a mental health nurse from Orpington, Kent, was on a forensic psychology course training to be a psychotherapist at the Portman clinic, which is part of The Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust.

In an exclusive interview with MailOnline Amy has revealed how NHS bosses caused her 'crippling anxiety' after she challenged their 'racist' and 'offensive' views in lectures she was forced to attend.

Lecturers at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust told her 'whites don't understand the world' and 'Christianity is responsible for racism because it's European' in a series of 'politically biased' talks.

One of the Tavistock's seminars was even called 'Whiteness — a problem for our time' and included a description on the Trust's website that 'the problem of racism is a problem of whiteness'.

Amy is suing The Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust (pictured, The Tavistock Centre) for religious and racial discrimination in what may be the first case against 'woke ideology' in the courts

When Amy challenged these controversial views she was 'bullied' by staff and suspended from the course, pending an investigation into whether she is safe to work with patients. 

Almost a year later, no investigation has taken place.

It means her dream of becoming a psychotherapist is hanging by a thread.

As if that wasn't enough, a course lecturer also tried to get her banned from her day job as a practising mental health nurse.

However, the 34-year-old is fighting back. 

Amy is suing the Tavistock for religious and racial discrimination. 

It's a case that may be one of the first trials of wokeness.

However, it's not the first time the Tavistock Trust has faced scrutiny. 

The same trust faced court for giving children puberty-blocking drugs at their Gender Identity Development Service, which is being disbanded after a damning independent review.

Speaking about her treatment by The Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust Amy told MailOnline: 'I never attacked anyone. 

'I just said we need to have a different viewpoint’.
