CAMPAIGNERS slammed the doctors’ regulatory body today after a retired GP had her medical licence suspended over her involvement in a series of peaceful climate protests.

The 65-year-old had been handed custodial sentences for breaching injunctions by protesting with Insulate Britain in 2021 and 2022 on the M25.
