Given that we don't know what was in her suicide note, claiming she didn't blame Hunt is lying about things just as much as anything Tesseraction claimed.

We don't have the text but this

quote:

The BBC has previously reported that it understood she had left a note to loved ones. The broadcaster said it believed the contents of the note “were mainly related to personal issues, but there was a passing reference to health secretary Jeremy Hunt”. At the time, a spokesman for Devon and Cornwall police said: “We would not speculate on any contents of any note.”

From the last time this story was posted gives no impression that she 'blamed' Hunt for committing suicide.

I thought it was at least 'mentioned' in the note? *
This opens the possibility that she was depressed that the contract was being rejected by her peers, and she wished JH all the best with his efforts. Or maybe the highlight of her career had been when she once was in the same room as Jeremy (whom she loved from afar), and nothing in life could compare to that now he was hiding from junior doctors such as she...
Or, just maybe, the extra pressures on her due to that fuckwit meant she no longer felt able to cope? Nah, that would just be silly.

Right, I worded it badly but what I was getting at was that speculating on the contents of a suicide note based on, at best, second hand hearsay is never a good look either way.

I wouldn't blame him either. He should probably try something less drastic like retiring first though.

It does give that impression (because why else would you mention Jeremy Hunt in a suicide note?), we just don't know for sure.

You do know suicide notes don't actually get written with poo poo like "My name's Rose and Cunty Hunty is why I'm gonna breathe water." The passing reference was probably along the lines of "and with the new contract being brought in I won't even have time to cope."

She was obviously depressed, hence the suicide. It's not like she was completely happy with everything in her life then heard about Jeremy Hunt's new contract and went "all right, time to get in the sea!" while smiling psychopathically as she submerged beneath the waves.

Don't get me wrong, if Hunt is mentioned in her note then it's highly probable that she laid some blame at his door. After all, she was a doctor.

It's just that personally, I think it's a bit grim to speculate about the contents of a suicide note that we only know the contents of second hand.

That isn't to say that I think her family should release the contents of the note either.

There are many other ways of attacking Jeremy Hunt's callous ineptitude that don't involve a tragic suicide.

This is a silly post with little news value.

It's pretty crass to suggest someone's suicide could be reduced to one single cause. Really it won't be that simplistic.

If refusing to nod along while people fabricate stories is pedantic then i'm comfortable with that.

It was more the ambiguity of my words than an intentional claim on my part that Hunt was the sole cause - she was probably in a bad enough place that something else would have been the cause had this contract dispute not taken place. If he was the straw that broke the camel's back he may have merely been one of several potential straws.
