Fury...nurse protest outside tribunal

Karen Danson is one of seven nurses taking County Durham and Darlington NHS Trust to an employment tribunal after a colleague, Rose Henderson, who was born male but now identifies as a woman, was allowed to use female facilities at Darlington Memorial Hospital.
