Badly treated cancer patient leant on by NHS trust

The Mail reports on Daniel Sencier, a cancer patient who wrote a blog highlighting failings in his hospital care. He has now been threatened with legal action by North Cumbria University Hospitals NHS Trust:
The Trust will monitor the content of your blog and if it contains information that is not factually correct or which contains unsubstantiated criticism of the care you received at the Trust, the Trust will have no hesitation in considering taking legal action against you.
Another example of unaccountable NHS managers bullying the citizens who pay their salaries,

The Mail does not trouble itself to link to Daniel's blog, but it is here and in the sidebar.

The bullying letter from the Trust's solicitors is here, together with Daniel's reply.

All power to him.
