Yep, was pretty grim tbh!

Thank you and yes, was a very bad day. Always felt it was an exercise in keeping me in line, I’ve always been a bit outspoken in these appts, never spoken to anyone else in the UK who’s been subjected to the same.

Yes

I was made to go through a physical exam where I had to strip to my underwear whilst they tested my reflexes, breathing etc. I initially refused but was told I’d be discharged if I didn’t do it. Was chaperoned but still awful, esp as I had no bra on some had to hide my boobs behind lots of bluroll.

Oh, 100% agree, sadly from personal experience. Stay safe out there!

Yeah, with you on this, guess we see how it plays out in practice now, still have to be wary tho I feel.

My GIC put me through one of these (if it’s the same thing) and I’d genuinely never felt so violated in my whole life. Glad it might stop.

I’ve been really anxious about it all day but yeah, different to what I was expecting too. Still not sure how to feel mind.

You’re a very talented writer! 😘😘😘

Ooh this is lovely, very spare but very evocative

Exactly the same!!

Correct imo

Hmm, a partial win I guess!!
