The trust said Dr Ellen Kriesels was ‘not currently scheduled to be working' after it investigated posts linked to the doctor.

A spokesperson for Whittington Health NHS Trust said: ‘We can confirm that we have heard the concerns raised about one of our employees. The employee concerned is not currently scheduled to be working at the trust. However, it would not be appropriate to comment further on a confidential internal management issue.

‘The care of all our local community is our number one priority. There is no place at Whittington Health for any form of discrimination, and we want to make clear that any contrary opinions any employee may express in their personal capacity do not reflect the views of the trust in any way.'

Comments posted on the account, described Hamas as ‘oppressed resistance fighters, not terrorists', adding reaction to the October 7 attacks on Israel was ‘always trying to frame the Jews as victims'.

The posts emerged after Dr Kriesels appeared at a pro-Palestinian protest in London on 6 September carrying a placard of flag of Israel with the words ‘rape', ‘steal', ‘cry', ‘lie', ‘cheat' and ‘kill'.
