It is amazing that the UK government (or, at least, a government committee) is getting involved in this case. He's been faced with accusations - not a trial, not definitive proof, just anonymous accusations about his behavior more than a decade ago - and government employees are immediately running around telling everyone to silence him.

I'm not normally conspiracy-minded, but some of these anonymous women seem to be saying the quiet part out loud: "Well, now that he's rebranded himself as a health guru, I felt I had to act."

In other words, maybe this is just a big game of Silence The Antivaxxer.
