The nurse was suspended by NHS Fife in January 2024 following a row with Dr Beth Upton regarding the doctor being allowed in a women’s changing room.
She has since lodged a claim against NHS Fife and Dr Upton, citing the Equality Act 2010.
Ms Wishart, who has worked for NHS Fife for 41 years, told the tribunal Ms Peggie’s comment regarding a mosque in Kirkcaldy was made on 4 September 2023.
She said Ms Peggie said “she had a good mind to post bacon through their letterbox” and that the comment stood out in her mind because it was offensive.
Ms Peggie’s lawyer Naomi Cunningham suggested the comment had been made several years previously by a male paramedic, and Ms Wishart was choosing to falsely attribute it to Ms Peggie.
She denied this, and said it was definitely the nurse who made the comment.
She said other comments regarding Dr Upton were made at the lunch, but could not recall the details of what words were used.
However other colleagues had told her Ms Peggie had referred to Dr Upton as “weirdo”, “freak” and “it”.
