@mmamas1973 Widening access - yes - fully agree with opening traditional medical training to the widest range of capable people. But FFS 4 years part time training for any time served band 6 is dumbing down the medical workforce as far as it’s possible to go. This must stop, now.
@DrLKVaughan The current service during strike action is equivalent to that delivered on every weekend in hospitals. If the government deem weekday strikes lead to unsafe care they admit that every weekend day of normal activity is equally unsafe. This proposal is purely political.
Ignore the Governments shameless lies about the Junior doctors strike - here are the actual FACTS & this is why I’m standing shoulder to shoulder with them.
If like me you stand with our courageous Junior docs RT this widely
Allegedly, in what is either a mistake/dirty tricks campaign @LeedsHospitals has blocked the Trust’s doctors’ reps from emailing doctors in the Trust. They’d do well to read the ACAS docs about providing means of communication. Wild West practices showing up NHS employers. 1/2
So Pret baristas will now be earning up to £14.10 an hour.
New NHS doctors - after their 5-year medical degree, whopping £80,000 of student debt, & life & death responsibilities - get paid £14.13 an hour.
And the government wonders why they're striking?

@StuartAndrew I believe you are my MP. I hope every eligible resident of #horsforth#pudsey does all they can to ensure they vote despite the best efforts of your party to block those least likely to vote Tory.
