This is a good start @wesstreeting. Keep listening to what the profession needs to put patients first. @doctor_katie @BMA_GP

[Wes Streeting @wesstreeting]

I met the leader of the BMA’s GP committee today, to listen to their concerns.

GPs have been neglected for too long. They are under-resourced, struggling to cope, and patients pay the price.

I am committed to fixing the front door to our NHS.

Great to meet @LabourAlexB this week and discuss keeping GPs at the heart of the community in Huntingdon. Labour and @wesstreeting have promised to listen to what we need to do just that.

Can’t see a GP - blame MPs & NHS England

Core funding for GP Practices has been cut by £2bn since 2016, enough for an average practice to employ 2 GPs, a Practice Nurse & more admin staff

Instead £1.4bn on ARRS ~ additional roles but no GPs or Practice Nurses

Patients need GPs

GPC England has spoken: the current 24-25 contract offer is woefully inadequate and puts patients and staffing levels at risk.

Watch the video update from @doctor_katie on our next steps, and why GPs should join the BMA to ensure you have your say.

The Gov, despite opposition from doctors, is pressing ahead with regulating PAs & AAs under the GMC. @Jdjanogly, as my MP, please oppose the draft Anaesthesia Associates and Physician Associates Order 2024 to protect patient safety

GP leaders in England call for a pause in recruitment of physician associates

[@DrKatie.BSky.Social @doctor_katie]

Contrary to the wording, I & @BMA_GP GPC England did not give @uk_biobank permission to support this letter, as @rorycollins knows

Sadly, this now affects my trust in how you’ll gain patient consent for their health data if you ignore mine so freely

GPs: this is not contractual

[Diana Hunter @DrDi2000]

Feeling despair around the future of general practice?

@CambsLMC and @doctor_katie have some solutions.

So proud to be working alongside the amazing @doctor_katie and the fantastic team at Duxford supporting our local GPs and practices.

[Parody RCGP @Parody_RCGP]

I often bleat on about the quality of LMCs and you lot often tell me that I am wrong.

Well here is an example of an LMC who are engaged and clearly have GPs backs! Thank you @doctor_katie and @CambsLMC. If I could move to Cambs I would!

[Dr Farah Jameel @DrFJameel]

GPs up & down the country are literally making themselves ill in the pursuit of caring for their patients. @NHSEngland unhealthy obsession with top down performance management of undeliverable targets must end. We must prioritise our time on those who need us the most not ✅box.

[Chaand Nagpaul @CNagpaul]

@BMA_GP @DrFJameel Huge congratulations to @DrFJameel - the first woman chair of @BMA_GP and commiserations to @DrChandraK9 - a historic moment for a BMA GPC chair election to be contested with both candidates being international medical graduates
