It’s a point already made that’s 100% worth repeating: I dream of a time when safe staffing of clinical areas is consistently analysed and promoted with the diligent rigour that there has been for today and tomorrow.
We’ve just had a donation of £300 and this was the message. How wonderful. We Love Our NHS - this is over and above, especially as we know that you are over-stretched.
Here's your weekly reminder that 10 years ago the NHS was the best healthcare system on the planet, ranked number 1 by the @commonwealthfnd. The NHS crisis is due to a decade of Tory underfunding and criminal grade neglect. We don't need a new system, we need a new govt.

The NHS is in crisis.
Patients are unsafe.
Our members are saying loud and clear: enough is enough.
For the first time in the RCN’s history, our members have mandated strike action throughout the UK.
RT to support nursing.

We'll hear a lot of talk over the coming weeks about patient safety but patients can only be safe if those on the frontline who look after them are able to work in the best conditions possible. That's what nurses and other healthcare workers are fighting for.
What a terrifying chart from @jburnmurdoch: “Today there are half a million more working-age people in the UK with impairing health conditions than if pre-pandemic trends had continued”
In a triumph for diversity, our next Prime Minister will either be someone who studied PPE at Lincoln College, Oxford, or someone who studied PPE at Merton College, Oxford.
Absolutely incredible line on LBC from a caller.
“The prospect of a new conservative PM is like seeing a menu of diseases and having your dad order for you”
This isn't Conservative MPs suddenly realising the person they made Prime Minister is an amoral, lying, arrogant, nasty piece of work.
It's Conservative MPs realising that their own political careers are at risk unless they abandon him.
It's naked self-interest, nothing more.
