@tesla_uk Trade-in bonus only applies if you take delivery by end of March. Loads of people (see forums) ordered months ago and still have a delivery date for past end of March. You can't advertise and sell cars with an incentive that is impossible to get?
@LBC I work in the NHS. Any extra money is currently servicing NI rises and minimum wage increases (min wage pushes all salaries up). Not surprised re productivity billions just covers increased costs for salaries and because of inflation on fixed costs
These stats are frankly bonkers. If anybody is complaining about why they are waiting to see a GP. They need to ask why successive governments have not supported the same growth in GP numbers as it has hospital medic numbers
@wesstreeting fix it or fail
Wow. A local NHS consortium bid for this contract - yet it’s just been awarded to @HCRGCareGroup, the private company that was once Virgin Care.
@HCRGCareGroup will now - for profit - provide community care across all of Bath, Swindon, NE Somerset & Wiltshire.
Heartbreaking 😔
@lexfridman Have you read Asimov’s Foundation books?
They pose an interesting question: if you knew a dark age was coming, what actions would you take to preserve knowledge and minimize the length of the dark age?
For humanity, a city on Mars. Terminus.
The Bank of London is an authorised and regulated bank. So it's a pretty big deal that HMRC just petitioned to wind up its holding company, in the same week its founder stepped down as CEO.
This is a national scandal.
A corporate acquires a GP surgery and they are given an extra £320,000 to take over.
This is transferring money directly from the tax payer to corporates.
The NHS will be run by corporates in 5 years in primary care with the NHS badge being just a badge
The contract would not have been handed back if this funding was available to the GP partners so they could hire more GPs.
But this corporate will now pocket the profit whilst utilising ARRS funding for PAs and other staff.
Absolutely criminal.
The ICB couldn't support the existing local GPs, however they have managed to find another £40/patient for a private provider to do the work instead.
That is a massive uplift! Massive.
@wesstreeting please do take a look at what is happening up and down the country.
Alternative medicine.
Integrative Medicine.
Functional Medicine.
None of these are medicine.
They are marketing scams.
They’re deceptive and illusory Trojan-horse labels designed precisely to sneak pseudoscience into health care.
In a study of 1 901 815 cancer patients, those who chose alternative medicine had a 2-fold greater risk of death compared with patients who had no alternative medicine use: https://t.co/2EgdvBez0i
Physician associates (PAs) - the issues with them are huge
This woman is now apparently going onto the board of the GMC
Doctors are all up in arms about the GMC rulings about PAs
This is the key issue in a two tier health system
Labour needs to tackle it head on 😡
Doctor quality matters a lot.
Norwegian study finds that replacing one of the 5% worst general practitioners with one of average quality generates a social benefit of $9.05 million.

@pa_StephenNash The thing is, all those pilots went to flight school.
Just like all doctors go to medical school.
You don’t need do become a neurosurgeon to treat a STEMI, and you don’t need to do stunts to fly an airbus.
But you do need to go to flight/ medical school.
👍
