I suggest that you strongly reconsider the choice of words.
The problem is not communication but a system that allows unqualified people to see children & the undifferentiated.

To stop this happening again, we need interim application of the BMA scope & RCGP recommendations.

@LotsOfTreesHere There’s a variety Comfrey Bocking 14 bred to be sterile and therefore non invasive- it has pink flowers like this- but it would have needed to come in as a root cutting/ fragment in soil or compost

[Mike Henley 🤨 @trentconsultant]

Yep, I trained for 19 years, I have an additional 21 years of consultant experience. I’m on the top of the consultant pay scale. Seeing me with complex cancer, stone or fertility issue costs the taxpayer £18 before tax. A cardiology consultant saving your life at 3am £94. Bargain.

This is terrible PR from @DHSCgovuk

You need to fund and fix social care to improve hospital conditions for patients - that and reverse the bed closures of the last decade

Are your specialist teams equipped to do this?

[Nicola Pearson @N_K_Pearson]

@Shr_Nottingham And occupy double figure percentages of those with MFFD pts… Reopen the community reenablement beds

“Standout winners by a country mile” 😂

Are you sure?! 🤔👇🏼

Day one pay in central London:

🔸Newly qualified Doctor:
£20.36 / hour

🔹Newly qualified Physician’s Assistant:
£28.86 / hour

That’s 41.75% higher pay for the assistant to a doctor Vs an actual doctor.

[James Steen @BMA_James_Steen]

Realistic and reasonable about what the country can afford?!😂

You’re paying assistants to doctors more than you’re pay doctors;

Day one pay in central London:

🔸Newly qualified Doctor:
£20.36 / hour

🔹Newly qualified Physician’s Assistant:
£28.86 / hour

That’s 41.75% more.

@ShaunLintern The plain truth is that resident Drs are not expensive to train. We take a cohort of the smartest people in the country and they give us 24/7 service doing complex work with great skill for poor pay. It’s just that we - the people of the UK - want that service on the cheap.

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep
Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications

This should also be banned

Influence is being bought in Govt

Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy

🚨 Wes Streeting published his WhatsApp exchanges with disgraced Mandelson.

They show Mandelson was privately advising Streeting on pharma policy, lining up tech company meetings & shaping decisions about YOUR healthcare.

We need full transparency. Share if you agree!

[Protect Kamala Harris ✊ @DisavowTrump20]

Barack Obama hasn't been President in almost 10 years. MAGA racists cannot get past the fact that a Black man was President, won the Nobel Peace Prize, and will be remembered in history as one of the great leaders of the 21st Century.

RETWEET if you love President Obama! 💙

[Dr Steve Taylor @DrSteveTaylor]

It’s not the loan that’s the issue - it’s the interest on the loan which means students effectively will pay double for their university

This is a scandal @RachelReevesMP and you know it

Wes knew it and many @UKLabour MPs know it

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

Nigel Farage has kindly asked we stop sharing this video of him talking about why we should privatise the NHS 💙

You know what to do!

For anyone who would like to hear Mark Carney’s outstanding Davos speech in full here it is. This is what true global leadership looks like.

Canada should be immensely proud today, because they are leading the fight back when others dare not.

“We paid £80 billion back in PFI debts for JUST £12 billion of assets.”

Private finance is and will always be a rip off and the government must drop plans to reintroduce it into our NHS. #HouseOfCommonsEvent

'Experts' with no mandatory experience in the specialty!

Sums up NHS in 2025.

[Kit Yates @Kit_Yates_Maths]

A few doctors striking for a few days will not be what causes the collapse of the NHS.

Years of chronic underfunding and mismanagement will do that for you.

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

🧵/ Today a damning parliamentary report on the state of palliative care services in England was published.

Services are patchy, underfunded & “ill-equipped” to address end-of-life needs.

Bereavement support is “frequently inaccessible.

The palliative care workforce is in a “critical” situation”.

[Dr Asif Qasim MA PhD FRCP @DrAsifQasim]

…but @wesstreeting is still offering below inflation pay rises to resident doctors with huge debts - it’s the opposite of pay restoration
