@isitsleepytime There is no financial penalty for these non-clinical entities. They are allowed to continue to make dangerous decisions without oversight, the NHS management lacks effective regulation. All the while ineffective regulation chokes the clinical.

@SVG__Collection Depends what you mean my chemistry. If you mean mixing a ton of things and the whole thing bubbling over in a beautiful mess then Fleetwood Mac.

@BeccaFarrugia @doctor_dru_ Worth noting that you will just get North East and you’ll be able to rank where you go every 6 months. So yes you’ll move about the region a lot but you can live wherever you want and chances are will be at Newcastle at least for one rotation.

@Louisdebernard @NicholasChrimes @TheRealAlMay The better question is should you do this and what are you trying to achieve?

[Simon @SJCowell]

@Louisdebernard @NicholasChrimes @TheRealAlMay Yes.

@EllieBriegal Aeropress Go, Timemore U Caffietiere or a V60 next. Buy a good coffee grinder before buying an expensive machine. This is the key to letting everyone know you belong on that spinny chair.

@DVLAgovuk as an NHS doctor I cannot believe how poor your service treats patients. There is neither accountability nor empathy.

@hlnewey If you don’t feel out of your depth as an F1 then you lack insight. One of the harder years in training. Be kind to yourself, smile and chat with the people you work with, ask for help early and try to leave the job at the door. You’ll be grand!

This BBC coverage and the opening of Coldplays set did not get the attention it deserved.

One more week to watch Glastonbury sets on BBC iPlayer before they disappear forever

@rachelgemma90 Didn’t our profession recently eliminate the term junior doc?

@FestivalMedic @feelmybicep shutting down Block 9 with CHROMA AV was a special moment.

@RishiSunak You make it so, so difficult not to utterly despise you and your party.

@marinadpol Newcastle is an incredible city, Tynemouth 20 mins from the city centre by Metro and beautiful countryside right up into Northumberland. Definitely sign up to things and enjoy the city before worrying about the Medicine!

@DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting WLI already exists and it’s usually the tax, AA, childcare etc that prevents Consultants from taking it up rather than the actual locum rate.
