People need to give their head a wobble, why should people here have less? If doctors just have to travel a few miles down the road to get better pay, they will. And then what?

Another day, another NI fail. (The structures, not the people or place)

[Sara O'Neill 🐚 @SaraONeillArt]

People shaming or questioning workers on strike because they ‘could live on that wage.’ Jaysus. Not the point. If you want to retain these workers, pay them. And ask for a pay rise for yourself whilst you’re at it, don’t fall for the aul divide & conquer sh*te.

❓ Consultants! Have you received your ballot paper? We are texting members to check and remind them about the ballot - so if you get a text from BMA its genuine!

📱 You can reply and get help if your ballot has not arrived yet!

I was on @BBCr4today discussing the Doctors' pay disputes at 7:52

Doctors are ready to accept a credible offer that begins pay restoration and stops the exodus, but we will strike as long as is necessary - for ourselves, our service, and our patients.

🚨REVEALED: For weeks we've captivated audiences with this trailer for a new drama about the harsh realities of temporary housing.

Here's the twist: this isn't drama, it’s real life.

At least 34 children have died in temporary accommodation since 2019.

[John Burn-Murdoch @jburnmurdoch]

Critics of striking medics argue that everyone is suffering at the moment. But doctors & nurses have had it worse.

Recent inflation has taken the average UK worker’s real wages 2.5% below their 2009 level, but earnings are down 13% for nurses and 24% (!) for junior doctors.

There has been much weeping and rending of garments about this strike among NHS system leaders, on the grounds of the risk of harm to patients.

[Therese Scullion @ThereseScullion]

@nwrees @DrLucyLu_ Unfortunately not true but a common misconception. £119K after 19 years as consultant, which is about 30-35years after graduating with massive student debt. And not everyone becomes a consultant.

[Therese Scullion @ThereseScullion]

@C_Fitz_ My FT childcare in Belfast the same price, going to be £1080 per month from April, 10% off second child. No family in position to help in regular way. Considering no longer working full time. Adding to shortage of doctors 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Therese Scullion @ThereseScullion]

@C_Fitz_ Haha I love this!

[Therese Scullion @ThereseScullion]

What a pile of sh**

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

There's a buzz within the NHS improvement community about these "6 improvement lessons to apply as winter pressures bite". It's about applying systems thinking & improvement to big challenges, not short term fixes: https://t.co/nBYO0EJzpx TY @PennyPereira1 @DrAmarShah #QITwitter

I’m amazed that there are still NHS trusts that don’t offer these services at night!!

#hospitalatnight teams are the backbone of ward care in NI hospitals. As med Reg I find their help and support invaluable! #h@n

[Nehal Yemula @DoctorYemula]

I’m amazed that some NHS trusts offer these services at night.

A real dream for a junior doctor who can concentrate on reviewing the sick patients during the night.

@NiamhCuffe @marathonbcm Congratulations Niamh that’s amazing!!
