I defy anyone to read this extraordinarily candid, harrowing & heartbreaking account of the truth of a crippled NHS oncology system & not burn with rage for how this government has decimated the NHS & failed NHS patients.
Please, please read & share 😔

About Me:
➡️ I am a cardiology consultant / professor @UHNM_NHS
➡️ i was from a working class background, i went to a state comprehensive. My dad left school at 16, mum at 12. I am the first / only member of my family to receive a higher education. I received a student grant to go to @UniofOxford. I left med school with little debt.
I could not afford to train as a doctor now.
The view of #Edinburgh from the #RedArrows as the team performed a flypast to mark the Presentation of the Honours of #Scotland to Their Majesties The King and Queen this afternoon.
.@SteveBarclay won’t use Acas to settle the doctors’ strikes because they might come up with a fair settlement that is more than he is prepared to pay. He prefers not to negotiate in the hope of breaking @TheBMA. Prepare for more strikes😖 https://t.co/zI2YzQCDQ7
