@dredbeveridge @BEHMHTNHS Congratulations. Well deserved

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@goldstone_tony @trussliz @RishiSunak @nadhimzahawi @SteveBarclay @Jeremy_Hunt Unfortunately from talking to friends they just see NHS pensions as being a golden handshake. I cannot see things changing until there is a storm. I hope I am wrong though Tony and keep trying.

@Dkaitiff @cruncherwax This is biggest disincentive to extra work when for most FT consultants the marginal tax rate for it will be 63.25%. That’s ignoring cliff edge for 30hours free nursery & childcare vouchers which could lead to negative take home pay. Make it 45%>100k

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@cruncherwax A lot of consultants are caught in the 60 %plus bracket which is really unfair. How about changing this if we are not going to be given a good pay rise.

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

I'm a doctor. Current NHS pension taxation rules are unfairly hitting senior doctors hard with many forced to retire early/reduce hours. This crisis cant go on.

@jeffsmithetc as my MP, please will you attend @TheBMA pensions event on Weds 6 July

[Dr Tony Goldstone @goldstone_tony]

DISGRACEFUL: Example doctor👇 This is what @RishiSunak wants to do to your pension on Wednesday by removing indexation to the LTA (which may never return).

(Yet another) stealth theft of your pension worth between £187k-£303k.

Feeling underavlued? Pls RT if you agree scandalous

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@goldstone_tony @BMA_Pensions @BMA_GP I am sorry to say but if this is the case then it may be time to retire from the NHS. I would imagine if something is not done within the next 3 months as you have to hand in 3 months notice, people will have to consider this option

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@MarkLRuffalo I rather like this metaphor. I may use it. Regards DK

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@dredbeveridge Sleeping problems?

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@drbenwhite China doctors wear them. Why have we not been properly issued them?

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@MarkLRuffalo With the limited options for severe tinnitus, this must be investigated further.

@goldstone_tony @sajidjavid @RishiSunak @BMA_Pensions @TheBMA @DavidGWrigley @Vish_Sharm @aroradrn @NHSMillion @RoyLilley @cgps_gp @sbattrawden @JujuliaGrace @parthaskar I don't think they understand that when we go through the 40k that it's just not worthwhile to do any extra work. Or maybe they do understand and are just ignoring it.

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@helengilburt I think that people and government feel that patients with mental health problems don't get better. This is obviously not the case though.

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@t_hewson @seriabraham Wow! This is finally here. Well done !

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@EsraaAbohatab @RamkissonR1 @LSCFT @PennineMedEd @seriabraham @DrAnkushSinghal @burlinson_sarah @MichealKurkar Congratulations Esraa . Good luck in your new career direction.

@goldstone_tony @doctor_oxford We are a very confused liberalised capitalist country. Best we start moving forward instead of the ongoing paradox

I think its VITALLY important to point out these are infections after the FIRST DOSE ONLY and that this government is not listening to @pfizer and @who about spacing of second dose.

It is of PARAMOUNT importance to vaccinate all eligible heath workers in 2nd dose in next week

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@BorisJohnson You need to vaccinate all medical staff properly ASAP. 10 percent of NHS staff getting Covid now spells disaster, not to mention pregnant staff who may stop working .

[Dr Daniel Kaitiff @Dkaitiff]

@BorisJohnson Well done on getting this through. A stroke of genius placing an end date on this. 1 poisoned chalice cured.
