So true

[Mark Green @DrVoles]

Well this is embarrassing.
I didn't realise you could treat viral illnesses more easily if you saw them early.
Best get that magic wand ready then, eh?

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

It seems crazy that this needs to be pointed out but it’s true.

@RhiPJ @theipaper I know that. But I did take it to mean no one gets discriminated against, whether you have children or not. Anyway, I see we will never remotely agree on this, have a nice day x

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@DrSdeG Needs must eh. But I agree, really odd!

@rachali79 @ZoeJardiniere You’ve never sounded more Canadian Rach 😂😂

[Dr Haseena Wazir @DrHWazir]

50 people a day are dying because of delays in A&E, analysis used by senior doctors has found.

The annual winter crisis in the NHS has turned into a full blown national emergency.

How has this been normalised and allowed to happen every single year?

@DoctorAngry Yes, it’s annoying isn’t it

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@RhiPJ @theipaper Ahh cool, you’ve just contradicted your previous tweet about us having different but equal needs. That’s fine, I didn’t really expect you to have a consistent argument x

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@TfL is it just me or has the contactless website been unavailable forever?? I need to check some journeys I think I was mischarged for on my contactless card. How do I do this without the website?

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@RhiPJ @theipaper I don’t know why you can’t understand my point that no one should suffer. All I want is for it to be equal for everyone. Single or partnered, childfree or parent, I don’t care. I just don’t see why any of those groups get priority for any reason. I even pointed out the solution.

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@RhiPJ @theipaper That’s exactly my point, no one should have priority because no one has more right than anyone else, whether you have kids or not. What you should really care about is having access to affordable childcare in the holidays, not making childfree colleagues suffer.

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

[Parody RCGP @Parody_RCGP]

@AmandaPritchard So why did you cripple the flu campaign which was to be delivered by GPs instead to vacc centres at double the cost with less coverage?

Why are you acting like winter is unexpected? Do you not own a calendar?

FFS. You think anyone believes your glossy media campaign?

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

So so sad, I’m so sorry. The NHS is SUCH a mess right now 😭

[Dr Dolittle @DocDoLi]

I’ve taken a couple of months to make the decision but I’ve decided, for my mental health and overall wellbeing, I’m leaving the NHS in August

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@RhiPJ @theipaper Ok sure, as long as you accept that both our needs are equal (which your article didn’t imply). I wouldn’t say your choice to have a child (which obviously then needs caring for) gives you any priority over my choice not to do so.

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@AnneKearns17 @theipaper @RhiPJ Exactly! You know nothing about what’s going on in those people’s lives as to why they need their holidays then.

[Dr Phil Hammond 💙 @drphilhammond]

It think we need both better palliative care in the UK and choice in dying. They are not mutually exclusive.

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@charleyhelene_ Become a GP. It’s not an issue for us, thanks to us valuing work/life balance 😊

[Anita 💙 @dr_anitar]

@wearejames @TheO2 It was a fantastic gig. So happy to hear Laid- it’s mine and my fiancé’s song! It’ll be our first dance song at our wedding which will be exactly 6 weeks from when we danced to it with you on Saturday 🎉🎉
