The 🇬🇧 medical regulator has just approved dual PH & PC training 🎉
Huge congratulations to my colleagues @FPH public health & primary care group who have worked tirelessly to make this a reality
@AceGPTraining https://t.co/hJcXsco8lF LTCs ep greatly resonated, esp training to be "FP10 doctors", most drugs having high NNT, only scratching the surface with brief lifestyle advice, and the 6 pillars. Are UK systems ready for time-intensive, but efficacious, interventions?
@PoliticsJOE_UK Government want to make it more difficult to strike - cynical changing of goalposts in response to action they dislike. Insightful comment by Hislop
#PayRestoration
From today, some employers, seniors and rota coordinators will tell you things that are not true.
Some are clumsy mistakes, some are attempts to undermine your will to strike.
The media will attack you and your reps.
Here are some mistruths you may hear:
🧵
@Peston A lot of criticism of Peston's statements here, without adequate rebuttal. It is a well-established principle that matching wages to inflation risks a wage-price spiral. Even if the government used QE, this would not solve the underlying inflation problem. Comments?
@hayleymagill My memory is a bit hazy, but there were nowhere near the level of protests by players and fans in Russia, vs. Qatar. Latter widely reported to rely heavily upon migrant workers to build, with sign num of deaths, however, which many are appalled about
@SoSowemimo@airfrance Terrible conduct. Pls. also be aware that even in UK many flights recently cancelled at short notice (not sure about food/water situation) but the fact your flight has majority black passengers is suspicious
@slbsamantha@teozka@UKHSA@BBCRadio4 "Men who have sex with men" (MSM) is a well-established term in sexual health, focussing upon the route of transmission of diseases of interest, rather than the sexual orientation of a person
@DocLasker Interesting interpretation. I thought it was valuable to allow review of material, and taking responsibility for one's education.
Many agree with what you say. Perhaps homework has benign intentions, but has snowballed into a reflection of our workaholic society.
@mark_darcy7@VictoriaCoren Agreed. Was not aware of her two co-detainees' detention and they also deserve to have their experiences shared - if they do wish.
An appalling title for an article.
No-one on the side of humanity is having a “good war”. The notion that this is about careers is also deeply distasteful. @spectator should change title & apologise to anyone (esp Ukrainians) upset by this seeming celebration of the war.
It is the firm view of the Commissioners that the introduction of a Strategy and Policy Statement – enabling the Government to guide the work of the Commission – is inconsistent with the role that an independent electoral commission plays in a healthy democratic system (2/4)
@drphiliplee1 Why on earth did their government not focus efforts to vaccinate their older population? They need it the most, and their vaccination would have led to a lower rate of people requiring hospitalisation! My prayers are with them all.
