Our syst review on hospital transfers from prison now online https://t.co/PSSfy0j928 Little/no progress in E&W since 2009 Bradley Report, minimal evidence internationally. Clinicians won't be surprised but we thought it important to highlight once again @rcpsychForensic@russwebt
I’m an oncologist and I love my job. But I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing our patients with cancer and I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing its workforce. https://t.co/Liv26cn8Or #ConsultantsStrike
Dear 🇬🇧,
The fight for our NHS continues over the next 48hrs with #ConsultantsStrike, their 1st in nearly 50yrs! Our senior docs could be earning 4x more abroad but stay here for you, losing 35% pay since ‘08. Stand with them and all NHS staff against this corrupt govt!

1. Tomorrow i will be supporting the NHS #ConsultantsStrike
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.
I am a NHS consultant. I am financially comfortable, in a job I love, so why am I striking tomorrow?
Answer: Because the next generation will not be able to live off what I do today. The juniors that will become these consultants know this and are leaving already.
Why? 🧵 👇

Tonight, the community have won. The application has been withdrawn.
The Prime Minister blaming Junior doctors for hospital waiting lists is one of the most despicable things he’s said
& for the record he’s offered them a crappy real terms pay cut
If like me you stand with the junior doctors who sacrificed so much to keep us safe RT this widely
