@candmclub Adults only now, stayed 58 nights Hebden Bridge in last 4yrs, never seen any issues with children. Our small grandchildren live nearby and love to come for lunch/tea in motorhome with us, so sad this will no longer be possible. This is likely to be our last stay here.
Many people seem to think that general practice, as a discipline, is easy.
The longer I practised as a GP, the more I became aware of the uncertainties of medicine.
To fully own a problem with a patient, hold that risk, and see it through carries a huge weight of responsibility
NHS staff are desperate and patients have experienced untold disruption, but the Government refuses to lift a finger to negotiate a compromise to stop further chaos.
This is a Government that’s clocked off for Christmas, leaving NHS staff picking up the pieces.
Disgraceful.
The NHS survived this year because staff absorbed the consequences of decisions they didn’t make,chaos they didn’t create.
The blunt message from this year is the NHS is led by someone who isn’t clever enough, experienced enough and is too cocky by half. https://t.co/pzUr9HJ9yC
Now we know why Rishi Sunak refuses to negotiate with NHS staff.
He wants the strikes to go ahead, so he can blame doctors and nurses for his failure.

I'm only a humble ED doc but I can't help thinking that the problem in our EDs isn't caused by patients, it's caused by political failure. Last time I looked it wasn't patients with hiccups in my corridors, it was sick elderly patients who we couldn't get into a hospital bed

Imagine you’re waiting for ice cream. 🍦
There’s one pro scooping — fast, smooth, efficient.
Now she’s replaced by 3 helpers who sort of know what they’re doing.
They spill more, take longer, and keep asking for help.
That’s what’s happening inside the NHS.
Welcome to queuing theory.
@SKinnock This is nasty bullying talk reminiscent of Jeremy Hunt, Steve Barclay etc. I had hoped for better from you, @wesstreeting and the rest of the Labour party. I am so disappointed in you all.
selective emphasis determines what the public ‘thinks about’, rather than what they ‘think’.
>Only 4% of us will be using the NHS at any time.
Most will think they've had a positive experience.
>The other 96% will think about the NHS, and it's broken. https://t.co/Ou252HRN75
