Super delighted to share our publication on UK national survey on Delivery room cuddles for preterm infants with 100% response rate.

Huge thanks to @EileenC_Foster @drpaulclarke Nancy, Manish & Olivia.

There is need for developing national guidance!

Birmingham NHS Trust paid £40.5m to a local company registered at a residential address, and run by a local solicitor, to funnel money to a Pakistani doctor training scheme without a contract and they never received a single invoice.

Despite continued warnings from @BMAResidents competition ratios for doctors looking to get on specialty training programmes have soared again this year.

Fresh data published by NHS England for 2025 shows a staggering 91,999 applications were made for 12,833 specialty training posts.

That means the overall ratio of applications to places has jumped from 4.68:1 last year to 7.17:1. [1/🧵]

It's always weird to see these bizarre claims that the committee is "hard left" or "corbynistas".

This is a wave of young people aged typically between 23-35 who see Broken Britain for what it is.

Raising rent, raising house prices, raising energy prices, raising leisure prices, raising taxes.

Meanwhile they look around and get told "not my job", "can't help you", "that exam's gonna be £1000", "cool wedding date, I'm still gonna need you to work", "sorry to hear your dad died... see you 9am".

None of them want any of that.

They want purchasing power comparable to the stake they should have in society.

They want to thrive.

And whilst money is frittered away to other causes, doctors have decided not to wait for the illusionary pot of gold at the end of the rainbow because there has always been another crisis and excuse to erode our pay and conditions to afford the next vanity project.

They're willing to use the mechanisms available to do so.

It's high time that other industries and young professionals re-invent the unions and political parties. Fucking grasp the nettle and take the power that can give them capital.

Re-invent the social contract.

And the media have a responsibility to be honest instead of their ludicrous spin. This 22-29% malarkey is another example of how the country is in a perpetual death spiral borne of tall-poppy syndrome. That figure was over 2-3 years and is actually approximately only ~2-4% in real terms.

Because if you're against the people who go through enormous competition, who focus on upskilling themselves for decades, and who actually go to work, over a ~2-4% real terms increase over 3 years (on a backdrop of 15 years of ~30% erosion) then you need to have a very fucking hard look at yourself and think what do you stand for and what do you want your country to be?

Do you hate aspiration?
Do you hate hard work?

If you do and if hard working doctors' anger fizzles out then next comes the toxic, contagious, corrosive, country destroying cloud of apathy that appears to be so pervasive today throughout the rest of society.

Because what will be the fucking point.

@BDChadwick Thanks Ben! Hope all is well in Southampton and thanks for all your help getting me here!!

@MartinSLewis @itvMLshow Ended up costing us money - We bought a home in the South East, over the current threshold, actually ended up paying money to get our money we put in the LISA back out!

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

Whatever your views on the Royal Family, we can surely all agree that they shouldn’t be profiting from our NHS.

[Paul Clarke @drpaulclarke]

Conclusion:
“The involvement of national bodies like @BAPM_Official in developing these guidelines could ensure that all preterm infants and their families benefit from these vital early interactions.”

Tell me my party’s social media team did not film a pensioner losing the winter fuel allowance wearing a solid gold @ROLEX?

[RCPCH @RCPCHtweets]

Every winter we see our services at breaking point due to illnesses caused by viruses such as RSV. An RSV vaccination programme could be transformative.

We need your help to persuade the UK Government to make this a reality.

Merry Christmas to all those working in the NHS today

Many staff in the NHS are grossly underpaid (even on Christmas day👇) but none more so than Junior Doctors who frequently graduate with >£100k debt

RT to support them & ask government to pay them ALL fairly #PayRestoration
