In January 2023 Sunak promised he would make 5000 more NHS hospital beds available by winter.

Since then, there has been a *decrease* of 2,675 beds.

The assault on the NHS from this government is deliberate, orchestrated & absolutely relentless.

“I lost colleagues whilst I was working each day and the government has barely acknowledged that fact… People were dying in front of us & the morgues were full. We had no body bags left in the trust.”

Please listen to this heart-rending testimony 😔

Michael Marmot tells @AndrewMarr9 Tory government’s austerity policy “fits with hypothesis of malicious harm.” ie government was deliberately trying to destroy the NHS.
Approximately 300,000 excess deaths since 2010 attributed to austerity (excluding unnecessary Covid-19 deaths)

How the hell could a roomful of journalists just stand there whilst the Prime Minister proudly boasted about his Governments record on the NHS? If you think this bull**** needs calling out please RT this widely

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

The lack of available NHS dentists in this country should be a national scandal.

Please RT if you agree.

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

This is terrible news. @CochraneUK is the world-leading, gold standard in evidence-based medicine. Why on earth would the government not ensure its funding continues??? Such a loss & false economy.

Did you know the word ‘junior’ in Junior Doctor doesn’t mean young or unqualified

It’s simply the term for any doctor who is not yet a consultant or experienced GP

That includes this 40 year old who’s been a doctor for over 10 years

Please RT if you think everyone should know

#Measles is a viral illness that can be serious and sometimes fatal. It's important to get 2 doses of the #MMR vaccine for lifelong protection. Contact your GP practice to book an appointment for a catch up jab if needed.

What an outstanding thread on why NHS consultants are striking. Thank you, Claire 👇

Remember when they fined a 66yr old man £100 for meeting friends in an allotment to get some respite from his loneliness?!

His statement was a heart wrenching read 💔

They really didn’t give a shit about us did they?! Just partied away, mocking us & taking us all for fools!

Brazilian rainforest felled - soya grown - shipped to the UK - fed to horribly abused chickens - shit goes in the river - river becomes ecologically dead - children swim and get sick - the world dies . . . it’s broken . But if there were any will we could fix it . We need to motivate that will . Now .

Blaming GPs for lack of availability is like blaming the checkout worker at Tesco for lack of till staff

There is a reason the UK struggles to get appointments

The GPs are providing 20% more but with 7% fewer GPs

The Govt is responsible for the lack of 6000 extra GPs promised

Boys can get cancer from HPV virus too - penis, throat and anus . It’s not just cervix in women. Make sure the boys get their vaccines too. Pass it on! 🙏

[Professor Chris Whitty @CMO_England]

Before vaccines, diseases such as meningitis, tetanus, measles, diphtheria and polio killed or disabled many children and young people.

Effective vaccines massively reduced these risks.

Please take up NHS recommended vaccines- they protect children, young people and families.
