🚨 Groundbreaking in Leeds!

Surgeons at Leeds Teaching Hospitals made history, removing a skull base tumour through the eye socket using a minimally invasive technique.

Ruvimbo Kaviya, 40, is the UK’s first patient to benefit from this innovative surgery by Mr. Asim Sheikh & Mr. Jiten Parmar.

This must be tweeted every Halloween. I don’t make the rules

Minimum wage up, workers rights strengthened, NHS reform and investment, free breakfast clubs. Train companies into public ownership, VAT on private schools, WFA for the poorest, no increase on tax for working people.

This is the @UKLabour I voted for.

Just look at these WhatsApps from a private school parents group…

If only the wealthy would mobilise this well to help others

Not just themselves.

His daughters obviously will…

But he’s not talking about those kids

He’s talking about ours.

I have just finished another set of incredibly difficult weekend nights as the A&E consultant incharge.

Some thoughts:

The NHS no longer provides unscheduled care - we provide treatment. Care is with dignity - that's impossible for our patients in corridors.

The model of acute care is not working or sustainable. We need a completely different approach - with long term investment in prevention and community care

111 need to change risk thresholds as far too many come to a&e when they don't need to.

There needs to be alternative pathways to get care overnight for those who don't have accidents or emergencies. A&E shouldn't be anything and everything

Staff are broke - supporting staff is just as vital as looking after patients

This government have totally decimated our the NHS. They are the ones who should be apologising to our patients not our staff.

Hundreds are dying each week because of lack of hospital capacity and corridor care in a&e, yet it's not on the news and no public uproar. As staff and patients we have accepted the unacceptable.

Everyone needs to know the reality of what is happening - so that politicians offer a different solution and patients get the care they deserve. Sadly most of the public have no idea of what is genuinely going on.

And finally, a post night fry up is the best antidote for the stresses of the weekend. Goodnight!

On an early train to London watching the early morning mist gradually lift.

I was greeted at Manchester Piccadilly train station by this message & campaign.

I love trains & the planet and will always choose over the car when possible. But message jars when set against a context of recent govt decisions & announcements which reduce travel choices & prioritise unsustainable options.

You can’t pull the rug, paper over the cracks and just tell people to be a hero. We have to make the sustainable alternative the reliable, affordable, accessible & delightful option.

Reflecting on a wonderful study day I attended at @royalmarsdenNHS two weeks ago. So many resources to look back through and lots to consider to implement in my current practice. It was also amazing to hear from their Specialist Geri-Onc MDT and the amazing work they are doing!

Deeply ashamed to live in a country where baby formula and basic household goods are encased in anti-theft packaging.

When are we going to address the reason parents are having to steal baby milk and support them instead of criminalising them.

@physioabbie Nothing at all to feel ashamed of Abbie ❤️ You should be so proud of yourself, you’ve come so far and it takes a lot to be vulnerable and share your journey.
Beautiful photo and drawing as well! Very talented xx

We are right behind NHS consultants and all the other staff who are fighting for fair pay and working conditions and in turn the future of the NHS.

Please RT if you are too.

I hadn't realised that most MPs can claim £5500 per child on expenses, for up to three children. But it certainly puts the two-child benefit cap in perspective.

No spoilers, but this is the cleverest football advert I've ever seen.
