A thread of the Tories' worst moments...🧵

@Lover_Of_Neuro Completely agree, once I went to print a handover sheet from the Dr’s office in the middle of the ward (no where near a patient! And was patronisingly told off by the nurse for not being ‘bare below the elbows’ this was then escalated to the consultant! What on earth

Never has someone been so unfit for public office as Suella Braverman.

At a time when we need those in Government to bring communities together, she revelled in fanning the flames of division.

The Tories are out of ideas and out of time, there should be a General Election now.

@Xeon4f145d96s1 Does this also include poppy badges? Well…. If the point is not to display political views then they should all be banned no?

How has this guideline even come anywhere near being published?? Yet again highlighting the gender divide in recipients of healthcare in this pitiful country.

[Catherine Roy @catherineroyuk]

Shame on you @NICEComms. Agreeing that healthcare professionals can offer pseudoscientific pain relief to women in labour is nothing short of a scandal. Shame on you.

@marksandspencer Thank you

@marksandspencer does your Mozarella and pesto wrap contain pasteurised Mozarella?? I can’t see anything to state otherwise on the label but need to be sure! Thanks

@PerinatalBirder As I got to the ‘ring of fire’ I let out a loud yelp in pain. MW told me to stop ‘screaming’ and push instead. If I wasn’t so focused on conserving my energy, I would’ve given her a piece of my mind!

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

In 14 years as a doctor I’ve never known such horrific conditions. Patients dying on trolleys with zero dignity. Or screaming & moaning in corridors. Dickensian overcrowding, total implosion. Despair. Weeping staff. Abject misery.

Do you care at all @Jeremy_Hunt? @SteveBarclay?

[Shivani Misra @ShivaniM_KC]

I discussed this with my good friend & colleague & it makes so much sense that I’m sharing it:

Medical school applications are designed to favour high achievers, type A personality types, people with perfectionist traits, high standards. Then it trains these individuals
