Dear MPs

As an a&e dr, I’m asking for your help

Please do a shift at your local A&E and see the reality of what’s happening to our NHS.

Not a photoshopped PR stunt but a chance to witness reality of our crumbling NHS

Then demand change.

Pls Retweet to help make this happen

[EMTA @EMTAcommittee]

Currently the RCEM President is elected by UK Fellows only. The other Officers of the College (The Dean, Two Vice Presidents, VP Policy, VP Membership, Treasurer) are appointed by Council

RCEM are seeking review on this process and request an EMTA position. Thoughts welcome.

@Amanwy @SianCaerdydd @DafyddTrystan Sustainable transport nor charging are the answer for those staff who work out of hours e.g A&E. We arrive on site say 4pm and can’t park near our relevant department, then finish at 1am and have to walk in isolation to a deserted car park - it’s dangerous.
