So pleased with how this article with @TheDrMagazine @TheBMA has turned out. Click below to encounter the unique experiences of those FiY1 Doctors who joined the workforce prematurely to do their bit during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic

The NHS collapse - it has taken just 13 years - let’s retake a look at this from Channel 4 To blame Government Ministers, MPs & complicit NHS England leaders who have too much to lose (£) from speaking up They have nodded this disaster along with smiles

NHS - Virtual promises vs Reality 40 more hospitals = 5 5000 extra hospital beds = 2700 fewer 6000 more GPs = 2200 fewer 800 more ambulances = 51 Extra investment = below inflation = less Pay rises = below inflation = less ‘Use the private sector more’

Rishi Sunak said today at #PMQs that rising NHS waiting lists is down to industrial action. Well how about the last 13 years of rising waiting lists?

I think younger people looking at medical careers will probably look at this and think - that working hard, studying hard, training hard and sacrificing fundamentally means nothing in this country.

NHS bosses are warning of significant disruption to services across England with a 3-day junior doctor strike now underway. Thousands of appointments and operations are expected to be cancelled at a time of extraordinary hot weather. We spoke to Arjan Singh.

One in every five GP practices in England and Wales has closed since 2013, according to Sky News analysis of NHS data. Our data and forensics correspondent @Chesh analyses the pressures GPs are up against 👇

Auntie Shola said we're not moving on until you pronounce my name right.

Nurses work 12hr shifts; sell their days off; use food banks; pay £1300 a year to park. And 40,000 have left their jobs in a year. Tory MPs sit for 150 days; get subsidised food; claim travel & energy on expenses; get free parking & £2,200 pay rises. Back the nurses please.

There’s something seriously wrong when the second year medical student I’m teaching bedside to has to leave early to do an HCA shift, where her hourly rate is double mine. Her job to fund the qualification to practice medicine pays more than … the doctor she’s studying to be.

Today junior doctors in England will begin round 2 of our strike action for #PayRestoration Over the last 15 years, we’ve seen a real terms pay cut of over 26% - we’re fighting for that to be reversed👇 Stick together, fight together, win together.

NHS staff shortages in England could exceed 570,000 by 2036, leaked document warns

Re Junior Doctor strikes, the 'if you don't like it, get another job / go elsewhere' crowd need to rapidly learn that doctors are doing exactly that. It's (partly) why you struggle to see a GP, or it takes months to see a specialist. We simply do not have enough of them.

oh this is excellent! 🫶🪧🩺✊#JuniorDoctorsStrikes

Junior doctors in England will be taking strike action next week Whilst UK media stands by silently the Government is engaged in a shameless campaign to demonize them I will not stand by and watch that happen - here are some actual FACTS

There are so many issues with this article which seems to have been framed to fit the government agenda. Disappointing because we were explicit about a number of things. https://t.co/GnzK1694Kp

Five years of medical school costing ~£100,000 and this was my payslip after nearly one year of working in the NHS as a doctor. This is why we are striking. How can you survive on this whilst people’s lives are in your hands daily AND you’re understaffed?

It's so nice to hear from Steve. Here we were writing to him for the past 6-8 months and suddenly, Friday evening 10pm a mere 3 days before our strike he remembers that he's responsible for a health service and should probably talk to the doctors running it. #BMADoctorsVoteYes
