What is the point of letting brain drain of UK trained doctors to other countries (34%) and encouraging brain drain of doctors from other countries 🤷🏽‍♂️ Height of complete lack of understanding of workforce planning 🤦🏻 https://t.co/NtciCJvwon

Ban doctors strikes Highly objectionable message from the Conservative Leader @KemiBadenoch Shows no compassion No respect No understanding of the reality

Interesting & innovative Debt forgiveness Costs covered for all exams Is he really sympathetic or a ploy to avoid the real issue? 🤷🏽‍♂️

The IMGs need support and friendship. The Great Western Hospital at Swindon have set up a super example of mentorship and a buddy system. Congratulations to their team

We must campaign for reforming the PLAB exams. The GMC is making this a commercial platform to fill its coffers. Time to campaign to tailor the exams to the job requirements in the NHS @BIDAUK @BAPIOUK @appne_official @APPSUK @dauk

#BMAARM2025 Motion to cancel Palantir’s NHS Federated Data Platform PASSED ✅ Proposed by BIDA EC member @FareedAlQusous The BMA will now lobby govt to scrap the contract, citing threats to trust, transparency & human rights, and calling for public, safe, ethical alternatives.

The GMC at its best. You can make up your own mind. GMC earned £25 million in 2024 At present there are about 15,000 PLAB passed doctors in the UK

When this doctor started medical school, unemployment was unfathomable. Now it is a stark reality. Why are we training doctors to have them unemployed, moving abroad, or leaving medicine entirely?

What a great plan 🤷🏽‍♂️ Freeze funding for courses for all nurses and midwives Get rid of local aspiring students Get more nurses from India and Philippines Job done https://t.co/8IFce93qSe

Martha’s rule is an eye opener to all clinicians. Must work as a team. Listen to other clinicians, nurses Include parents, family in decision making Respond to your patient’s clinical picture https://t.co/n8sqQeDc5M

Physician Associates to be renamed Excellent suggestion expected to be made in the Leng review. I don’t think we should have the word ‘physician’ or ‘medical’ attached to their name. Why not call them ‘Health Assistants’ ? https://t.co/GCAvX6r81P

Structural racism is a killer. Can’t believe 70% of Bangladeshi and Pakistani families live in poverty. Is deprivation the root cause?

Even the Academy of Royal Medical Colleges recognises the issue with PAs and AAs. BIDA had campaigned for a review a year ago. This must happen now

Is this how the GMC justifies itself becoming a regulator for AAs and PAs? Worth watching @BIDAUK https://t.co/7x2okX0QaN

The current system seems more stressful as compared to when I came to the UK as a foreign trained medical graduate in the late eighties. Multiple rejections at interviews were quite common. Do we have a better solution?

I believe this is logical. I have always followed this rule but the GMC proved its hypocrisy and rascist attitudes extremely well in Dr Bawa Garba case. The Consultant got off scot free😡

The Chief guest was Christopher Gormley, Chief Sustainably officer, NHS. Great discussions. The Health Mela was attended by almost 500 people from the community @BIDAUK

It was such a pleasure attending the Preston Health Mela organised by the National Forum of Health and well being Lead by Prof Ramesh Gupta yesterday. The topic for discussion was “Sustainability in the NHS” @BIDAUK

GP training 15,000 applicants for 4000 places!! The government plans to increase training places to 6000 in 2031. What’s wrong here🤔 The RCGP and the government seem to ignore this enthusiasm. Should they not seriously plan to increase training places much sooner? @BIDAUK

So tragic but this is what happens in a broken healthcare system. We are all prospective patients and this could happen to anyone who is unlucky enough to fall ill. https://t.co/MMRHASoeMB
