I struggle to understand how there isn’t widespread alarm and panic in medical leadership about the hardships young doctors face and their bleak future. I cannot believe the lack of discussion and planning around neighbourhoods and postgraduate medical education reforms over the

Clearly there is a nursing requirement for patients in plastic surgery. Mobility, hygiene, wound healing, graft viability, dressings (type/size/application etc!!), patient education, and patient advocacy all of which become increasingly important with increasing patient

This is why Resident doctors in England are taking a stand against the Government - it’s time to pay us what we're worth. Support us on the picket lines 📢 25 to 30 July #PayRestoration #DoctorsStrike https://t.co/87dxjd5juW

Doctors currently earn £18.62 an hour, they are asking for £22.67 an hour. Their assistants get paid £24.45 an hour. How can @wesstreeting defend paying doctors less than their assistants?

As BMA Deputy Chair @ERunswickBMA rightly says, moving a fully qualified doctor from £18.62/hr to £22.67/hr is entirely reasonable; especially over a few years. These doctors make critical decisions every single day. But @wesstreeting doesn’t think they’re worth even that.

A doctor caring for you at 7pm in A&E earns just £18.62/hr They’re asking to move to £22.67/hr (not even all at once) to undo years of pay erosion. @wesstreeting could stop the strikes by offering a credible path to restore drs pay. The choice is his. https://t.co/Z79rtEhfmh

A dr on TikTok posted her payslip saying she earned £2.5k after tax and the comments?? One said she’s being greedy and another said £2.5k is a lot of money.

It's always weird to see these bizarre claims that the committee is "hard left" or "corbynistas". This is a wave of young people aged typically between 23-35 who see Broken Britain for what it is. Raising rent, raising house prices, raising energy prices, raising leisure

Doctors: Can you fix 15 years of pay erosion so we can keep treating patients? Wes: No. But I’ll improve your “working conditions.” You mean the hospitals where: – There are no desks or rest spaces – Staff rooms are storage closets – No training jobs after years of exams – PAs

The results are in: we have a clear mandate to strike. More than 90% of you who voted in our ballot, voted YES. You’ve made it clear: enough is enough. Our fight for full #PayRestoration for resident doctors in England continues.

I think £32k is a terrible salary in 2024. It shows how wages have stagnated for over a decade, economic growth has been poor, and prices continue to soar. We’ve be conditioned to think anything above £30k is a good salary, it simply is not

🧵I’m reading lots of very well constructed threads by women trying to explain to men why crashing any conversation about male violence against women with “#NOTALLMEN” is unhelpful and exhausting… Trouble is, the kind of guys who leap in with #notallmen (and I used to be one)…

Let me help with some calculations: 1) 40hrs a week minimum wage pay £24k a year 2) 40 hrs F1 contract £32k a year Interest only payment on loan of £100k £7,300 GMC and Indemnity £500 ALS £350 Relocation cost £250 Opportunity cost of 5 years - priceless So a not

26-year-old Kyle Clifford is being hunted by police. It’s a fast moving situation and there’s a lot we don’t know. But there is one thing that we DO know. And it’s depressingly, devastatingly familiar. Three woman are dead. They were killed in their home. A mum, she was 61, and
