Back on duty! Lovely day for it 😎 @NEImmediateCare

A third of resident doctors are facing unemployment next month. We’re bringing the issue of insufficient training places and job insecurity into our ongoing #PayRestoration dispute with the Government. Read our statement in full:

@parthaskar Would you be happy to get on a plane if this was your pilot?

Why do politicians push this idea that medicine is a ‘vocation’ as if it somehow justifies not remunerating Doctors adequately? Telling Doctors they shouldn’t expect to be paid well for their vocation reinforces exploitation. Valuing meaningful work should reward, not punish!

Doctors play a vital role at key moments in our lives. They care for us. They cure us. They do not take the decision to strike lightly. They are striking for an extra £4 per hour for first year doctors with £100,000 student debt. The government needs to move on this. Solidarity

@drmattuk I read the rest of the review coloured by Prof Leng’s forward which I thought was exceptional Not least because she is quite clear that resident training is broken and she’s the first in a position of true authority to admit it Powis and Whitty ignore this at their peril

Some sensible first steps by Leng et al.

@DrEilidhMaria @wesstreeting @Daily_Express It's finally here - why I think people need to stand with the doctors, not Wes Streeting https://t.co/7hHV1UEo8X

Most doctors now have no confidence in the GMC. So today we announce the BMA's NEW register for all doctors. Sign up today to show your support for change. https://t.co/XzxfPv3a6i #BMAARM25

Resident doctors should not be instructed to sign-off potentially unsafe prescriptions.   Today, @DrPhilBanfield has written to Mark Hackett, Interim Chief Executive @UHP_NHS, to raise serious concerns about unsafe working arrangements at the trust.   Read our letter in full 👇

Wes Streeting, the health secretary, is expected to accept Leng’s recommendation and instigate the change, which could lead to physician associates being renamed “physician assistants” or “doctors’ assistants”. https://t.co/8ZbuHiMN6n
