How has not one ‘journalist’ asked obvious follow up questions; - If that’s true, why haven’t you tabled these new jobs in an offer to the BMA since the last strikes months ago? - The NHS needs more doctors, there are doctors available, so why are you sitting on your hands?

I’m allowed to share an anonymised WhatsApp post. Nothing more to say, except I’m with you, resident doctor colleagues and other doctors working in the NHS. Enough is enough.

Telling the country “Stay at home” while his own team held parties behind closed doors.   They clapped for us when it was convenient. Then they underfunded us. Then they vilified us.   We are not the villains here. We are not “entitled.” We are not “greedy.”

That asking for our pay to be restored to 2008 levels—not raised, just restored—is somehow selfish?   And this, after everything we gave during the pandemic.   Do you remember? When PPE was so scarce we were wearing bin bags and swimming goggles?

RT @fletchjack: Right now doctors are applying for jobs in Aug 2026. Tens of thousands of these doctors will be turned away. No govt plan…

The exodus to Australia, NZ, and the US will carry on, or doctors will just leave healthcare entirely. Wes Streeting’s threats to Resident Doctors show he hasn’t read the room, or even seen the recent GMC survey. Continue to strike!

When you start rewarding those who destroyed primary care, you become part of the problem

Crypto is a rigged casino, and today’s events prove it beyond doubt. A single colossal BTC whale shorted at the peak, then, just minutes before the market-shattering crash, piled on millions more in shorts. At the very bottom of the drop, he closed 90% of his Bitcoin short and

The whole system is completely unfit for purpose, and I am angrier than ever even though I personally am securely in a HST programme with CCT approaching in the next few years. 🟡From the catastrophe of rotational training and portfolio-tickbox-assessment as a core concept of

Quickly updated my graphs for applicants/posts with the 2025 data released today. Please see comments for second set of CT1/ST1 specialties graphs.

Specialty training competition ratios for 2025 released. An awful day to be a doctor out of training or a medical student. Frozen progression is a further nail in the coffin of a career in medicine in the UK. https://t.co/gJAwr98zeQ

Bloody hell. This is NUTS The ONS say that "in London, the average home was not affordable for any household income decile". Utterly broken....

BIG NEWS - the largest-ever surveys of GI & colorectal trainees in the UK is in — and the verdict is clear: ❌ Training is not fit for purpose 📉 Overloaded with service work 😩 Endoscopy access is limited 💤 Out-of-hours training nearly non-existent 🤯 Trainees working on days

What I find so hilarious is that Adolescene became a huge cultural moment in Q1 of this year, white men re-evaluating how they and their kids become radicalised in schools only for them to continue getting radicalised anyway and forming xenophobic “reclamations” of England in Q3

GDP figures show growth at 0.0%. Despite Britain’s great potential, our economy is stuck in the slow lane and working people are paying the price. The government must get a grip of the cost of living crisis and urgently bring forward a proper plan for growth.

Worrying long term hidden fiscal drag... The family income threshold at which English students maintenance loans start to get reduced is just £25,000/yr. It has been this level since the 2008/2009 academic year. We have had 64% (CPI) inflation since then. So it's been
