This is an important publication from @RCoANews “The need for doctor anaesthetists rather than AAs has been reinforced by a separate survey of clinical leaders” “The solution is to train more anaesthetists” The evidence is indisputable - no more anaesthetic Dr substitution

Doctors, Next time you’re stressed, tired and want to go home at the end of your shift, and your local managers try to guilt you into helping your underfunded and understaffed services with a rota gap etc. Remember this👇🏼 They gave applause to a politician’s attack on doctors.

At NHS Providers just now @wesstreeting delivered tough attack on the BMA and resident doctor leaders ahead of the 5-day strike starting this week. He said the BMA is "increasingly behaving in cartel-like behavior" and puts NHS at risk. Received a spontaneous applause from crowd.

The Government has suggested a pay uplift of just 2.5% for doctors next year, well below inflation. With resident doctors set to strike next month over pay and jobs, it is “frankly indefensible that yet another Government is once again suggesting real-terms pay cut for

Wes Streeting threatening that he will further doctors’ unemployment if they strike?! He’s actually willing to tank the NHS for his own ego?! This is the most immature & dangerous health secretary I’ve seen in my professional career.

All you folk moaning about the drs striking, they’re the first people you’ll see when you get admitted to hospital. They get the average hourly wage for literally saving lives. You’re paying more to get your boiler fixed. You have no idea what they do on a daily basis.

The Spectator (owned by GBNews owner Paul Marshall - estimated wealth of £800 million) doesn’t like taxing wealth fairly. I wonder how they got to this editorial decision? Let’s tax wealth fairly, fund front line services & make hope normal again. https://t.co/Q27Jy5eX7z

I'll save you a read. By the end of his column Clarkson concludes that, despite having provided him with excellent treatment that his private healthcare provider was unable to, the the NHS simply has to go. It's actually shocking how little our lives are worth to the rich.
