We have consistently called for NHS clinical negligence reform – and today’s @NAOorguk report further highlights the case for change. Our proposal would make the system quicker, fairer, and more focused on learning from mistakes. Read more here:

We’re disappointed to have to delay our regional strategy as a result of @Gateshead_NHS. We wanted to progress @NHSEngland 10 point plan in all NE trusts but Gateshead won’t allow their reps to attend despite weeks of notice. Partnership working, but only when it suits them.

It’s #PublicHealthWorkforceWeek. Our recent report surveyed public health professionals from across the UK to understand the challenges they face, and what urgently must change. Read the report and our recommendations here:

If you're a UK medical student, we want to hear from you. Watch @Elgan_MR explain why 👇

Doctors should have the right to strike, just like everyone else. “Banning strikes is anti-democratic and gagging professionals who sound the alarm about NHS crises will make things worse.” @ERunswickBMA The problem isn’t strikes, it’s an NHS in crisis.

The results are in: 97.36% of FY1s in England voted YES for strike action. This puts the specialty training crisis firmly on the negotiating table, alongside #PayRestoration. Thank you to everyone who voted in the ballot. #EndTrainingCrisis

Welcome to #SASWeek25! Now in its fourth year, we're celebrating the incredible contributions of SAS doctors across the UK. @drujjwalam, BMA SAS committee chair, is proud to spotlight the impact these dedicated professionals make every day. Watch the video 📽️👇

Our council chair Dr @thomasdolphin has responded to the horrific attack on Heaton Park Synagogue in Manchester, on behalf of the BMA.

"We're really worried that the software we've been told to keep on throughout the day cannot distinguish between an urgent request for GP attention within a few hours or a routine care request."   @DavidGWrigley speaks to @BBC about online booking and patient safety concerns.

GPs are committed to patient safety. Yet this Government has failed to listen to our concerns about its online consultation system. We've been left with no choice but to enter into formal dispute. Our door has always & will always be open to negotiations https://t.co/XmWyfNnV9p

The new online GP consultation system poses significant challenges to patient safety and GP workloads. The Government has broken its promise to ensure 'necessary safeguards' have been met. GPs in England are now entering into dispute with the Government https://t.co/8wtu9YpgOp
