Whatever you think about resident doctor strikes, the govt's decision to downgrade the NHS by - yes, you read that right - "reducing reliance on doctors" is appallingly short-sighted. This will punish patients, who have a right to access high quality care from appropriately qualified medical professionals. How exactly is improving the NHS compatible with reducing its numbers of doctors, @wesstreeting? This is exactly what Jim Mackey appears to be announcing 😳

20 years on from Dunblane, these three smirk as Ed Davey points out they called a request for a handgun ban "Ludicrous". If you want to keep your kids safe, never vote for this disgusting bunch.

Having followed the sickness absence protocol, emailed in to let my department, my consultant & medical staffing know that I unfortunately am still poorly, why did medical staffing think it was ok to WhatsApp me 💀😭 Just let me REST 😭😭😭

This is just one trick media use to manufacture consent for war.

There are just over 6000 GP practices in England. Every practice should schedule an email every 3 days to @wesstreeting, with *URGENT * in the subject line, demanding a same day reply. That’s literally just what his new GP contract is demanding.

Anyone who says the future of Greenland should be up to Greenlanders but won't accept that the future of Gaza should be up to the Palestinians is a hypocritical sack of shit.

Streeting has had 18 months to come up with a coherent plan on how to promote/manage/improve the NHS. He’s done nothing, alienated doctors, failed to implement the Leng review and has the insight and ability of a pebble.

A Gen Z joined the team. Week one. During onboarding, the manager said, “We sometimes stay late during peak periods.” Gen Z nodded. Then asked, “Is that paid… or just expected?” The room went quiet. - No attitude. - No rebellion. - Just a question. Later that day, HR mentioned “growth opportunities.” Gen Z replied, “Does growth include raises, or just more responsibility?” Again, silence. - No laziness. - No entitlement. - Just clarity. That’s when the team realized something. When people say “Gen Z is lazy,” what they really mean is: Gen Z watched old generation - skip meals, - miss birthdays, - work weekends, - and burn out only to be told “budgets are tight” and “be grateful you have a job.” So Gen Z chose differently. - They don’t romanticize overwork. - They don’t confuse suffering with ambition. - They don’t trade health for praise. They still work hard. They just refuse to work for nothing. It’s not laziness. It’s pattern recognition. And honestly, after everything old generation went through… Can you really blame them?

Telling a woman who was a victim of abuse that her experiences aren't valid because you've had a positive interaction with her abuser is one of the lowest, most disgusting things you can do.

Trump’s war on Venezuela is about stealing its oil. It’s also about turning the whole of Latin America back into a US colony. And it’s about sending a message that international law does not matter. All governments, including ours, must stand up to Trump's gangster politics.

Patriotism? You partied while nurses died on the frontline.

Picture 1 Consultant Level Arts Therapist £80-90k Picture 2 Senior Resident Neurosurgeon who has completed all of their consultancy exams £65-67k Resident Doctors are incredibly undervalued Their request for pay restoration is a bargain!

To quote my colleague James Booth, regarding the Resident Doctors’ action this week: “Lots of MPs hitting social media. I was a junior doctor (as we were called then) just over twenty years ago. I worked hard: long, stressful hours… 1/x @TheBMA @BMA_GP @BMAResidents

Day 3 of Streeting’s Strike is almost over. Senior doctors have kept patients safe while supporting their resident colleagues. Wesley is right - “The NHS is here for you” while he and his colleagues are now on holiday till January 5th. Not bad for £134,565 a year @wesstreeting

🌟Proud to work in a GP surgery that gives people 'Welcome Back' Admin time after a period of leave🌟Work always accumulates when we're off.

No Union should be affiliated to the Labour Party after their persistent attacked on the BMA and its members over the past few days. It is not the party of workers.

Even without strikes, thousands of NHS operations are routinely cancelled due to staff shortages, especially in anaesthetics, and lack of beds. Yet the govt has done little. Waiting lists grow, A&E corridors overflow, and strikes remain the only leverage to demand urgent action.
