Straw Poll: on Friday I asked my final year tutorial group of their intentions after F2; seven of 10 said leave. A proportion will not return. We invest emotionally and financially in training them; it is utterly heartbreaking to witness their instinct to leave our NHS.
NEW: we need to talk about NHS staff retention. At a time when Britain’s healthcare system is acutely short of workers, *1 in 7* UK-trained doctors are practising overseas. No other developed country is like this, which immediately tells you there’s a problem. Let’s dig deeper:

JFK's speech at the UN, 1961 "There are not three forces, but two. — One is composed of those who are trying to build the kind of world described in Articles I & II of the Charter. — The other, seeking a very different world, would undermine this organization in the process."

Imagine living in developed country where face masks are the norm and not stigmatised. That’s Japan with almost 10 times less COVID deaths than England.

Meghan Markle isn’t perfect - nor is Prince Harry (although he put his life on the line for his country and stood up for people who struggle with their mental health). But the nastiness and the viciousness directed at her (and Harry) come from a very dark place. Racism is rife.

'We need sustainable and supportive funding, not end of life care supported by bake sales' Right now the hospice sector is facing additional costs of over £2 million a week - thank you @5_News for showing the impact of the cost of living crisis on this vital sector @GHHospice
The UK's leading hospices charity has exclusively shared figures with us which show centres across the country need to raise an extra £2 million a week to keep running due to the cost of living crisis. @ewither has been seeing how one centre in Hertfordshire is coping. #5News

Devastating post on TGG today about a GP who has died by suicide 😢 Consent from Gail’s husband for these screenshots to be shared. The pressure NHS GPs are under is immense. It needs urgent action. What’s the plan @BMA_GP @rcgp @NHSEngland? 👀

Money, the only metric he understands. What value can arts and humanities courses possibly have? What use empathy? Imagination? Reason? Aesthetics? Communication? How could those things possibility be of any benefit in the Tory vision of society?

Short versions of our film on pandemic bereavement, These Four Walls, now freely available. A great resource for raising public awareness and teaching clinicians and therapists what it has been like to grieve at this time. 4-minute version here: vimeo.com/729923667
