As you watch the Aurora this evening, itโ€™s worth reflecting that youโ€™re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that weโ€™re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)

How dare you take credit for our hard work. 71% of GPs report extreme stress, and GPs are leaving in their droves. More appts does not improve quality, it just pushes the workforce to quit. If you want the NHS to survive donโ€™t fall for this governmentโ€™s rhetoric #blameMPsnotGPs
Weโ€™re making real progress in getting patients to see their GP quicker. โœ… Almost 2 million more appointments were delivered this February vs. February last year. ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Thatโ€™s 100,000 more appointments each working day. ๐Ÿ“ˆ With more GPs and primary care staff to come.

โ€œBoris Johnson has argued it was essential for his staff to have leaving drinks while insisting that you werenโ€™t allowed to visit dying family or to attend their funerals. I canโ€™t begin to comprehend the anger that you must justifiably feel and I am deeply sorry for you allโ€

In January, 870,736 appointments were offered to patients registered with an Essex GP practice. That's 78,323 more appointments than offered in December. There was also a decrease of five FTE GP's in Essex compared to December. Our workforce is continuously stretched - be kind.

Word of the day is a reminder of โ€˜smellfungusโ€™ (18th century): one who grumblingly finds fault in everyone and everything.

Blaming GPs for not enough appts is like blaming the only worker on the till at Tesco for your wait, for all the other empty tills, & telling them to work 24/7 1.4m consult GPs every day 1896 fewer GPs since 2015 Some chose to work โ€˜part-timeโ€™ due to 12hr days๐Ÿคท๐Ÿป #GPCrisis
