Thank you for asking this question.
GP practices are working beyond capacity. Demand far outstrips supply.
Much of our time is now dedicated to online working due to changes in our contract that reduce our time for face to face appointments.

But suggest that the ideology that says “carpet bomb them, it’s our land, kick out the Arabs” might be racist, then according to Andy Burnham and Bridget Phillipson, you’re not only a racist yourself, but you also don’t deserve local council services.

If you think it's not important to fix conditions and pay for consultants then read just one of the messages I got today. Where are the Drs? They've gone to places with better work life balance and better pay. Without Drs there's no NHS.

Gay man here 👋🏻
The LGB Alliance does not represent me or any LGB person I know. Its work is overwhelmingly focused on attacking trans rights, and it aligns itself with those who oppose LGBTQ+ equality.
The government should not treat it as a credible voice for LGB people.

The thing about Google clearing a forest in Finland without permits is that they decided that whatever fine they might face is worth it. It doesn’t cost them as much as not getting the land cleared.
Because like ALL things, if the punishment is a fine, it isn’t really illegal for rich people.

As we head into the mid-season break I really think it’s worth emphasising once more that nobody thought #SNLUK would work. It was just an assumption that it’d fail.
The fact that this team has made this show as unmissable as it’s become in just 14 episodes overall is UNREAL.

🚨 UPDATE: The hypocrisy gets even worse.
"Sir" David Bell, the very man behind the government's antisemitism in schools report, was accused of Islamophobia back in 2005 for singling out Muslim faith schools.
As the then head of Ofsted, he warned that religious segregation could threaten social cohesion and questioned whether Muslim schools were adequately preparing children to respect other cultures.
Fast-forward 21 years...
We're now discussing a Jewish school's published commitment to preparing pupils to become "positive advocates for Israel", while Bell's new report goes far beyond political impartiality, proposing measures to silence legitimate criticism of Israel, presenting genocide as a matter of competing political perspectives, and sanitising the actions of the Israeli state under the guise of tackling antisemitism.
If Muslim schools teaching a particular worldview raised concerns about social cohesion, why shouldn't schools explicitly preparing children to advocate for the State of Israel face the same scrutiny?
Especially when Israel are carrying out a genocide in Gaza!!
This isn't about Jewish or Muslim children. It's about the political indoctrination of ANY child, and the equally dangerous prospect of using education as a vehicle for state propaganda, suppressing legitimate criticism and sanitising atrocities.
It has absolutely NO place in our children's education, no matter which religion, ideology or state it seeks to serve.
If this is seriously where we're at, we may as well stop calling it the Department of Education, and call it what it is: the Ministry for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda.

Esther Ghey asking the obvious question of people who have become obsessed with trans people: "as a family we were willing to accept her so why when it's nothing to do with you are you so bothered?"

World-leading cardiac surgeon Asif Hasan was surrounded by the children who received the gift of life thanks to his unerring skills at the emotional climax of another memorable Pride of Britain ceremony. 🥹
Now 70 years old, Mr Hasan has just retired after 35 years of service at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle upon Tyne, but just after receiving his Lifetime Achievement Award, he had an extra special surprise: a cast of patients who would not be alive without him. ❤️

Buried on page 30 of 'Sir' David Bellend's report into antisemitism in schools in the UK it explicitly says there hasn't been a rise in antisemitism, only in anti-Israel sentiment. Astonishingly fraudulent crisis/debate, all to shield a genocidal state

Genuinely, did Andy Burnham just say left wing things before Zack Polanski's by-election.
Then only right wing things since.
That's a level of cynical I didn't even realise Labour had reached yet.

when i was a healthcare assistant in the NHS, if you had a shift the night the clocks went back, you worked an extra hour but you didn't get paid for it
so i guess i'll probably use the extra hour getting angry about wage theft

Palestinians are required to file for a permit from the IDF in order to harvest their own olives in their own olive groves.
The same IDF turns a blind eye, and at times is complicit, with settler terrorists who burn down those groves. They have a permanent permit from the IDF.
Earlier today, a number of harvesters, accompanied by dozens of individuals, arrived to conduct an uncoordinated olive harvest in an area near Beitar Illit. Harvesting in this area requires a request to be submitted to the relevant authorities in advance of the start of the olive harvest season. This coordination is necessary to ensure the security of the area and maintain public order.
Due to the security risk posed by conducting an uncoordinated harvest near an Israeli community, IDF soldiers, Border Police forces in Judea and Samaria, and officers from the Judea and Samaria District Police arrived at the scene and detained those present.
The landowner was informed that he must coordinate the olive harvest on his plot of land and was provided with the relevant contact information to arrange a harvest at a later date.
It should be emphasized that authorized olive harvests have taken place and continue to take place. To date, approximately 100 coordinated harvests have been conducted across Judea and Samaria, yielding many dozens of tons of produce, with security provided and coordination by the security forces, without any unusual incidents.
In areas designated for coordinated harvesting, only harvesters will be permitted to enter, solely for the purpose of harvesting.
As in previous years, security forces are working to facilitate a safe and orderly olive harvest season, with a firm commitment to enabling harvesting without unusual incidents or interruptions, alongside their ongoing defensive and counterterrorism missions.
