I’m an oncologist and I love my job. But I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing our patients with cancer and I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing its workforce. lucygossage.com/my-reasons-f… #ConsultantsStrike

A thread for the ultra-wealthy. If you are wealthy, you may think that if the U.K. switches from an NHS-model to a private model of healthcare it will either a) be better for you, or b) will not affect you. Here is why you are wrong… 🧵

The NHS is completely BROKEN It WASNT broken by COVID/Ukraine/inflation(*delete excuse) It was broken by deliberate CHOICES to break it RT if you want this/next government to make CHOICES to properly fund the NHS, reward its staff & provide better healthcare for UK population

Amazing how being drunk can be an acceptable excuse for a man's terrible behaviour, but being drunk as a woman is asking for it

It’s time to stop normalising the unacceptable in health and care. Today’s @AoMRC report sets out current failures and provides an agenda for change to provide safe, dependable healthcare for all. Essential reading for new @DHSgovUK SoS @theresecoffey bit.ly/3LtzITe

The pandemic & ICU There is questionable value of conversation with an individual who is either misinformed or intentionally misrepresenting recent history However a thread to correct the record/explain apparent inconsistency in data that may lead others to honest error 1/n

I said to my 11yo daughter that I don’t know how you did it, as I certainly couldn’t. ‘Mummy, she is a lot younger than you though’. 😳😭😂 😘
