32,409,039. That's how many GP appointments were delivered in January 2024. That's 3 million more than in January 2023. And have we seen the GP workforce crisis addressed? No. This is unsustainable. Government must take urgent action to #RebuildGP now. #TeamGP

Contrary to the wording, I & @BMA_GP GPC England did not give @uk_biobank permission to support this letter, as @rorycollins knows Sadly, this now affects my trust in how you’ll gain patient consent for their health data if you ignore mine so freely GPs: this is not contractual

Yesterday's @Telegraph article from @lauradonnlee shows the dismal decline of GP practices in England since 2016. Government is leaving patients without GPs, and continuity of care is being left at the wayside. Patients want the return of the family doctor. We must #RebuildGP.
