After the revival of this old thread on UK infrastructure, I realise that I never followed through on my promise: to explain what might speed it up. Grab a spade, and come with me. 🧵 (thanks to @Sam_Dumitriu and @DavidHenigUK for reminding me)

Most new managers suck at managing. You're suddenly responsible for leading a team and you have no idea how to do it. I've served as a manager and executive at several companies. Here's a step by step cheatsheet to help you become a better leader today:

@fbevan11 @PA_Consulting I’m confident that they will 🤥 #GettingTheKettleOnNow

@NHSAlexH @PA_Consulting That has to last until your coffee morning next week.

Lovely little pick-me-up from the team today @PA_Consulting

@AdamBaylissEA @EnvAgencyYNE Really interesting! Keep up the good work

The @EnvAgencyYNE #SheafScreen in #Sheffield is coming along nicely. Most of the major civils works are now complete and control panels installed, next steps are the debris grabs, electrical wiring, welfare provision and the final user testing. Due for completion mid 2021.

Kim Woodburn as the Ward Manager: a thread.

Seeing a consult in the ED

This is how Angela Merkel explained the effect of a higher #covid19 infection rate on the country's health system. This part of today's press conf was great, so I just added English subtitels for all non-German speakers. #flattenthecurve

@sailordoctor Every day my hair is getting closer and closer to looking like Boris Johnson’s!

A question I never imagined asking before #COVID19 - Does anyone know where I can get a black market haircut in #Sheffield ? I'm about a fortnight away from going into the peaks, finding some sheep, putting grass on my head and hoping for the best.

@MgrAnonymous I do wonder how many patients are slowly detoriating at home as they are either scared / “not wanting to bother the hospital” during this period!

@fshbf2 @mrwiffo @MHarperCOO one for you guys!

Does anyone have a contact at Northern General A&E? We have respirators of the right spec which we can donate. We are sending ten to Doncaster, and another ten can go to Sheffield if required.

Probably the most profound paragraph about British politics you'll read throughout this whole sorry election campaign. By Robert Crampton in the Sunday Times thetimes.co.uk/article/why-do…

About once a day we receive a patient in out of hospital cardiac arrest. The ambulance crew may be continuing CPR or they have got the heart going again. Members of the public play an essential role in whether patients survive or not.

Good morning Sheffield! Views over Hope valley ❤️

@PEMDrMike Congrats Mike! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

The last 10 years of my life spent on the treadmill of training has culminated in an email from the GMC confirming my paediatric (PEM) entry onto the specialist register... and breathe! Time now for my next adventure in Sydney!
