Becky Haywood

@63grussell63 When I flew from London to Monza for the GP in 2019 I was on the same EasyJet flight as Lando Norris. Makes more sense now why he was flying on a budget airline 🤣

GEORGE HUH?????

@Kareno38 @SianElizabeth0 @BBCNews I went to the GP when I was 14,15,16,17,18. I finally got diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis at 27. I would not have the ‘medical proof’ required during school to be ‘allowed’ to be sick. When I had my period I literally couldn’t walk for the first day.

@SianElizabeth0 @BBCNews So you think that it’s ok to take a couple of days off every month without proof that it’s genuine? If pain is that bad, see a doctor, get help and a sick note

@RobertD95258624 @marcusveniquis @doctor_oxford I’m non medically trained…and part of a profession that contributes to over 90% of diagnoses in the NHS. Are you saying that the NHS only needs doctors and all the rest are a waste of money?

@marcusveniquis @doctor_oxford 50% of NHS staff non medically trained.. money for pride,trans ward.We spend more money per capita than Australia but have less beds, Doctors & nurses, money wasted at every turn.

Imagine having terminal cancer, arriving at A&E with suspected sepsis & being forced to lie on the FLOOR because the hospital hasn’t got a single bed. This happened to Madeleine Butcher this week. In Britain. In 2024. Because the Tories have destroyed our NHS. Simply barbaric.

@pabloteuk @D_Blanchflower And do I then get a refund because I have no kids and therefore don’t use the schools? And do those who don’t see a GP for a year get a refund for not using the NHS? That’s just not how tax works…we all pay for stuff we don’t use 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Architect9991 @Victoria_Spratt It’s already starting - Barnet Council are coming after ~500 freeholders for £23k to replace timber cladding: barnet.gov.uk/planning-and-b… Please sign and share: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6591…

@Victoria_Spratt The Cladding and Building Safety Crisis is where the s is going to hit the fan Costs are MASSIVE and Government are not providing enough £ to cover it.

Am in touch with leaseholders in Hitchin who have received a 9000% ground rent rise! Gove wants a £250 cap but Treasury are, as I understand it, against this. Unlike service charges, ground rent not impacted by inflation so how could this be justified?!? thecomet.net/news/24261876.…

@sallykettle Thank you my dear - I will!

@TeslaGirl It’s recorded @TeslaGirl - so sign up anyway and you’ll get access x

If you’ve experienced overwhelm or you’re in the thick of it right now, please join me next week to find out how to manage symptoms, find a ‘humane’ way through it & discover how to prevent it in the future.

@bishy29 I can’t abide cucumber - the taste of it contaminates everything else it touches. So if it’s got cucumber in, it’s not getting eaten. It’s a genetic thing fisherald.com/picky-eater-or….

Tweeps! Help a chef out! I'm sick of serving salad garnishes that come back. What makes a salad garnish tasty to you so you'll bloody eat it? I'm sick of the waste, but I don't want to take it off the plate!

My house is apparently a fire hazard, but not eligible for the same funding high-rise buildings are. Please sign this petition to try and change that: Extend cladding remediation funding to buildings under 11 metres petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6591…

@smizz Hep A: If you can get a booster then great, if not, your B-cells know how to make the antibody- you’ll be grand. They just won’t be floating around ready to go. Tetanus is not my area of expertise but I know it’s not worth messing with!

Just realized that I need Hep A vaccine for Mexico City 😫 - with 2.5 weeks left before I go. 🤦‍♀️ I had 1 dose of Hep A vax in March 2018. I should be ok with that, right? Same with the tetanus. Boosted March 2018. Should be alright, right? 🤣

@guardian It was Barnet council that told us when we extended our timber clad, timber frame house in 2020 that we MUST use the same materials as the current building…the same ones they’re now telling us are a fire-risk and must be replaced or they will take legal action…

@rscrase We’ve got timber (not UPVC) cladding in Barnet. We’ve still received a letter saying we must replace it at a cost of £18-23k (council will give us a loan only if we use THEIR contractors to do the work).

theguardian.com/society/2024/m… It’s not timber frame that’s the problem, it’s the plastic cladding

@Liztweets_ @EmmaSzewczak Exactly my mothers point when naming me Becky not Rebecca 🤷🏻‍♀️ other than the usual ‘we can’t find R Haywood in the system’ when I give my name, it’s not caused me any hardship.

@EmmaSzewczak Start as you mean to go on, in my opinion. Why name your kid Benjamin if you’re always going to call him Ben?

too many people giving their children nicknames as first names nowadays, you've got your ellas, your archies, your leos, your lotties, your livs. whatever happened to good old fashioned long form names???? give the child a CHOICE of nicknames for goodness sake

@NationalHols auntie and uncle booked a trip with you to the Edinburgh Tattoo in a few weeks…just found out their accommodation is a Holiday Inn at Glasgow Airport?!? Please tell me that is a mistake? How can you run a holiday to Edinburgh and accommodate people in Glasgow?

@NHSBT you might want to post some comms about this - lots of posts showing this screenshot circulating…can’t find it on your website so seems like a photoshop job to me

@1goodtern Do you have a link to the actual page or just a screenshot? I can’t find this on the NHSBT website 🤷🏻‍♀️

This is bad, and will get worse. And worse. And worse. 🔥Blood donation service in the UK refusing blood from long covid sufferers 🚨 But my gut tells me that f they're refusing it from people with long covid they should probably be refusing it from everyone who has had a covid infection*. Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit.

@PhillipaBurns I 100% agree!

@PhillipaBurns It could cause issues if non-registered are kept on CS scales - the JDs are usually the same as registered staff and they’re doing the same work. It’s going to be tricky to balance I think.

@PhillipaBurns There’s talk that the clinical ring fence is being expanded soon to include registered BMS/CS staff, but we shall see.

@PhillipaBurns I’m not sure the pension contributions are factored into people’s decisions to move - they see the salary offered: £37,295 CS band 7 equivalent (with no pay progression!) to £40,588 for an AFC band 6 after 5 years in post…
