@DrOKaneAgain 'JD Strike Again..: Watch in disbelief as consultant leaders duck and delay a clear responsibility. Wonder as the consultant leaders shudder behind a junior action. It's here at last. The sequel. You get what you vote for.

Said all I wanted to say

@ashleyljames Two unlikable protagonists use what they have to disgrace each other in the eyes of temperate observers. Care less.

The smear campaign against Ngozi Fulani is revolting. She is the founder of a charity that helps domestic abuse victims. She was at Buckingham Palace to be celebrating for her work in helping to tackle violence against women and girls. Stop with the smear campaign, please!

@GPDrYvetteDoc That is an error that could have been prevented by a trainer who is physically present. Keogh was not daft in insisting in timely consultant review.

Tried to admit a patient to SDEC Registrar told me to "call back in 5 minutes" He did this once more & then agreed to listen, after trying to stop me again "Send her to ED" Me"Can I take your name please" "You don't need to know that, just say medical expected" Then he hung up 😞

@goldstone_tony @TheBMA @rosaltmann @FT @BMA_Pensions @Vish_Sharm @paullewismoney @SteveBarclay @Jeremy_Hunt @10DowningStreet .. and it took far too long for the BMA to figure that out and in the meantime established consultants lost hand over fist. Class action against the BMA would be logical. Cost would fall to whoever insures the BMA. Doubly sweet.

THOUGHT FOR DAY: In 2021 LTA@£1.073m = public sector pension of £46,657 before breaching With inflation 10.1% '22, 7.9% '23 LTA should be £1.423m buying same pension of 46.7k Instead LTA will by 27/28 be real terms £818k = pension just £35.6k! RT if you agree➡️NHS collapse 📉

@trentconsultant Or maybe waste membership money. As you say the BMA chose to push data against dogma for years and got nowhere. The Consultant Committee will roll over every time the branches tickle.

@generationx_doc They are not the public. The DDRB hear our reasoned arguments every single year (and ignore it). Messages must be right for the recipient. That’s why we spend members money finding out what works!

I don’t know what triggered this but spot on. The last thing we need is a 1,000 different messages. You can’t explain the democratically arrived at policy if you don’t know the policy! Talk to Mediaoffice@bma.org.uk first

Best thing I learned today. There are about six million public servants. I knew that. I am one. They do the stuff. There are about half a million civil servants. They...

@danny_mercer Good and brave of you to put this out. As far as I know, just put pen to paper with your name and registration and move on to the next sick patient.

Today's issues as an F1 in the NHS: 1. being asked to do TTOs for three patients who were new over the weekend, that haven't been medically reviewed, before 9am by the nurse manager 2. matron arriving and declaring that "6 need to be discharged from every hospital ward today"

@BMA_Consultants Almost entirely the fault of the BMA

Senior doctors are facing huge tax bills, retiring early or going part time due to punitive pension taxation rules. Write to your MP to demand a solution e-activist.com/page/112689/ac…

@DrAdamC @goldstone_tony I told the BMA Consultants Committee that this would happen in some years advance. By 2018 I asked them to reconstitute membership to the pension committee that they had abandoned after 2015 . General BMA support for Consultants was absent as ever.

@goldstone_tony got my brown letter for the second year in a row, I’m not even 40. The one silver lining is that I left the NHS this year, and this was absolutely one of the factors which influenced me.

Good to see UK wanktions doing their job.

@lisanandy Belting. Looking forward to this.

It’s time for a government that is as ambitious for the future of our country as the people in it. I’m delighted to have been asked by Keir Starmer to take this on.

@medicsupport Hmm. You have already probably sorted this out. Visit your practic

Rant warning. For 40 years I have used my married name for health/personal matters and my maiden name for professional/financial matters. I now find that my identity documents won’t be accepted as evidence for a Covid Pass as don’t match my NHS record. #everydaysexism What to do
