Did you know? BME doctors were TWICE as likely to receive a complaint or be referred to the GMC compared to their white colleagues. That difference more pronounced when from EMPLOYER aka NHS- than the public. Let's be clear how biased that data looks And not make excuses

An important reminder to all in the @NHSuk when under pressure to do extra, that your family, friends and self are first priority in your life. Your clinical role is replaceable. #retention #recruitment @BMA_Consultants

"living with" these levels of infections - even for only a few weeks - is incredibly disruptive for all industries and downright dangerous in ones like healthcare. You cannot legislate for people to not feel ill and nor can you legislate away how long they are infectious for.

Illustrating a story about terrifyingly hot weather with happy people swimming is so 2021. theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/j…

@redneeraj Have you got a good biriyani recipe?

I bought my wife a Le Creuset cast iron casserole pot for Christmas (it was a dream of hers to have one in case anyone starts) and I am now wondering whether they are also good for cooking curries. Will I ruin it if I make a chana masala or saag aloo?

“myths that legitimize inequity include the concept of a meritocracy — the idea that success is based primarily on a person’s abilities, which ignores the effects of structural racism on opportunities” I frequently go round in circles when talking about this @AfzaliBehdad

THANK YOU mystery book-giver for this gem! This one is interesting because in it's attempt to convice the reader, it highlights the logical fallacies (1955) that are STILL the bedrock of UFO/UAP advocates. Here's a few (thread):

Last night I watched #DontLookUp. It was like seeing my adult life flash past me. Even down to the morning TV show where I totally lost it while trying, for the 1000th time, to explain what climate breakdown would do. All the anger, the frustration, the desperation: I feel it.

@AfzaliBehdad Congratulations Ben! Very well deserved!

@safetynurse999 Ugh

Bum. #thatsmynewyearoutthewindow

Inspirational from ⁦@JohnJCrace⁩ A stark reminder that the struggle doesn’t end for those who are clean. Thank you for writing this. “I was a heroin addict and had given up on myself. Then suddenly, briefly, I felt a desire to live” theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

@benthebray Ooh. Could be. However I don’t remember her sloping off to see it at the cinema. And then I wonder if it’s closer to the Flukeman from Season 2 of the X Files…

7 year old daughter drew this picture of “Santa” yesterday. Seriously hoping this freak didn’t emerge from anyone’s fireplace this Christmas morning to… you know… feast on people.

@safetynurse999 @KingsCollegeNHS Woop woop! Let me know if you’re about one Monday for a coffee and patient safety chat!

@Jonoinengland @GSTTnhs @psmn999 No. Off to @KingsCollegeNHS 😀

Sad day in my world today. Had to say good bye to the brilliant QIPS team @GSTTnhs I have learned from the best. Time for a new adventure ….. and before you ask. Yes I shall still be hosting the Friday @psmn999 meetings

There is no battle. Just politicians ignoring scientists’ advice.

Any writer who claims 'UK models always overestimate COVID numbers' is either lazy or trying to mislead their readers. A few illustrations... 1/

Got the classic "rare disease" line of questioning at my gyno today. Please for the love of God stop asking chronically ill patients who coordinates our care. No one does. No one. They just splice up our bodies piecemeal and send us to the next specialist. 1/4
