Hi West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership. Why are you still not in line with NICE guidance for having both Flash and CGM on your formulary? 32 other ICS have managed and you are starting to stand out.

The NHS pay offer is out. In 2022/23 a band 5 inner London wage is £35016. The offer is £35784. After tax and pension this equates to £38 more a month. Happy to be corrected.

And yet this IA which had such impact had so little media coverage. It was all focused on Gary Glitter, Gary Lineker, stamps with Charles's head on...you get the idea

#JuniorDoctorsStrike

I notice the #JuniorDoctorsStrike has dropped off the BBC News (UK) website front page and isn’t even the top health story. Press coverage often negative and patients undeterred from attending A&E. I fear HMG has no reason to negotiate. What’s the The BMA next move?

Like I was saying, it is *nowhere* on the BBC main news page.

“Check your conscience before you go on strike” Steve Barclay tells junior doctors

Junior doctors are not worth 25% less today than they were in 2010

RT if you think it’s the Health Secretary who needs to check his conscience
#IstandWithJuniordoctors

Junior doctors and dentists are not worth 25% less than they were in 2008, yet that is what has happened to their pay with inflation
They deserve #payrestoration not claps 👏 ❌
I support every Jr Dr in their action to be paid fairly for the work they do

Worth bearing in mind, this is what the BBC said to me in 2020 when Andrew Neil was being a shouty, right-wing pile on orchestrator on Twitter.

Compare and contrast.

This is a superb and excoriating summary of the Lineker scandal.

#PayRestoration
From today, some employers, seniors and rota coordinators will tell you things that are not true.

Some are clumsy mistakes, some are attempts to undermine your will to strike.

The media will attack you and your reps.

Here are some mistruths you may hear:

What on earth? Since when was wanting to work LTFT (and this is a non training post BTW) dependent on personal reasons? Can people no longer have lives? Preferences? Commitments to hobbies or self care/wellbeing?
Not my Trust, and from the start was given the 0.8WTE I asked for.

Gutted. I got an email from Pooky for a fisheye style mirror and I was all set to buy it after work...and the price was wrong! Not £158 but £890. A 'small' error they said in their amended email. Would hate to see a 'big' error. Living room mirror search continues...

Hi West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership ... please add CGM to your formulary as per the NICE guidance issued in August 2022. They've done all the hard work looking at benefit and cost analysis and it's cost neutral compared to FCGM. Other areas have managed, why not you?
