RCHT platinumpizza™ RCHT could you explain how PAs are highly skilled experts please ?

RCHT platinumpizza™ Qualified experts? I’m sorry, are you out of your minds? 2 years training after a random degree? Who on earth wrote this? Who on earth signed it off?

No one is above the law and certainly not this Government

If you agree RT this widely

These are not just migrants, they are asylum seekers who have not had their claims processed. They are potentially being deported to a country which is unsafe for asylum seekers but which Parliament has said by law is 'safe'.

And clearly being used for party political purposes

Wow ! this from Donald Tusk !👇

'As we celebrate 20 years in the EU ... the World Bank forecasts income per capita will be higher in Poland than in the UK in 2025. I promise this: on the 25th anniversary, Poles will be wealthier than the British. It's better to be in the EU !'👇

Vote for Sadiq tomorrow.

The Mayoral election is next Thursday.

The choice is clear: a Tory candidate who doesn’t share London’s values, or my plans for a fairer, safer and greener city for all Londoners.

If you love London - vote for it. #VoteLabour

Confirmation from ⁦The Spectator World⁩ that political dogma from ⁦UK Prime Minister⁩ blocks resolution of the doctor disputes? The BMA⁩ fights to give patients doctors; is £20/hr ‘unrealistic’? You call us militant, we stand now for the future of UK medicine & the NHS.

Folks, Donald Trump brags about overturning Roe v. Wade. He’s ready to ban abortion nationwide. And today, he said states should be able to punish women and monitor their bodies.

It’s outrageous. With your help, we can stop him: joe.link/ChipIn

Prof Colin R Melville thanks- what’s your view as part of the GMC of PAs being on doctors rotas?

Does the GMC have a position on this based on ‘protecting the public’?

My query to you as a senior clinician who does work around patient safety

Thanks for considering

Will the patients be told they are seeing someone with less training than a 3rd year medical student? Is this fair on patients? #askforadoctor

The lead story - Austerity + performative cruelty. The second story - Brexit + performative cruelty. What a truly awful government this is. Quiz question for the week … name one part of national life that has improved in 14 years under 5 Tory PMs

#ScreamsBeforeSilence

I’ve been told by:
1) a few students / staff Imperial College London
2) #doctors on the #JuniorDoctorscontractforum Facebook group that has erased me
3) repeatedly on X including by Owen Jones

that there were no #rapes or good evidence of rapes on…

Wonderful obituary for an amazing doctor who died much too young. theguardian.com/society/2024/a…

Such a beautiful obituary of the moral colossus & campaigning legend that was Jenny Vaughan. Fearless, principled, courageous, humane. She will be so sorely missed 💙

Their choice of right-wing bedfellows is probably the most dangerous aspect of the current UK crop of antipsychiatrists.

Outrageous.

GPs and patient groups raised the alarm on legitimate patient safety concerns at #samedayhubs

They successfully stopped their roll out.

NHS NW London ICB’s response?

A poorly veiled threat of GMC referral.

Straight out of the doctor coercion playbook.

Very well written and absolutely. spot on. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
