Dear 🇬🇧,

I can't stop thinking about my employer caring so little about suicidal doctors that it's chosen to cut the 0.007% of its budget it spends on the mental health service that helps keep them alive.

Thanks, @nhsengland.

And they wonder why doctors are leaving in droves.

7/7🧵GMC, your continued silence and inaction on the greatest threat to human health is a clear contravention of your duty to protect patients and doctors. Your responsibilities are clear: #ActNowGMC . Climate leadership, climate action, climate solidarity!

5/7🧵While health workers risk their careers and prison to take action on climate, the GMC continues to invest in fossil fuel extraction and banks with fossil-fuel exposed @RBS. GMC, fossil fuel investment makes you complicit in the destruction of the liveable Earth.

3/7🧵Health workers are protesting to protect public health within an increasingly repressive legal environment which has seen protestors imprisoned for mentioning climate change in court, and prosecuted for holding signs stating the rights of juries. tinyurl.com/2yzurgqz

1/7🧵This morning doctors and members of the public are at the GMC to demand action on the climate and health emergency. The GMC's responsibilities include setting medical standards and safeguarding population health. #ActNowGMC - tinyurl.com/28wvle4q
