Wow! Blocked by my own regulator on social media Interesting times…….
Things just got a lot worse for NHS Fife
1/ A most unusual statement. Despite protesting they have no capacity to steer public opinion, NHS Fife try to do exactly that with an overly long ramble that varies between outright mendacity and “we’re saying this but not quite saying this libel”. This is called “being cute”
Totally agree #BeKind has been weaponised in the public sector by those who really mean #BeSilent
It’s sad when beautiful slogans become empty decorations. When “BeKind” is just a lanyard print, but behavior contradicts it — it not only erodes trust, but also leaves genuinely kind people feeling alienated.
Our LondonCentric piece this morn shows how Asif Aziz’s company repeatedly rents some of the UK’s priciest retail spaces to students who vanish without paying millions in tax. There’s so much money for HMRC in the WestEnd if it just enforces compliance. open.substack.com/pub/londoncent…
What could possibly go wrong, my respected colorectal colleagues?
Japanese design firm Kenji Abe has designed a glass beer bottle that you can stick into the sand on the beach
Don’t ever let anyone tell you that the govt has no more money to pay doctors properly when they spaff endless money up the wall on nonsense like this
FOOTBALL ON THE NHS 🤨⁉️ Live football is to be prescribed 𝙁𝙍𝙀𝙀 on the NHS as a treatment for depression… Doctors will direct patients to watch matches in the hope it boosts their mental health 🧠 The first team that people can get a prescription to see will be National…
Everybody wants to be a doctor But none of them want to lift no heavy-ass textbooks
Hot take, NC removing the physician supervision requirement for PAs after 4000 hours (less than even the shortest residency) seems not only disastrous for PAs not trained for this but unfair for patients. Idk I feel like if you want to practice independently go to medical school
Study finds that there is more diversity of thought on the political right than on the left
Facts don’t care about your feelings Which part of my post is untrue? Why do you think so many of us are anon on here? 👇

The @lengreview has provided permission for more Doctors to start speaking up This LinkedIn post being challenged by many Doctors is incredible. The profession has nearly completely shaken off the weaponisation of BeKind linkedin.com/posts/harjer-k…
I am a generalist hospital doctor. I do emergency, general ward and HDU work. I have an MRCP. I have worked in haemato-oncology as a junior doctor. I have just done a diploma in tropical medicine (lots of haematology). I have been doing all this for over 30 years. I would not…
To say that I am shocked about this job advert is is an understatement @nottmhospitals I hope you realise how complex and vulnerable Haem patients are, and how utterly dangerous this is, letting medically unqualified people play registrar in an extremely complex speciality 1/
Here is my two cents on the Leng Review. As has been pointed out by others, it is a masterpiece of neutrality and diplomacy. Full of hedging and circumlocution. Not definitive. Written to be spun in every single way. The short-term recommendations are strong enough: 1/
You have 0 clue how healthcare works and because you're not a dr you don't know what the issues are. I can see more routine cases than 2 PAs put together. What I need is someone to do the nonsense admin/ non clinical work which is 70% of the time I use.
The NHS & wider public sector has turned into an utter 🤡 show because Dunning-Kruger lanyard-class grifters promoted beyond their natural levels of competency far outnumber those who are good at what they do in an appropriately qualified role
The NHS is ideologically & unilaterally captured from top to bottom on the issues of gender It is the same organisational scandal that facilitated thousands upon thousands of underage working class white girls to be groomed in UK towns & cities across the country
Day 3 | PM Session | Peggie v NHS Fife & Dr Upton 🧊 “She Had Alternatives”: NHS Fife Weaponised Policy Against a Woman Who Spoke the Truth By the end of Day 3’s afternoon session, the shape of NHS Fife’s disciplinary logic stood exposed: a woman nurse raised a sex-based…
Never forget the period in this country’s Public Health history when “The Science™️”, & those who virtuously championed it, lost all credibility
I’m all for celebrating achievements, but this should not be combined. I would have been fuming if I’d had to share the FRCA ceremony with AAs…
Time to recognise the dedication and brilliance of our new Advanced Clinical Practitioners, MRCEM and FRCEM diplomates who are lining up for their moment on the stage! It's going to be an inspiring day #rcemdiploma
