In an independent BMA poll, 9/10 members of the public said consultants should be paid competitively, comparable to competitor countries, 9/10 wanted their care overseen by a senior doctor. 84% were worried about the long term stability of the NHS without this. Link follows.

Ballot results back. We have written to government demanding an early meeting. This needs resolving.

Consultants and SAS doctors - have you still not voted in your ballots? You haven't missed your chance, there's still a few ways to get your ballot in at the last minute. Make sure your voice is heard.

@TheBMA Hi, GP here, any chance of speaking up for us for a change, we're in real danger of being worse off than the residents soon...

If your finances are a barrier to taking part in the upcoming resident doctor strikes, then support is available. The BMA Strike Fund exists to help those who may otherwise struggle to strike, ensuring more of us can take part. If you know a colleague who might be in this situation, encourage them to apply here: bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/…

Get it in the post! A proper contractual number of SPA, shorter PA length (3.5 hours), better recognition of OOH & overnight interruptions, MYPD, Welsh top pay point as a down payment, access to pension you’ve paid for without employer ‘permission’ and more, #DemandBetterVoteYes

Get that vote in the post. Fully contractual SPA is the lifebelt you need so you can spend time improving your service rather than drowning. #DemandBetterVoteYes

@helenvecht @LucyGoBag In my 40 years working in the NHS it evolved from being an incredible idealistic social enterprise that many of us viewed as a political statement and an honour to work in, into a damaging toxic workplace that is harmful to patients and staff The bank of goodwill is rightly empty

@irrespolong @jotalbotbowen @PhilSmithIsBack @medicalmodelbri @doctor_oxford I was offered a Physicians' Associate for my team to 'See & Treat patients in A&E' so my Doctors could get on with Discharge Summaries! I refused the offer. Shame, because there was so much mundane work a PA could do to enable my Doctors to see patients in A&E.

And this has been worsened by the attached graph. It's nothing to do with lack of effort by NHS staff but lack of the investment needed in infrastructure; beds, kit, theatres & support staff.

If you half the number of hospital beds it doesn’t require a team of management consultants to work out why patients are stuck in corridors 🤷‍♂️

The government used 1000 additional specialty training posts "as leverage and has stymied the pipeline of future consultants and GPs. This approach not only penalises doctors but ultimately harms patients." @DrLukeCraddock on the resident doctor strike bmj.com/content/393/bm…

Streeting has yet to address this anomaly, or the fact he's fazing Drs out. The public needs to get wise as to what the strikes are really about. Drs are being ignored, they 're being replaced with substandard substitutes. £25-£75k a year to fund PAs The writings on the wall.
