This is a good start @wesstreeting Keep listening to what the profession needs to put patients first. @doctor_katie @BMA_GP

I met the leader of the BMA’s GP committee today, to listen to their concerns. GPs have been neglected for too long. They are under-resourced, struggling to cope, and patients pay the price. I am committed to fixing the front door to our NHS. x.com/DHSCgovuk/stat…



Great to meet @LabourAlexB this week and discuss keeping GPs at the heart of the community in Huntingdon. Labour and @wesstreeting have promised to listen to what we need to do just that. #GPsareonyourside @doctor_katie @BMA_GP

Can’t see a GP - blame MPs & NHS England Core funding for GP Practices has been cut by £2bn since 2016, enough for an average practice to employ 2 GPs, a Practice Nurse & more admin staff Instead £1.4bn on ARRS ~ additional roles but no GPs or Practice Nurses Patients need GPs

GPC England has spoken: the current 24-25 contract offer is woefully inadequate and puts patients and staffing levels at risk. Watch the video update from @doctor_katie on our next steps, and why GPs should join the BMA to ensure you have your say. bma.org.uk/bma-media-cent…


The Gov, despite opposition from doctors, is pressing ahead with regulating PAs & AAs under the GMC. @Jdjanogly, as my MP, please oppose the draft Anaesthesia Associates and Physician Associates Order 2024 to protect patient safety

'A lifestyle choice to me is going vegan or switching to an electric car. Last time I checked it wasn't being homeless.' Podcaster @MarinaPurkiss criticises Suella Braverman's comments after she said rough sleeping was a 'lifestyle choice.' #SkyPapers trib.al/cnUsOfm

Contrary to the wording, I & @BMA_GP GPC England did not give @uk_biobank permission to support this letter, as @rorycollins knows Sadly, this now affects my trust in how you’ll gain patient consent for their health data if you ignore mine so freely GPs: this is not contractual

So proud to be working alongside the amazing @doctor_katie and the fantastic team at Duxford supporting our local GPs and practices.

I often bleat on about the quality of LMCs and you lot often tell me that I am wrong. Well here is an example of an LMC who are engaged and clearly have GPs backs! Thank you @doctor_katie and @CambsLMC If I could move to Cambs I would! cambslmc.org/wp-content/upl…

GPs up & down the country are literally making themselves ill in the pursuit of caring for their patients. @NHSEngland unhealthy obsession with top down performance management of undeliverable targets must end. We must prioritise our time on those who need us the most not ✅box.

🤯20Months into Pandemic pressures 🤯Incoming Winter Pressures 🤯Worsening workforce pressures 🤯Backlog Pressures Taken together are severely impacting NHS services. 🤯 #OmicronVariant now added into the mix. Time sensitive decisions must be made. I have written to @NHSEngland
