Now that generic abiraterone is available, the cost-effectiveness will be far better than before. Clinical effectiveness is already proven

I find it amazing that MPs are able to say with a straight face that it’s unreasonable of doctors to have expected their salaries to keep up with living costs, when MP salaries have increased 28% since 2010. But Drs asking for a similar amount to restore pay are “unreasonable”.

Selvaseelan Selvarajah BBC News (UK) Gas heating engineer quoted me his day rate for changing valves on our radiators. £900 for 8h. That's £112.50 per hour. He looks to be in his late 20s. Good for him, but he is in no way as skilled, talented or well-trained as the junior doctor earning £28/h at end of training

You can’t argue with these numbers from the Financial Times can you Steve Barclay ? ‘Nurses and doctors have seen a much steeper decline in real terms pay than the average British worker’ Just look at this, shameful:

Critics of striking medics argue that everyone is suffering at the moment. But doctors & nurses have had it worse. Recent inflation has taken the average UK worker’s real wages 2.5% below their 2009 level, but earnings are down 13% for nurses and 24% (!) for junior doctors.

A massive THANK YOU to Ben Ayres for his dedication, hard work and passion in organising the London Urology Deanery teaching over the years. He did not let COVID affect the quality of teaching the London trainees received 👏

“Exercise may help inhibit tumor growth, improve quality of life by decreasing fatigue & anxiety, build muscle mass, increase physical function, & reduce surgical complications and treatment delays” Just think of the benefits for your patients and the NHS - it’s a win win 🏆

In the UK junior doctors currently start on £29,384 Is it really any wonder they are leaving for other countries in their droves?

Just returned from a medical trip to Dublin. Irish junior docs paid x 2-3 UK. Irish Consultants x2 UK. Amazing. 20% would be gob smacking. 200-300% seemingly unbelievable but true.

Must say, I'm not a huge fan of the archaic ceremonial stuff but these troopers do a bloody good job for the tourist industry and public relations. Gently and safely moving the horse in for a better shot. What a beautiful moment.
