Hi, ER Doc here. RT if you’ve ever done CPR on someone and they survived. Trying to prove something.

"As a patient and a doctor, I know I'm nothing without a nurse. The more of us who remember this, the closer nurses get to a salary that recognises their value." Jennifer Darlow on why doctors should support nurses’ campaign for fair pay #NursesStrike bmj.com/content/381/bm…

John Burn-Murdoch Financial Times NHS England Transformation Nuffield Trust Office for National Statistics (ONS) Bank of England Office for Budget Responsibility 21/29 Its great that inflation is coming down, but you're still poorer as prices will not come down, just rise more slowly. To fix that your pay needs to rise. And many leading economists have debunked the myth that public sector rises are inflationary x.com/TheBMA/status/…

Outrageous scenes of cops arresting anti-monarchy protestors and stealing their placards So we are not allowed to show public opposition to a bloke being crowned head of state for having been born into unimaginable wealth while ppl line up at food banks and schools fall apart

So much for the right to peaceful protest #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy

You may not like the monarchy but the coronation is a glorious opportunity to celebrate the greatness of Great Britain by parading people who’ve only recently had to resign from their job in disgrace.

Worth a read; I’ve definitely been guilty of sidelining the DBP - almost certainly to patients’ detriment.

🚨NEW Public sector pay would be between 12% and 20% higher if it had increased at the same rate as the private sector since 2010, according to research by Tony Blair Institute for Global Change for #Peston💥 If it matched the finance sector, teachers would be paid a HUGE 28% more 😲 Anushka Asthana📺

Dear 🇬🇧, The current state of UK medicine - a brief 🧵 Exactly 1 week ago, I felt I had no choice but to resign from giving a keynote speech at this year's Royal College of Physicians annual conference. The behaviour of the College leadership left me no choice. 1/n x.com/doctor_oxford/…

The NHS GP shortage is indeed deliberate & manufactured. A national scandal in plain sight to leave 1000s of would-be GPs unemployed or untrained while quietly replacing them with PAs as GP substitutes.

Emergency Medicine competition ratios for the last decade: 2024 - 7.57 2023 - 4.99 2022 - 4.45 2021 - 3.95 2020 - 2.48 2019 - 2.14 2018 - 1.90 2017 - 1.99 2016 - 2.21 2015 - 2.43 2014 - 2.10 2013 - 2.60 I worry we’ll lose some fantastic future EM colleagues if this continues.
