"Don't forget" 14 years of Tory pain summed up in 41 seconds of pure fire. This is like watching Bruce Banner become the Hulk for the first time.

As the Tories pander to the prejudices and hard-right agenda of Nigel Farage and his supporters, it’s become clear that what’s at stake in this election is nothing less than what it means to be British. [THREAD]

Analysis from The Health Foundation shows that the UK spends less per person on the NHS There is no point complaining that we don't have a wagyu ribeye if we're only prepared to pay for a big mac If we want a world class NHS we need to pay for it And outsourcing NHS services to private

Great news that we now have Teclistamab, another BCMA bispecific antibody available as well as Elranatamab for myeloma patients. But still more work to do to widen access to Pomalidomide exposed patients.

Prof Dr Kevin Fong giving the most devastating and moving testimony to the Covid Inquiry of visiting hospital intensive care units at the height of the second wave in late Dec 2020. The unimaginable scale of death, the trauma, the loss of hope. Please watch this 2min clip.

These stats, just released, are a national scandal. Over 15,000 doctors applied to GP training this year. Yet NHS England is letting only 4000 of them do so. Yes. That’s 11k potential new GPs lost to the NHS - when we’re crying out for GPs. Many replaced with PAs - madness.

This really is incredible. I spent half of the pandemic working on medical wards and the other half working in ITU. At times I wore bin bags that I had to make my own arm holes in with flimsy paper masks on the ward and had full respiratory PPE in ITU. It was clearly insufficient

At #Leicester railway station ticket office just witnessed the most wonderful customer service by East Midlands Railway (EMR) ticket office staff (Sarah). Distressed customer (family event) buying a ticket - comforted, supported and offered a drink. Really lovely to see.

Really difficult question to answer from my 8 year old son last night over dinner. “Daddy, How come Donald Trump can be president if he’s a criminal?” Not sure what the #USAElections2024 have taught children throughout the world 🙁

Plumber came today to sort out a few jobs for us. Kids 8 and 3 were fascinated by what he was doing and followed him around the house to ‘help’. Upon leaving he paid them £10 for their hard work! 🥹

Merry Christmas to all those working in the NHS Many staff in the NHS are grossly underpaid (even on Christmas day👇) but none more so than Resident Doctors who frequently graduate with >£100k debt RT to support them & ask government to pay them ALL fairly #PayRestoration
