I wish Jess every luck in her future endeavours, but this one has hit me like a punch in the chest. Are we really so flush with talent we can afford to throw motivated, engaged doctors away because they "don't fit the mould"? I suspect I know exactly what she means here, sadly.

This is why I have spent so much of the last five years trying to change the culture associated with being a SAS doctor. It matters, to thousands of careers. I speak of "parity of esteem" because we absolutely don't yet have it. I'm sorry Jess. We just aren't there yet.

If this is Labour's plan for managing the looming winter crisis, then I am horrified. This isn't fixing the problem, it's passing the buck, placing intolerable pressures on my colleagues in A&E & risking the lives of the patients stranded in corridors. thetimes.com/uk/healthcare/…
