Dear GMC, further to your Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service hearing and outcome against Dr Sarah Benn, for protesting about climate change, please invite Dr Dan Poulter, a Conservative MP who has recently defected to the Labour Party.

Under our oath to 'do no harm',

In case you are unaware. The shortage of GPs and other specialists is purposefully created.

Happy St George's Day everyone. A day to celebrate a Greek Roman soldier who never visited England.
Also a day to regret the passing of the #RwandaBill that would probably apply to St George if he came looking for asylum from the threat of crucifixion for his Christian faith.

Tory MPs have just voted again to insist that Afghans who worked for our armed forces & who put their own lives at risk for our country can be sent to Rwanda.

Against military advice.

And against the pledges Ministers made to support those who supported us

How are we meant to be proud of our country when our revolting excuse of a government and our unelected House of Lords push through legislation that makes villains of us all?

To borrow a phrase 'I want my country back'

#RwandaNotInMyName

So the Rwanda bill becomes law, with Britain an inspiration to the extreme right across Europe. Summary deportation with no right of appeal, some manacled in 21st century convict flights. If the ECHR dares to challenge, we leave that. All to reflect “ the people’s will”. Not mine

Join our demo outside the Royal College of Physicians this Thursday, let them know we won't be fobbed off with fake Doctors.
Bring banners, placards, union flags, drums, whistles
This has been kept quiet far too long, let's make a noise!

Thought for the day. 👇

One way to cut waiting lists, in the long term and in a sustainable, affordable way, is to promote better health, health has many more facets than just hospitals and clinical settings.

I tried to articulate some of these issues and suggestions with Andrew Pierce and

As the House of Commons debates the Tobacco & Vapes Bill this afternoon, the College urges all MPs to back the Bill. We believe this ground-breaking legislation can help create a smoke free generation and protect young people from devastating smoking harms. #SmokeFreeGeneration

Nicotine is highly addictive.

I agree with our Professor Chris Whitty

GB News, 'What do you make of the Mayor of Brussels shutting down #NatConBrussels2 where Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman were speaking at?'

Jonathan Ashworth, 'I'm a champion of free speech.. But I am surprised that Suella Braverman is a speaker there because some of the

Dear,
@victoriaatkins, Wes Streeting MP, Rishi Sunak & The Labour Party thank you for your clear support for the the Tobacco and Vapes Bill.

On this issue, history and my lectures on heroes and villains of public health will judge you right.

Whatever you do, don't listen to the

Why has GMC not stated that PAs are not doctors, and PAs must not replace doctors?

BREAKING: This is not Gaza.

This is Ramallah in the West Bank.

Armed Israeli settlers are on a rampage burning Palestinian homes and terrorizing Palestinian families.

This is not self-defense. It’s terrorism.

I’m not sure how much clearer I can be…

Or one that chooses which specialty to work in like picking a paint colour👇🏼.
