UK folks, super important. Photo ID will be required to vote for the next election, but University IDs won't work, risking the silencing of young voices. Students can now get a suitable photo ID for FREE from NUS UK 👇Please RT nus.org.uk/photo-id

Just in case you thought that it was industrial action by nurses & doctors that created waiting lists for hospital treatments, here's something from Financial Times

Most senior Drs near the end of their careers have been well paid & due to this have good pensions Drs coming after them are receiving on average 25% less & the pension will be similar (based on earnings) Senior Drs like myself are fighting for the future our future care givers

I’m an oncologist and I love my job. But I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing our patients with cancer and I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing its workforce. lucygossage.com/my-reasons-for… #ConsultantsStrike

#ConsultantsStrike I AM STRIKING FOR THE FUTURE OF THE NHS. This gov is purposefully squeezing pay and conditions of all NHS staff + undermining whole service. Intention is privatisation + pushing staff to the private sector. I stand with all my other public sector colleagues ✊

I defy anyone to read this extraordinarily candid, harrowing & heartbreaking account of the truth of a crippled NHS oncology system & not burn with rage for how this government has decimated the NHS & failed NHS patients. Please, please read & share 😔 lucygossage.com/my-reasons-for…

A huge thanks to the art students Gateshead College who designed this amazing wallpaper for our bare wall on Cragside. A great collaboration. Huge gratitude to those who donated to @QECharity to make this possible.

Another Express poll needs correcting. The link below takes you straight to the poll, avoiding all the horrid ads on their website. (Ignore the request for an email address. It works without.) Please spread the word so that this can look healthier soon! xd.wayin.com/display/contai…

The lowest paid MPs have seen their pay packets swell by over £20,000 over the last 14 years, with the rise this April representing a 31.7% cash terms increase compared to 2010/11 levels Over the same period Drs including GPs have seen theirs fall 26% Rishi maths doesn’t add up

So much smearing & belittling of consultants in the press, but this, from today’s The Times and The Sunday Times letters page, could not have put it more beautifully. Pls RT if you agree. #NHS 💙

A university education used to be free and now costs £30,000. Don't think the Tories couldn't do something like that to the NHS.
