Privileged to deliver the Chair’s update from BMA Consultants on behalf of Vishal Sharma to The BMA LNC Chairs Conference today. Proud of the progress that we have made to save the profession and the NHS, but much more to do!

Excellent talk at BMA LNC Chairs conference by Lucy Kerr The BMA senior policy advisor on sexism in medicine highlighting the work that we all need to do to tackle it. The Worker Protection Act 2023 comes into force in October 2024

This election is a chance to turn around a health service in crisis. All parties must make the health of all their top priority, so we can give the public the care they deserve. Read our manifesto bma.org.uk/GEmanifesto

Important update: really pleased that The Labour Party have listened to the warnings of BMA Pensions Committee about reintroducing #LTA. This will give much needed certainty to doctors and retain them in the NHS. They must also look at the tapered AA if they want their overtime plan to work.

Front page of the Financial Times is Josephine Cumbo's excellent article on The Labour Party ditching their plans to reintroduce the LTA. Pleased Wes Streeting James Murray listened to lobbying over last from 14month by BMA Pensions Committee on risks re this. But the dreaded taper tax remains!

Rishi Sunak seems confused about his pay dispute with doctors. #BattleForNumber10 Strikes are NOT to blame for waiting lists, which were already at a record high before any strikes started. And junior doctors are NOT the only group in dispute, as he’s already been reminded 👇

I have had senior leadership in NHS England Workforce, Training and Education NHS England not happy for pointing this out ever since the LTWP was published I will say it again Maths does not add up This is undeliverable without cutting/freezing wages (good luck with that) & huge upturn in productivity (hmm)

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: many senior doctors desperate to help waiting lists & would be willing to give up evenings/weekends to help out. But current tax rules will mean some could end up #PayingToWork 👇 RT if you want Wes Streeting James Murray to fix this ludicrous tax trap
