GP teams work tirelessly to immunise children despite DNAs & non-engagement. Multiple invites & personalised approaches. Information is clear = immunisation schedule. RCPCH don’t blame us for wider system failing. Lincolnshire LMC General Practice #teamGP pulsetoday.co.uk/news/clinical-…

An extra 1.26 million GP appointments could be delivered each month, if all newly trained GPs could find a job. The Government needs to fix the GP unemployment crisis, so more patients can get the care they need. bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/… #endGPunemployment

Positive meeting today with ULHT Haematology over a potential locally commissioned service for MGUS and CLL monitoring in GP. Viably commissioned services close to the patient by the GP team who know them best is the kind of left shift we need. Lincolnshire LMC ✅✅✅

Preparing deflection to blame us. 🤦 If NHS fails, it’s not down to us.💪 If NHS fails, it’s on ⁦⁦⁦Wes Streeting⁩ and HMG.✅ For the nation’s health, value us with real investment, not soundbites. ⁦General Practice⁩ ⁦⁦Lincolnshire LMC⁩ theguardian.com/society/2025/s…

GPC England has voted to enter dispute with Government from 1 October over unsafe contract changes. GPs fear ‘unlimited’ online consultation requests will ‘open the floodgates’ without safety measures, inadvertently making patient access more difficult. bma.org.uk/news-and-opini…

Great to update the brilliant Lincolnshire PMs on the contractual changes of 1st October. All need to know the risks and for Wes Streeting to agree that patient & staff safety must take priority over his GP access agenda. Lincolnshire LMC The IGPM KayKeane FRSA MIGPM (she/her) #SafetySafetySafety

My local convenience shop is ⬆️ 🫰& offers ⬇️ services than a supermarket. Convenience = ⬆️ 💷 ⁦Wes Streeting⁩ & ⁦Stephen Kinnock⁩. Healthcare should be about quality & safety not convenience & haircuts. ⁦General Practice⁩ ⁦Lincolnshire LMC⁩ pulsetoday.co.uk/views/2025-26-…

Simply unbelievable. HMG deploys UNSAFE contractual changes ✅ HMG tells patients to complain if GP doesn’t comply with UNSAFE changes ✅ HMG flagrantly risking patient safety ✅ HMG wants votes at any cost. 🤦 ⁦Lincolnshire LMC⁩ ⁦General Practice⁩ pulsetoday.co.uk/news/2025-26-c…

Unlimited appointment requests + no more GPs = waiting lists “End the 8am rush” = create GP waiting lists. We warned Wes Streeting Stephen Kinnock The Labour Party Maybe listen to General Practice. We are the experts in how changes impact. #safetynotvotes Lincolnshire LMC thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

“Plough on regardless” 🤦‍♂️ Ignore the warnings 🤦‍♂️ First Hairdressers & now Cartels 🤦‍♂️ If we had control of “prices” of services, patient health & GP would flourish. Fancy supporting that ⁦⁦Wes Streeting⁩? Lincolnshire LMC⁩ ⁦⁦General Practice⁩ gponline.com/streeting-atta…

Are HMG distancing themselves from the evidence of ⁦General Practice⁩ to claim plausible deniability when ⁦Wes Streeting⁩ plans for GP fail? ⁦The Labour Party⁩ your voters trust doctors & know who has their best interests at ❤️ ⁦Lincolnshire LMC⁩ pulsetoday.co.uk/news/politics/…

General Practice⁩ has working patiently, openly & in best interests of patient safety throughout. Lack of progress & broken promises by HMG are the cause. Don’t try to divide our great profession when GPs need each other more than ever ⁦Wes Streeting⁩ pulsetoday.co.uk/news/politics/…
