  1. My Mum was in hospital for a couple of weeks, and was recently moved to rehab. It bears repeating, repeatedly, that for all their faults the NHS and all who work there, are bloody marvelous. #nurses #nhs #supportthenhs

  3. #Barclay, the Health Minister, said on Monday that all retiring consultant doctors enjoy a tax-free pension.

    This attempt to castigate their legitimate wage demands, framing them as being well off, is fallacious. All pensions are subject to taxation.

  7. Having spent the last few days surround by the incredible NHS staff of my local hospital I honestly can’t imagine being without them and find it absolutely disgraceful how they have been treated and underfunded over consecutive UK governments.

  9. A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said: “We hugely value the work of nurses"...
    but we won't pay them what they deserve, need, and are owed after repeated negative increases because of the high inflation this government has created.

  11. Throughout the #Covid pandemic, #nurses, more than any other occupation, died at a faster rate.

    They cared and tirelessly looked after our own loved ones all the while their friends and colleagues were passing.

    For these courageous people to be denied a basic wage increase by a Conservative government of millionaires is both obscene and shameful.

    I can't help thinking pissing off the nurses in the middle of a pay dispute is a really, REALLY dumb thing to do.

  17. Last night polling (by Ipsos) found that 54% if the population support the #JuniorDoctors strike.... the Q. is how will this play out during the week?

    The media will try to demonise the Junior Doctors, but the problem is that the idea that junior doctors are greedy, does not stack up well against a government of millionaires (and millionaires' friends) & this is a circle it may be hard to square for even the right-media.

  19. Just had some joinery done on my shoulder in a 3.5 hour op. The theatres were full even though it's the weekend.

    I can honestly say every single NHS person has been polite, welcoming and professional as they work to reduce the backlog.

    It's been an exceptionally positive experience and these people should be paid much more than they are.

    As a high earner I would welcome a tax rise to ensure everyone continues to get this kind of service.

  20. If you were willing to applaud on your doorstep but unwilling to support striking NHS workers then you don’t support the NHS, you support making yourself feel better.

  21. "He hated games they made the world look too simple. Chess, in particular, had always annoyed him. It was the dumb way the pawns went off and slaughtered their fellow pawns while the king lounged about doing nothing. If only the pawns would've united ... the whole board could've been a republic in about a dozen moves."

    Absolutely! Have you seen this from Every Doctor? It seems worth taking a couple of minutes to lobby your MP ... even though mine's Rees-Mogg it's important they know how we feel.

  26. @jujuliagrace I loved your work for EveryDoctor on Twitter!

    Mastodon is different. There's no search function! Only #. So #EveryDoctorUK #NHS and #SupportTheNHS point here to help people find you!

    Alt text is vital because #Accessibility is a core value here and many people (including me) won't boost images without alt-text.

    Lists are VERY important. When you put some people on a list it makes a custom timeline going fwd! Tooot and Tusky apps are great for that!
