The sheer arrogance of Wes Streeting as he indulges in a game of fantasy politics - making out he can clear waiting lists by throwing money at the private sector, when what we desperately need is a fairer tax system to invest properly in NHS staff & facilities.

The only people who would be affected by this national service idea are those who cannot vote! So Sunak would force those with no say in the matter to spend a year of their life being forced to delay progressing their careers or giving up their free weekends.

For the last 14 years as an NHS doctor, I have watched this party, these governments, savage the NHS into a crumbling shell of a once great institution. Deliberate, calculated, shameless destruction.

Only one thing to say. Please, if you still want an NHS, do not vote Tory.

Please someone explain to the Secretary of State for education that biological gender is not binary

This is really worth reading and taking to heart

What a calm, yet powerful message to Sunak

Wise words.

“The NHS sold out its staff.”

Simply heartbreaking that doctors left disabled, broken & suicidal by long COVID - after our PPE was abruptly downgraded - are now preparing to sue the NHS for negligent workplace exposure.

I dearly hope others follow suit.

The situation in the UK is deeply concerning. Health is declining and health inequalities are widening. This is not the case with other European countries. The UK's rankings have gone down since 2014. What a tragic waste of lives UCL The BMJ

The provision for long covid is shocking. My partner has been living with it & there is no recognition or resource for it within the health system. The government wonders why school & work absenteeism are at record highs? There's a hidden epidemic

Shocking data

NEW: we need to talk about NHS staff retention.

At a time when Britain’s healthcare system is acutely short of workers, *1 in 7* UK-trained doctors are practising overseas. No other developed country is like this, which immediately tells you there’s a problem.

Let’s dig deeper:

We could see almost a quarter of Gaza’s population - close to half- a million human beings - dying within a year. Largely deaths from preventable health causes & collapse of the medical system. It’s a crude estimate, but one that is data-driven… theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

This is the reality of the struggles of staff trying to provide care in an overwhelmed and underfunded NHS. Wes Streeting maybe go and take a look and talk to the staff before you say any more. BBC Newsnight @BBCNews go and make a film about this, tell it like it is
