“Next time you can’t see your GP, you’re waiting double digit hours in A&E, or wait over a year to see a specialist, ask if secure employment for Drs sounds unreasonable. Our unemployment crisis is a public health crisis." Vital piece by @jatinderhayre.bsky.social metro.co.uk/2025/12/17/w...

How will A&E function if 85% of hospital activity moves to 'the community'? Why the massive reorganisation & privatisation? @sectorsocial.bsky.social

We spoke to Resident Dr @andrewmeyerson.uk about why he's out on strike this week: "It's shocking; we have the longest waiting list in history at the same time that we have historic levels of Dr unemployment. That's unacceptable; and it's why we're fighting back." www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWTc...

Mike Scott of Notts Keep Our NHS Public said: "Over £40bn of debt is still to be repaid years later. To make a profit, private companies overcharge the NHS, whereas the public sector can build at cost so there's no possibility that private could be cheaper." westbridgfordwire.com/the-nhs-is-s...

🚨BREAKING: #NHS patients are outside Wes Streeting's office after waiting 392 days for a meeting. Meanwhile, Wes has found time to accept £220k+ from private healthcare linked donors. So today they came to his office and only then did he FINALLY agree to meet with them.

This winter, #NHS staff across the country will be battling horrific conditions whilst trying to save lives & provide care for patients. Sign our digital Christmas card to show your support and gratitude 💙⬇️ actionnetwork.org/forms/sign-t...

Baron John Hutton, always a close Tony Blair supporter, unsurprisingly gives private finance initiative (PFI/PPP/LIFT) a thumbs-up. He’s disingenuous at best, compromised as Association of Infrastructure Investors in Public Private Partnerships (AIIP) Chair. PFI stinks @keepournhspublic.bsky.social

Proud to have worked with Michael and others on this and I think it's fair to say that the whole team feel the same. We gave families, healthcare workers and keyworkers a vital voice at a time of unimaginable hardship when no one else was listening.

NHS got literally two lines of mention in the #budget and that was mostly to celebrate the loss of 18,000 workers, dismissed as "back office staff". Many of these people (who do btw include clinical staff) worked through covid, and they provide vital admin support to frontline clinicians.

This is disgusting. I can’t afford to get divorced, I can’t afford to pay the bills or mortgage, I have zero savings and I have a maxed-out credit card. I’ve cancelled my Xmas. And I’m in a senior clinical post. If that’s my life, I can’t even imagine what it’s like for my domestic colleagues. 😡😢😡😢😡

Boris Johnson was ‘economical with the truth’ in testimony at @ukcovid-19inquiry.bsky.social about his gaps in work during Feb’20 when his and Govt inaction, as Italy faced Covid hell, made it inevitable the UK would suffer a disastrous, avoidable death toll. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

It is Streeting holding our NHS doctors, nurses, staff & patients - to ransom - NOT the other way round. ❗️Don’t fund investment in the NHS by suppressing NHS staff wages ❗️42% of resident doctors ending their 2yrs foundation are unable to find a job ❗️1000s of drs forced abroad youtu.be/5pwmKpfgHA8

I find the glee here about making thousands of hard working NHS staff redundant - and simultaneously therefore ensuring that clinical staff's workloads are increased even further with administration tasks they didn't sign up for - both tone deaf and distasteful.

Consider supporting this: Did you know NHS health workers are being bullied, threatened, suspended and investigated by the GMC, accused of anti-semitism for expressing opposition to genocide in Palestine. This legal defence fund is necessary to defend them. www.crowdjustice.com/case/nhs-pal...

Please sign and share this petition calling for full access to Covid vaccine. My GO isn’t offering it and sends people to the local pharmacy - who are also NOT OFFERING it. The updated one with best immunological effect is needed but it’s only available for £100 privately! c.org/MjDDfJBmtV

Our Co-Chair @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social spoke to @voiceofislamuk.bsky.social yesterday about the govt's plans for reform of the NHS and the need to safeguard the model: "We know from the evidence that it's the cheapest, safest, most cost effective health system..."

Health and care workers died as a result of these con artists trying to make a fast buck. Anything less than prison time is insufficient. news.sky.com/story/firm-l...

As Keir Starmer purges the left and dances to Nigel Farage’s xenophobic tune, I look at how Labour's mounting failures created an opening for @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social @zarahsultana.bsky.social to found a new left-wing party. Check out my latest for @thenation.com

Our Co-Chair @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social said of Streeting's focus on private health sector spending: “That switch towards the private sector is a real death blow to the NHS if it carries on." www.thenation.com/article/worl...

Our Co-Chair @drjohnpuntis.bsky.social writes: "Trump is still a danger to the NHS, but so are politicians who continue to welcome contracts with US companies apparently without considering the risks and consequences of total dependency in the years to come." morningstaronline.co.uk/article/trum...

The NHS isn't an 'ecosystem' to be divvied up between private interests. It's OUR service & must remain THE NHS providing healthcare for all. We won't let Alan Milburn, Streeting & this govt downgrade our NHS to just 1 provider amongst private companies. Watch 👇👇👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWUj...

Outsourcing any aspect of healthcare to the private sector, instead of properly resourcing the NHS, ultimately harms the NHS and us by extension.

We absolutely CANNOT return to a system like PFI where private companies profit from the taxpayer at a cost of £billions in interest, often while providing poor service and poor value for money. Repost if you agree 👊 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Our Co-Chair @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social said: "Streeting’s commitment to private sector partnership runs through the 10yr Health Plan like a stick of rock.

For far too long now, patients have been left waiting hours for help that should arrive in minutes. Too many have died at home, or in ambulances stuck outside overwhelmed hospitals. The human cost and trauma for all concerned are devastating. Fund our NHS. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

“The answer is not just to threaten perpetrators with the full force of the law but to tackle the root causes. Patient flow would improve immensely if social care services were put on a sound footing rather than being omitted from the long-term plan for the NHS“ @drjohnpuntis.bsky.social

Universal access to a GP is the cornerstone of the NHS. But govt intends to contract with private sector to build neighbourhood centres & provide primary care - and to shift funds from hospitals to community, when both are essential for safe healthcare. www.morningstaronline.co.uk/article/camp...
