Ante Luceum London

I don't normally tap people for money because I like to run. I've also been unable to run like this for a while. Events this week though have spurred me to do this to raise awareness and funds for healthcare in Gaza. The ones being deliberately targeted. www.justgiving.com/page/david-c...

Daughter did the banner. A great turnout in Glasgow yesterday.

Wisest thing I've seen for a while

I'm not sure that the drive to "specialist care" in the NHS can be described as a successful strategy if it's only available for 5 days a week in office hours. So much emphasis on "demand management" for patients to not go to A&E. What about other bits of healthcare?

Unfortunately not in the UK. UK also one of few countrues showing no reduction of tourists to US. This is a worry, I reckon it shows UK full of MAGA Wannabees.

Do you work in EM, but are nervous about dealing with all this "Neurodiversity stuff". Don't worry, we're all a work in progress, the important thing is you're doing the work This day might help along that journey. rcem.ac.uk/events/chang...

Want to know more about navigating Neurodiversity, making an ED safe for everyone and why Equity hasn't been killed off yet? Plus a talk from the great @parthaskar . We're all.a work in progress, the important thing is we're doing the work.

Those making the cuts know patient safety and care will deteriorate. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Privatisation in NHS. So there's £169 million of tax payers money gone to private providers as profits. Think I might have found a better use in say, funding primary and social care better tbh.

Saw the first Swallow of the year today!

First ones out near me!

Great talk from Prof Shweta Gidwani This happens every day. Lots of people in the NHS spend more effort trying to turn down contributing to patient care than actually offering to help because of toxic silo culture. Specialism has worsened this. DOI Generalist

If anyone can get the world out of the shit show playing out right now, it's Women. Happy International Womens Day Smash the Patriarchy

Won't be long now before some wallopers start saying that "Ukraine is a hoax".

Reminder for those Americans hating on Ukraine: Ukraine gave up their nuclear warheads in 1994 after signing a deal with America that guaranteed their security. America has fucked Ukraine over twice.

For EM docs this is like making anaesthetists work without a CO2 monitor and a sats probe. You know someone will die, but you're being told to just get on with it. God forbid we speak the truth, better just pretend it's normal. www.independent.co.uk/news/health/...

We knew from the start medical staff were being targeted The UK medical establishment didn't protest a great deal it has to be said. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Especially if you're in Scotland

Always a relevant song but feels more so now then ever #Raveyardshift youtube.com/watch?v=l2M0...

So this track took me 32 years to ID but it was worth it. #Raveyardshift youtube.com/watch?v=05y6...

Still some hope about though

There has been a lot of disquiet about MSRA in Emergency Medicine applications too recently. I'd love to see our data. DOI co chair RCEM EDI committee

We need to face uncomfortable truths about diversity in our medical workforce - my thoughts for @bmj.com www.bmj.com/content/388/...

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I'm sick of hearing "they'd never do that" over the past few years. History is worth paying attention to.

Saw this quote and it describes so well what a lot of our lives have been like. Time for a change. Time to be free, not licensed Time for some truth, strength, compassion and intellect

Anyone want to bet against AfD winning the German election know we know the tech bros are backing them?

Anyone remember when people voted for Brexit because they were told by Farage Britain would need to be part of a European Army and not NATO. I wonder how he knew that?

So the Marmot report on London last year showed that white working class boys did worse than ethnic minorities at school. When it came to getting jobs though they were the most likely to be hired out of all groups who applied.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

It was clear this was coming. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Mainstream identity politics is believing the entitlements/achievements of white men are earned while feeling anyone who is Black, female, etc only achieved something because they were a “diversity hire.” The “anti-DEI” rhetoric is just a way to sanitise racist, sexist identity politics. It’s scary.

The 20th century has all the history lessons we need. If you're in a fight it's a good idea to have Canada on your side was one of them. Especially against Fascists

Best summary of where we are. Applies to UK too

100 up just in nick of time #AHCC @weare1of100.bsky.social @acidhousecc.bsky.social Check out my activity on Strava: strava.app.link/AumliFMFBQb

Every member of the workforce suspects they want us gone so they can hire somebody cheaper for short term savings but a longer term overall cost.

Whilst a lot in this article is valid, it's quite a concern that the author is burnt out in emergency medicine after 6 weeks, whichever way you look at it. acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:...

Oh look, it's that old chestnut Erasing achievement BBC News - US Air Force removes lessons on black WWII pilots from training www.bbc.com/news/article...

NEW: Why not calling a Nazi salute a Nazi salute puts us in a whole new place of danger. We have to call spades spades or what else is there? open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

Another accurate but depressing thread from an expert on patient flow. He's right. Certain people are the problem and need to go

Must admit that was my first thought. He can't stop himself from bragging.

Better late than never

Very good article summarising why we seem to be making so little progress in our equity work. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/j...
