@jackLondon i dont care where you choose to define as "the centre"
The #labour party currently wont commit to proper funding of #schools, the #NHS, or #FreeSchoolMeals
In order to avoid a #WealthTax or equalising tax on earned vs investment income
Place that wherever you like on the imaginary left-right spectrum -its still protecting the wealthy at the expense of children

“This adds up to more than 20 years of health centralisation plans – costing billions – and all of it foundered on the shoals of patient trust. Every scandal over centralising patient data also tends to increase the numbers of people exercising their right to “opt out” of sharing.”
@jackLondon
"I guess you are not actually interested in a left of centre party winning..."
Guess again..
I would love a left of centre party to win - a party that will fund the #NHS and not increasingly divert NHS budgets to private "health care"
Peter Thiel, the cofounder of Palantir, the company pitching for a $595 million NHS contract, “compared Britain’s obsession with the NHS to Stockholm syndrome”. In emails leaked to Bloomberg, Palanir have been “taking NHS executives out for £60 watermelon cocktails and plotting ways to “take down political resistance””. The NHS need to keep these pirates away from such a valuable asset.
Doctors in Unite chair Dr Coral Jones explains on Labour List why so many GPs are crying out for change in the #NHS
Well, The Beloved™ is back home with a PICC line and diffuser. She didn't actually get as far as in the door before pointing out that I should've cleaned up that moss.
I'm made up, so glad to have her back.
Thank you, #NHS
This is the level of crisis #Eastamb have reached - their Press Office is so overloaded fielding queries about 999 delays, safeguarding incidents and bullying within the service, its taken *2 years* for them to publish a genuine good news story (a young girl called 999 when her pregnant mum was taken ill, staying calm, giving all the correct info and assisting the paramedics to find the house).
Please write to your MP's now to protest any changes to safeguarding, school uniforms and the Equality Act.
Find your MP - https://members.parliament.uk/members/commons
Education Sec - gillian.keegan.mp@parliament.uk
Health Sec - stephen.barclay.mp@parliament.uk
Even a two line "disagreement with this as a constituent" is helpful.
Call for action, Westminster. 🧵
Anti-trans orgs have been campaigning for a number of years to prevent trans people living full lives but now they have altered tactics. The Equality Act and children are at risk. This is a thread detailing all of these points but the main one - please write to your political representatives.

Huge relief is hearing today that I'm permanently excused from #jury service on medical grounds. I had an unexpected call last week to serve on a jury, but with a #progressive #neuro disease leaving me largely #bedbound and #sleeping up to 18 hours per day I was totally unfit for this. Being in #Scotland I needed a medical letter/certificate from my #GP supporting this. All sorted now, and confirmed today by the #Forfar #court. Thanks so much. Big relief. #juryDuty #juryService #Law #Courts #NHS
A good news story. Eight year old Aditi Shankar’s immune system was “reprogrammed” after a stem cell transplant and as a result her body accepted a donor kidney as its own. She is the first kidney transplant patient in the UK not to need lifelong immunosuppressive drugs and is now leading a normal life.

Sexual harassment: Women medics in #NHS 'pressured into sex'

No question
“Can you just check which blood tests they have down because they’ve got it wrong before?”
“Yes, u & e, liver, thyroid and hormone”
“Which hormones?”
“Something beginning with O”
“You mean oestrogen?”
“No, that begins with an E”
“Erm, no it doesn’t” 🫣 #nhs
@jackLondon The idea that policies "put off" voters is bollocks
Having an Ambulance turn up when you need one, schools that wont crush your kids and a functional NHS are not policies that will put voters off
Any party that is unable to argue for policies to deliver this and a plan to pay for it should fuck off

Currently on a break from #Safeguarding Children level 3 #training. Honestly, I have to do this every three years and it remains the most difficult mandatory training I have to undertake. The things they talk about are harrowing, it’s mentally exhausting.
@PoliticalCartoon
I take it from that cartoon that Mr Brookes will not be going to a doctor the next time he is critically ill but relying on a politician to cure him.
He can't be seen to be a hypocrite now can he.

UK NHS strike: Junior doctors join seniors over pay
@nathans420 We are watching this in action with the #NHS in the UK. Yet when we look at the US we can see that the only beneficiaries are big corps and the general public are significantly worse off

Unless 'leaving the #NHS in tatters' was your aim all along.... we can either think the #Tories are incompetent or we can think they know what they wanted.... as they say, the best trick the devil ever pulled off was making people think he didn't exist; I'd say the same for the Tories real NHS strategy....
** On Breast Cancer ** to openly add to this recent Twitter conversation as a trans woman :flag_transgender: (plus because equalities lawyer Robin Moira is a rock)
▫️ My mother had a double mastectomy in her early 40s, BCMA gene unknown
▫️ My ex- had breast cancer earlier this year, I drove her to the operations personally (she's clear now)
▫️ My best female friend from university died of breast cancer before 40
▫️ Last and certainly least, I had an NHS breast recall myself a few months ago after a routine mammogram. It involved the "triple test", including a biopsy. Yes it's scary waiting to find out, but I'm now glad I went through this
Read this and I dare anyone including TERFS and those with 'GC beliefs' to say trans women don't understand, or are not affected by breast cancer
To all women anywhere, please read, boost :boost_requested: but above all -
🗣️ For you, everyone who loves you: GET A MAMMOGRAM

Double doctors' strike - what you need to know
England's #NHS is braced for the first ever joint walkout by junior doctors and consultants this morning.
It's really annoying when services require you to accept a change in their policies or terms of service, but don't provide a summary of the changes so you have to wade through policies and Ts&Cs trying to find what is different from when you last agreed to them.
I'm specifically looking at you #NHS...

On Wednesday, the #NHS #strikes reach a crescendo with the two separate #Doctors walk-outs dovetailing so all doctors are out on strike.
I know I keep saying this, but its worth repeating.
The #Tories are not only engineering the general #NHScrisis they are goading the Doctors into continued action, to serve the political Tories narrative...
Don't be taken in... this balme for these strikes lies with the Govt.
#UK - NHS braced for unprecedented strikes as doctors in England walk out
> Consultants will walk out on Tuesday in a 48-hour stoppage and they will be joined by junior doctors the following day for the first co-ordinated #strike action by both groups in the health service’s 75-year history.
Junior doctors will walk out for 72 hours in total, leaving the #NHS in England only able to provide “Christmas Day” levels of staffing across the four days
https://archive.is/2023.09.18-024756/https://www.ft.com/content/6e942e35-4907-4538-a353-f70033bdedd9

They're rinsing the NHS
Take action!
Big pharma ignores diseases which won’t make them huge profits, meaning millions of people suffer from preventable illnesses each year.

The #NHS is slipping ever further into deficit... the #Treasury has required 'efficiency gains' in return for more cash this winter, there is a new #Coronavirus variant gaining ground (and causing a growth in hospitalisations).... and still, the #Tories won't make a serious attempt to resolve the #doctors' strike... the wreckers are having one more go before the #election.
#NHScrisis is not an accident, its smiling be-suited engineers sit in Downing St.

Despite our best efforts he was confirmed deceased at the hospital"

Decapeptyl (~$100 /m)
$524 every month.
I pay £110 per year / ~$12 per month.
Also I was out of sertraline so the pharmacist said "come in, I'll give you some".
And while I was at the pharmacy, I got a free flu shot (cos I'm a fat squidge).
