I’m simply horrified to see @NHSEngland now literally breaking the law in how it misrepresents physician associates & other allied health professional - who are NOT doctors - to the public. These posters are from the Bradford District & Craven Health & Care Partnership. 1/n

9/ I urge @RishiSunak to correct the @CommonsLiaison record on these serious erros... Even @DailyMailUK readers rank the NHS top of YOUR own pledges. RT if you want gov to fix waiting lists, please get back to the table with serious offers to "settle" these disputes

I’ve just read this in the gym with my ear buds in. Having spent the last two days operating all day. I laughed out loud. How dare he say that. We were not making good progress before strikes. We have NO Staff, we have no beds, the roof is falling in. Deluded

@RNAppleby: I am a NHS consultant. I am financially comfortable, in a job I love, so why am I striking tomorrow? Answer: Because the next generation will not be able to live off what I do today....

28/ Addendum 1 - I understand that in relation to tweet 16 the Nuffield analysis is no longer based on predicted 22/23 pay data, but now known 22/23 pay data. The criticism remains that this is a different time period, deliberately misrepresented by @SkyNews

27/ The bottom line is that pay has been destroyed in the NHS whether measure of inflation is used. Ministers may gaslight that strikes are causing waiting lists, but they are not. Waiting lists are a #PoliticalCHOICE RT if you want this/next government to #FixPay #RETENTION

1/ VITAL🧵 So people have had a couple of days to digest the DDRBs "independent" reports & their imposition by governemnt. TLDR;they represent further MASSIVE pay cuts. Lets start with some history and look at what happened BEFORE the current high inflation Pls read all/RT

1/ IMPORTANT🧵: Its been a busy week. A new #workforceplan- (supposedly) #RETENTION central to it, to help #CutWaitingLists. But something is missing from the plan... a plan for PAY. I produced that chart 👇 2 months ago, new pay & wait data are just in - pls read to end & RT!

Did you know over 14,000 people were turned away from the polls in the wake of the Government’s new voter ID rules? 🤯 glplive.org/5by

The government argument that higher public sector pay will bump up inflation was debunked by leading economist @MyStephanomics on @bbclaurak this morning. She says: ‘That’s not something economists tend to agree with’

This is an intentional attempt to try and mislead the public. Thanks to the efforts of our consultant and SAS colleagues to keep patients safe, there was no change in mortality trends during strike action. 3/3

The appearance of two Doctor Who's on #PayRestoration picket lines is awesome. Support from Peter Capaldi and @4SylvesterMcCoy is very much appreciated. Have any other incarnations been spotted? #JuniorDoctorsStrike

Is it not time all tapers got in the bin? Personal allowance taper, annual allowance taper and high income childcare benefit These tax cliffs just don’t work and create barriers to growth, work and productivity

Replying to @TheIFS
A parent with a 1 year-old and a 2-year old in England, paying an hourly rate for 40 hours a week for childcare, could see their disposable income fall by £14.5k if their pre-tax pay crosses £100k. A parent in this situation on £130k would be worse off than one earning £99.9k.
