Veterans are being told by UK gov that they've wrongly been overpaid on pensions and need to pay it back.
Fella on news this am has been told to pay back £30k+
Question is, how do veterans know these payback figures are correct if they miscalculated the original sums? 🤔

Also what consideration is bring given to veterans mental health and wellbeing too? Suddenly being presented with a bill for such large sums could push vets with PTSD over the edge

Hear hear! Especially if that patient is in a vulnerable position due to ill health. (Clinical depression, UTI confusions, unconscious etc)
Thank you for saying this!!!
Amidst the fierce debate around ACPs and ANPs on medical rotas, the use of doctor and consultant by those other than medical practitioners in healthcare settings and the changes proposed to medical training and in the NHS 10 year plan…
…we should all agree - @RCPhysicians @theRCN @gmcuk @DHSCgovuk @MidwivesRCM @rc_pharm @TheBMA @DAUK_GP @TheDA_UK @RCSnews @RCEMpresident @RCObsGyn - the onus should not be on the patient to decipher whether the person seeing them is a doctor or not

Thank you Jack for pursuing this and shame on @MetCC for these responses frankly!
That poor cat. 😢
Hi @MetCC are you actually investigating this guy dumping a cat next to a flytip as a crime? I've done half your job by getting the exact date and time + footage of it happening, but your officers seem very confused as to whether you're investigating it as a crime.

*THIS*!! So much THIS!
Gongs given to managers who put their own personal agrandisement above patient welfare is disgusting!
Who goes onto health care and accepts a gong for doing that vocation? 🤯😬🫣
We are in the throes of the worst leadership in NHS healthcare
Beset by COI, hubris and a desperate desire for gongs.
The falling outcomes of the NHS are not a surprise
It’s not the politicians but the lack of honesty from health care leadership which will sink the NHS.

What are you doing for Wales? Are you going to look at the funding formulas so we can offer similar to residents here?
On Weds I had a motion passed at Bridgend council to push for fair rates taxes across Wales so traders are equitable with English ones. That needs funding!🏴

My motion was for our Leader (labour) to write to @RhunapIorwerth about this inequality in business rates, but he can't do anything with the funding formulas being addressed too.
So when will Wales' residents & traders here get a fair deal on a par with England @andyburnham🤷🏽♂️

Wow, just wow.
Dreadful attitude from their Counsel.
At a recent Court of Appeal hearing, the GMC continued to argue that it doesn't have a duty of care to doctors. This comes after an NHS doctor tragically took his own life within hours of receiving a letter from the regulator.
Join our campaign to reform the GMC: bma.org.uk/GMCreform
ALT Graphic with the headline: “The GMC says it has no duty of care to doctors”. A quote attributed to a Court of Appeal judge asks whether the GMC’s position is that it has effective impunity, can make mistakes in its communications, cause harm to registrants, and then say it has no duty of care so cannot be sued. A response attributed to counsel for the GMC reads: “Yes... I think that has to be our position.” BMA logo at the bottom.

@Steve_Crossman thank you for talking about epilepsy on @bbcbreakfast and raising awareness of what to do when someone has a seizure.
It's so key! 💜💜💜

Hi Sera,
Pls can @Plaid_Cymru take a look at the schools having to work in a budget deficit because of Labour's budget cuts of 6% here in Bridgend in the last 3 years.
Heads are having to make *really* tough choices as a result & it's pushing their mental health & wellbeing.
📚💫To support the education workforce and help raise standards in schools across Wales, Plaid Cymru will increase teacher training incentives for priority subjects to £20,000 from September 2026.

I just laughed my head off at @Keir_Starmer response to @LSRPlaid question.
Investment in rail in Wales, is he joking?? Do we *still* have to go via another country to go to Aberystwyth or did I sleep through the opening of that brand new line in Wales?? 🤯🤯🏴🏴🏴🙄

‼️‼️BRITISH PUBLIC ‼️‼️
pls fill in this consultation and pass it alone too by giving it a RT.
The GMC need to be told your views on PAs etc.
Link to consultation in @medicalmodelbri thread (2nd post)
Thanks folks. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
‼️‼️ BRITISH PUBLIC ‼️‼️
There’s a public consultation that you might not even be aware of which will impact YOU and your family .
The @gmcuk is working hard to destroy medicine and PAs are working hard to keep the ‘associate’ title
This is your opportunity to respond .
Watching the tribute to John Kear & Geoff Oakes by @WTrinityRL
Lovely tributes.
John was such a nice kind fella when we were shirt sponsors @ Trin.
I like to think him & my Uncle David (Farrow, ex Chair at Batley during Original crown Flatts era) will be catching up.

He'll be much missed by many and my sincere condolences to his family.
His legacy of kindness, humility and straight talking will live long in my heart and that of many others.
RIP John.

Just to be clear, if "his condition further deteriorated and the arresting officer began CPR" he was dead. That is a pretty serious "deterioration"
Judge William Mosley KCs comments are as bad as the killer's lies and the police's inaction in my opinion.
He's a complete shill.
On the murder of Henry Nowak by Vickrum Singh Digwa, it is worth reading this paragraph, below, of Judge William Mousley KC's sentencing remarks.
While we await the investigation, the judge probably has the most complete view of what happened - and the impact of Digwa's lies:

You really are a disgrace Kier.
You should resign now.
This an awful, shocking case.
Henry’s loved ones have gone through the trauma of a long trial and endured Henry's killer making up appalling claims about their son who was thoughtful, kind and deeply loved.
It is right that the IOPC is investigating the police’s response to his senseless murder. And we must end the cycle of tragedy by tackling the horror of knife crime.
Henry’s family, friends, his university and the city of Southampton will continue to feel his loss, and our thoughts will always be with them.

There needs to be a serious review of this judge too. He seems entirely to be acting as an apologist for the police and the murderer.
The video of Henry dying is almost three minutes long before police bothered with an ambulance. There was light coming from the house.

Energy prices are to rise with the rise of the "energy prices cap"
It's not a cap then is it? 🤯😡🤬
And once again the consumers are being ripped off again!
