Can't move for discussions about the disproportionately of the result or the fragility of Labour's majority. All true and important - but in terms of the next four years fairly trivial. The brutal reality of a large majority in the Commons is something to behold.

An important moment in our democracy with our next Prime Minister shaking hands with his arch political opponent, Elmo.

Thanks to our fantastic clinical fellows for running a learning event for all Faculty of Medical Leadership and Management - @FMLM_UK clinical fellows this week! It was designed to explain more about our role and remit as a regulator, with a range of leaders from the GMC coming along to talk about the work of their teams. We had lots of helpful feedback – one of our attendees said ‘I understand the processes and statutory role a lot better, which helps me with appreciating the GMC's role and work’. Great to meet you all!😊

I've been my Church's organist for about 15 years. I came back after a long illness and to my dismay an insufferable "child prodigy" had replaced me. She couldn't even reach the pedals. I changed the transpose settings to a random key and she got the offertory notes wrong.

The NHS isn’t short of productivity reviews, but are these reviews asking the right question? Siva Anandaciva asks whether switching the focus to waste would be more useful: kingsfund.org.uk/insight-and…

Thoughts On The NHS’s Productivity Decline

NHS productivity reviews are a tough nut to crack but are they asking the right question? Siva Anandaciva asks whether the focus should be on waste instead.

WE KEEP being told that Al is so clever that it's a potential threat to the existence of the human race and could wipe us all out. If that's the case, before it starts kicking off, why doesn't someone just ask one of these AI bots how to stop it if it does? Yet again it's left to the likes of me to come up with solutions to the world's woes because the boffins simply can't be bothered. Joe Smith, Exeter

I'm delighted to see the @Moorfields video A&E eye service mentioned in the Hewitt review - a completely novel service in ophthalmology when we set it up in 2020, now an exemplar for how a specialty hospital can support the system. @gordonrhay_md @clairerobo84 @KilduffCaroline

If you need emergency care this Christmas, for sudden sight loss or eye injury, our online A&E service is running. Log on to speak to our doctors who can triage you and get you to the right care. It may save you a trip into London. bit.ly/moorfieldsemergencyca… #TalkBeforeYouWalk
