Increasingly frustrated at the inability of the NHS - at alll levels - to grasp you need a whole pipeline workforce planning approach, so if you want more B6 or advanced physios you also need to expand the number of B5 NQ you recruit !

Looking forward to @unions21.org meeting this morning where we will hear the latest research on what workers think about unions. I suspect it will include some challenge, but U21 unions like @thecsp.bsky.social welcome this as it helps us evolve to better meet needs and engage members.

Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

Why should we switch 2p of tax from National Insurance to Income Tax? ⤵️
Income Tax raises more money and spreads the burden more fairly. The switch would raise £6 billion, and leave the vast majority of payslips unaffected.

This is totally unacceptable.
Rehab is the key to unlocking patient flow in the NHS.
Yet only 1 in 3 physios say they have enough staff to do their jobs properly and 6 in 10 have lost the space they need to deliver proper care.
Physio staff are vital. Let's create the posts so many patients need

Corridor care must not become normalised, with one in three people aged 90+ waiting over 12 hours to be seen, we need MPs to take emergency action.
