Hey @matthew-wright.bsky.social 👋🏼

I thought @lbc.co.uk listeners might be interested to see this ‘job’ advert for our GP in ED service, framed as a ‘rate increase’!

What plumber or electrician would call for 30mins on a Sunday for £42.50?

‘This year there will be qualified doctors without a job.’

‘We’re seeing GPs driving Uber now.’

Caller Dave is dismayed by the continued expansion of physician associates when places for doctors are shrinking.

LBC listener Peter tells @matthew-wright.bsky.social there's 'no role whatsoever' in the NHS for physician associates.

Thank you Peter Prinsley 4 asking the❓we all want an answer to🙏🏼

If DHSC, GMC & @nhsengland.bsky.social think those raising concerns re MAPs’ undefined, unlimited scope of practice are a “vocal minority” they should think again!

Only 3 weeks to sort a national scope of practice for #physicianassociates with Royal Colleges pushing for scope of practice

GMC refusing to set scope
Government playing games
NHs England complicit

No pressure🙏
Except there is an urgent need to sort this out NOW

There is overwhelming evidence that the policies & funding of NHS England & GMC are set on replacing Doctors with PAs

When stating PAs have been integral to the NHS for 20years they are lying

2015 there were just 15 PAs in General Practice only 109 in hospitals

I don’t understand the reasons

For those who’ve forgotten what a pre-vaccine world was like I’d advise watching the 1st few series of #callthemidwife 💙

The harm done to children & families from diseases like #Polio #Diphtheria #Rubella & #Measles etc in unvaccinated populations is unbelievable!

Storm after storm the roof kept them dry. So dry that they forgot what it was like to be rained on.

But they worried about the roof keeping the sunlight from them.

So they decided to dismantle the roof altogether.

I’m joining forces with @bigissue.bsky.social in calling for a POVERTY ZERO LAW - a statutory duty for every gov’t to set POVERTY REDUCTION TARGETS
