@DrPJJB Dunno when you were a junior doctor, mate, but if you do a bit of ‘Google research’ doctors are asking for pay RESTORATION. So the equivalent of whatev you were getting paid back in the day. Pay RESTORATION. Clue is in the name.

@TomStocks1982 @wesstreeting Agreed, there must be some employment law advice/ case here. Another thing to consider as discriminatory is the exclusion of MBBS from application to PA ‘MSc’. It may be illegal to exclude a group in this manner.

@wesstreeting Just so you are clear, there is no shortage of doctors, there is a shortage of funded training posts for qualified doctors in the NHS. Doctors have lost more pay than every other public sector worker. This must be fixed, not fought, if you actually care about the public’s health

@Jo_McGinn @RotherhamNHS_FT yes good question. Where and when do celebrate the doctors, or do you exclude them and only focus on non- doctors? Who sees to the patients at 04:30am?

@IncogAssociate @TheBMA Of course they shouldn’t be regulated by @gmcuk . If the @gmcuk regulate non- doctors, it defeats the point of its own existence. Of course regulation is necessary, so is training, and the 2 years basic PA training is miles off adequacy for treating patients. Miles off.

@gmcuk @UofGlasgow Why are you bothering anymore? You’re deliberately blurring doctors from not doctors. And why are you using so many exclamation marks- do you think it amuses us to be spoken to like infants? It just underlines how obsolete you are.

@VishwajeetP4t3l Thanks @TheBMA for the guidance. Stepping up where @gmcuk and @NHSEngland failed.

@JimBethell @NAOorguk Underfund doctors and nurses. Limit the public’s access to doctors. Promote undertrained unsafe roles PAs/AAs. Then debate on private insurance to fund healthcare. Disgraceful @MichelePaduano @JanetEastham @ShaunLintern @DailyMirror @wesstreeting @Keir_Starmer

@SecretNHSCEO @HSJnews @HSJEditor @gmcuk is saying don’t need to learn this stuff, just Google My Condition. No need for postgraduate exams and training. An obvious build on calling PAs ‘medical professionals’. Breakdown of healthcare on the UK. Reckon your job is at risk too!

@TheBMA You have given clear guidance for junior doctors not to do any work on behalf of PAs which is great. Could you give an official guidance to consultants that you advise us to decline to supervise PAs as no scope of practice? It’s what I say at work but my workplace is decent.
