@DrOKaneAgain @rclondon @DrSarahClarke I have been really disappointed by a number of Royal colleges pursuing and encouraging PA role without proper consultation with their membership. Im not saying PAs are bad, just how can they fundamentally change how we work without talking to us? Madness

@ukmat82 Although this person's statement is abhorrent, disgusting and actually counterproductive - i do fear that it blinds us to the truth there is a lot of anger and feeling undervalued as juniors. We need to be mindful of where these sentiments are coming from in our juniors.

@DrAhwabAlam @veggieequallife Does that change the fact they should have responded truthfully? Probity and professionalism are not choices, they are a responsibility. If you can't be honest with your patient, how on earth can they trust you when they are at the most vulnerable (under any form of anaesthetic)?

@mouseter_chef @Xeon4f145d96s1 I actually genuinely thought this was a joke! @rcgp what on earth do you have to say for yourselves?!?! Do you really think this is safe? From 0 above working independently of GPs???? You need to come out hard and FAST about this. Why are you sleeping at the wheel?

@ukmat82 @BAOIA_News Well done. It is far harder to speak up than hide away. You have always been respectful and honest. I think most people from either side of the aisle agree you are fair, honest and open. I for one would love to see and hear your talk!

@GMB @ranvir01 What an intellectually bankrupt, horrid, nasty piece of work. You gave up on the NHS 30 years ago, yet you have the temerity to lecture those who stick it out and try and improve it so others don't leave. Disgusting
