I haven’t yet received an apology from Julia Hartley-Brewer for attempting to discredit me by spreading false information about me to her followers.
I am in discussion with the brilliant barrister on our team about our next steps. We are taking this extremely seriously.
My family, 4 of us, lived in a 1 bedroom flat through two major waves of COVID-19 to allow my husband (an ICU consultant) to help run one of the biggest ICUs in London. And we did that because we felt it was our duty.
These Conservative Christmas party revelations disgust me.
BREAKING: from the Royal London Hospital, this email from management👇
“We are now in disaster medicine mode. We are no longer providing high standard critical care, because we cannot”
The content of this email is SHOCKING and I’m passing it to a trusted journalist right now🚨
Dear tabloids,
We’re not as fascinated by Harry and Meghan as you think we are. Can you cover something more pressing? Say...the continual failings of our government?
Thanks.
Ok, Laurence Fox has 235k followers and campaigns on a platform of hatred. I have 81k followers and campaign on a platform of anti-racism and pro-NHS issues.
Can we make my ‘voice’ louder than his on Twitter?
Follow and RT me. Let’s do this 👍
We don’t want a royal yacht.
We don’t want flags on all the hospitals.
We don’t want to defend statues more carefully than people.
We don’t want xenophobia and racism and hatred.
We want a modern, caring society which looks after everyone.
It’s that simple.
If you can’t get to see a GP, if you’re waiting too long for an ambulance, or if you’re on a waiting list for treatment, that is because of political choices made by the government.
NHS staff didn’t do this to you.
Other patients didn’t do this to you.
The government did it.
Once we’ve got this bunch out of power, we need to change the system so that we never end up with a similar government. I want leaders who have had normal jobs in the real world, care for people and want an equitable society. I don’t think I’m alone.
Many doctors this morning are telling me “we’d like to fight for a pay rise for all NHS staff but we don’t think the public are behind us”
Are you behind us? 👩🏼⚕️👨🏽⚕️
Your NHS staff need to hear you loud and clear please. 📣 💙

You probably won’t read in the papers today about the consultant surgeon who padlocked the operating theatres shut when there was no PPE, and safeguarded lives by refusing to operate until PPE was found.
You won’t find out about the consultant who put her hand up and fought…
Not sure why everyone’s surprised that an actor could make a good political leader. We’d all be in a better place if Hugh Grant was in charge right now.
Stop talking about ventilators. Dyson didn’t supply any to the NHS. We were being fed info at the time.
McLaren did an incredible job and designed special ventilators with ICU clinicians. Dyson supplied none.
If you’re a Conservative MP and you don’t submit a letter of no confidence in Boris Johnson, this is going to follow you for your entire political career.
I’m genuinely concerned about what will happen to this country if this government wins another General Election. We cannot allow it to happen. RT if you agree.
I’ve been called a ‘psychopath’ many times on Twitter today, because I went on Sky News and spoke up for vulnerable people who aren’t considered by this government.
Doctors are absorbing waves of abuse daily for speaking up for patients.
How has our country descended to this?
Have you ever cared for a suicidal person in A and E who has fled their country of birth because of homophobic threats to their life Suella Braverman?
I have.
Your political ideologies are grotesque.
Hello, I run a network of 26000 UK doctors, and can tell you pretty accurately what’s going on in the NHS. But I have only just joined Twitter. Could you please re-tweet this to your followers, and I’ll do my best to update you with what’s happening? Thank you so much, Julia 🌟
Please support Carol Vorderman - a lot of powerful people don’t want her to be holding the government to account.
They might have the power, but there’s more of us.
Carol, you’re awesome 🌟
@carolvorders
Our health secretary, the minister in charge of the NHS, should not be allowed to financially benefit from the outsourcing of NHS services.
It’s simply wrong.
💙Retweet if you agree💙
Julia Hartley-Brewer (who I blocked earlier today) is trolling me. We do, indeed, sell face masks. They are reusable, 3 layer cloth masks, and they���re made by our brilliant friends at
@mfep_uk
, who employ sewists who lost jobs during the pandemic. I do not profit from sales…
It would appear I’ve become a little bit of a target for anti-maskers. Many are now calling upon twitter to delete my account.
I’m just cracking on, and I hope everyone has a lovely weekend. 🌟
Isn’t it grotesque to see our Prime Minister, one of the richest men in the country, lecturing us all about how working people should be satisfied with unfair wages?
My little boy just said “some people aren’t listening Mummy. They’re not wearing masks on the bus, and they’re not socially distancing.” His sister (who follows him everywhere) just said “naughty” and nodded her head solemnly.
We should put the pre-schoolers in charge.
I could have really done with a glass of wine this evening after one of the most intense days of trolling I’ve experienced in a while! But I’m on BBC Radio 5 Live at 10pm and unlike our government, I don’t think it’s ok to drink alcohol while working.
We need every single person on Twitter in the UK to raise their voice in anger about this Bill. It will accelerate NHS privatisation.
Privatisation. Harms. Patients 🚨
#ScrapNHSBill
I am extremely worried about Jeremy Hunt. He is extremely clever and extremely adept at framing issues and the media discourse around them. I was part of a group of doctors who attempted to speak up against his junior doctor contract imposition. We worked with extremely…
If you’re wondering why the country’s an absolute bin fire right now, it’s because the government have made a whole host of decisions that benefit friends, donors and corporate interests, and do not benefit the public. For 12 long years.
I get told frequently by Conservative MPs that the public aren’t bothered about private companies running NHS services and making a profit.
I don’t think this is correct. If you would like profit-making to be removed from the NHS, pls RT.
Let’s see!
Are you concerned by the incredibly high number of COVID-19 cases in the UK, the rising numbers of hospitalisations and deaths?
If so, please RT this. The government need to start taking responsibility 🚨
Do I love Keir Starmer? No
Am I going to be part of the tactical vote campaign seeking to oust every single Tory from Parliament? Yes, yes I am.
Once the Tories have gone, we can start demanding what we want from Labour.
MPs have had 8 pay rises since 2010, while NHS staff have endured real-terms pay cuts of up to 32%.
If you think NHS staff deserve better than this derisory 3% rise (0.6% when inflation considered), RT 💙💙💙
Just been asked why the mainstream media aren’t covering the dangers of the Health and Care Bill properly.
It’s because the UK mainstream media is mostly owned by a handful of billionaires.
Trolls need to understand that they’re trolling a doctor who watched her ICU consultant husband leave the house at 6.30am for 8 weekends in a row this winter, and come back ashen-faced close to midnight.
I will not stand for government failings at the expense of NHS staff 💙
People are dying in corridors.
People are dying in ambulances because there’s no space in A+E depts.
People are dying in their homes because the ambulances don’t arrive.
Patients aren’t safe+staff are exhausted🚨
Be outraged. The government has done this to the NHS.
#NHS
Who do you trust? Doctors, or the right-wing press?
Because quite frankly we’re being gaslighted by the government and the right-wing media, and I’ve never seen NHS staff morale lower.
If you support doctors, RT 💙
Well, we’ve been through a 5 day trial. It’s been 12 months of hard slog. Our lawyers have been stupendous. We’re quietly optimistic. Now we await the verdict.
We’ve done this to speak up for NHS workers+patients, and we gave it all we have 💙

Just to be clear; I’ve spent two lockdowns in a 1 bedroom flat in central London with my husband working as an ICU consultant, 2 pre-schoolers, and running
@EveryDoctorUK
. If anyone wants this pandemic to end, it’s me. But cases are rising and lockdown release isn’t safe.
Quick reminder; our Health Secretary Sajid Javid has backed a Daily Mail campaign which talks about using ‘hit squads’ against GPs.
GPs never stopped working. Many were sent no PPE, or out of date PPE. Many died. They died because they continued to see patients as instructed...
Sleaze is a guy at a bar offering you a drink in a slightly creepy way.
Sleaze isn’t being paid in Parliament to further corporate interests. That’s corruption.
Dear government,
Please stop referring to vaccines being delivered by ‘the team’. They’re delivered by NHS staff. The NHS has pulled off the only successful response to our COVID-19 strategy as a nation. Please acknowledge this.
I’ve just been on Sky News explaining that the media and others need to stop calling public health measures ‘restrictions’. They’re there to protect the vulnerable people in our society, who matter just as much as anyone else.
@EveryDoctorUK
I was punched to the ground by a man, sustaining facial injuries requiring hospital attendance. The police officer who attended the scene then took my phone number under false pretences and called me repeatedly for weeks until eventually admitting he had done so to ask me...
I’m getting really concerned that enough people aren’t worried about NHS privatisation, and that our campaign might need to come to an end. I’m devastated about this. This government have dismantled the NHS in many ways for 12 years, and now they’re accelerating privatisation…
Nothing says “the NHS isn’t being privatised” like hiring the ex-CEO of the US healthcare insurance giant which has taken over the care of 500,000 NHS patients this year.
Her role in Number 10? “Advisor on NHS transformation and social care”. 🚨
Care to comment,
@BorisJohnson
?
…they help to fund the non-profit I founded and run.
It is called
@EveryDoctorUK
.
I will be speaking to the barrister on our team about Julia Hartley-Brewer’s tweets.
To anyone who’s been distracted by media noise about billionaires or the Royal Family, we’re doctors and lawyers in the middle of PPE legal cases against the government, being heard in the High Court.
Pls RT to spread the word about that instead🚨
