We have one of most severe penalties in the world for illegal abortion, with maximum life imprisonment The law is archaic, outdated and out of step with modern medicine and a modern society Time for our politicians to step up, and bring the law into the 21st century…

Just 377 healthy people under 60 have died of Covid. That's not a typo. There are no zeros missing. 377. Yes, that's sad but we have locked down an entire country for a virus that mostly kills the very old & the very sick. The rest of us should be free to decide our own risks.

The wealthiest have increased their personal wealth at the fastest rate in our history The largest companies have seen a 35% increase in profit since 2020 Whilst ordinary working people are struggling to make ends meet The government could intervene They are choosing not to

The police have reported there was no criminality in the BBC presenter story And now he is in hospital, I cannot even imagine what him and his family are going through Some of the journalism in this country really is awful They don’t care do they about the lives they destroy?!

#BlackLivesMatterUK #MedTwitter #racismNotrace In reference to #GeorgeFloyd someone in our medics chat just wrote how we should be grateful that we do not have “America’s race issues” So, let’s just reflect on that ‘racism-free’ healthcare that have here in the UK Thread ⬇️

We have discharged home from the ward, a lovely lady who was born in 1918!!🤩🥰 Age is no barrier to being loved, bringing joy to others & meaningful lives Upsetting how some of the political discourse over past year has treated elderly as if they’re of less value to our society

Five weeks ago I spoke to #skynews about lack of PPE for NHS & care workers That delay, dither & inaction And lack of preparation Would cost unnecessary deaths Shameful, sickening neglect & incompetence I am so angry So, so devastated

A government commissioned report published in the summer detailed exactly what is happening right now, including the risk of a new variant and needed to be done to mitigate harm 6 months later, our Prime Minister has still not bothered to read the report

Really Wished Matt would focus on doing his job Rather than dictating to us how we should do ours

All GP consultations should be remote by default, says Matt Hancock

Royal College of GPs expressed concern saying it would oppose predominantly online system

Deeply disrespectful And utter gutter journalism BME people are more likely to work in our NHS & care sector & high-risk key worker roles Are disproportionately dying And For decades been at the bottom end of structural inequality I expected better from the @Telegraph

So. Nurses, teachers, doctors, train workers etc have been repeatedly told by this government not to ask for a pay-rise - because we’re told it will ‘worsen inflation’ But, they’re happy for bankers to increase their bonuses?! Right 👍🏽
