Big Up the NHS 💙 @butNHS
The NHS has never been under greater threat. Sharing good news stories reminds both the public and politicians that we must not allow it to fail. #BigUptheNHS Joined July 2013-

It is a scandal that for the last 75 years we have had a fantastic National Health Service but not a viable National Social Care Service. At last we have a government that is trying to address this anomoly - by destroying the NHS. #loveitorloseit #butnhs #KateGarraway
Public satisfaction with #NHS is at an all-time low, a deliberate political policy to push people into the arms of private healthcare. In fact, NHS activity & productivity is pretty good, given the resources it has. But it simply doesn’t have the resources to keep up with demand.
The vultures are circling. This in prime position on Btoad Street in Birmingham. Not cheap so they must expect a high conversion rate for the few junior docs who see it.
In 2010, 70% of you were satisfied with the NHS. Now, only 24% are. 14 years of Tory government understaffing, underfunding & private sector outsourcing have trashed the NHS into a travesty of the service we want to give you. It is heartbreaking & so disgustingly wrong 😔
I was in your maternity HDU recently, the care was wonderful. Thank you :) @butNHS #NHS #pregnant x.com/rlhmaternity/s…

Dear 🇬🇧, This is the anatomy of a militant takeover of your public healthcare system: - Take the #1 healthcare system on Earth - Defund it by £320 billion over a decade - Force doctors and nurses to leave country - Engineer the longest waitlist in NHS history - Hold patients…
In January 2011, just 17 people waiting longer than 12 hours on a trolley for an emergency hospital bed. In January 2024, more than 50,000 people did. Please RT so everyone can be aware of the damage the Conservatives have done to our NHS.
For those who advocate privatising the NHS in order to improve it - proper science from Oxford University published in the Lancet suggests you are wrong. thelancet.com/journals/lanpu…
Such an important and welcome post. As senior doctors we have a critical role here & hence my disappointment last Wednesday when I see some not defending our trainee colleagues on strike because of conditions as much as terms. Thanks Bethan & colleagues.

A few points about private healthcare that no one will tell you …. 1/n
Not so long ago, the government was promising that rises in National Insurance would be used to fix social care. So what will more cuts in National Insurance due to social care? It doesn’t look remotely fixed to me. What happened to that manifesto promise?
So sales of private health insurance at Aviva have risen by 41% in the last year. Exactly as the govt intended. Welcome to your 2-tier health service. Private for those who can afford it & an underfunded, understaffed, degraded NHS for everyone else. theguardian.com/business/2024/…
@IsabelOakeshott The NHS saved my life. If people think it's not good enough, it should be better funded and staff better paid so that the NHS can recruit and retain staff. The NHS is being attacked by those who want to privatise it = taking money away from care into shareholders' pockets.
New data form @UKHSA shows continued increase in pertussis (whooping cough) infections, with 553 confirmed in England in Jan, compared with 858 cases for the whole of last year (2023). And this is official figure - real number could be 10x higher. 1/2
OMG I would hate to work in a system where your patients are over a barrel (before, during & especially after the biopsy £$€). I guess one gets used to the unethical quagmire. Anyway this is why we fight for some form of an NHS as the primary way to healthcare.

A below inflation 2% uplift for NHS primary care which completes 30 million appts / month and is on its knees, while Rwanda policy set to cost at least £400 million and has yet to handle even one a person a month. 🤦♂️

Department of Health and Social Care wasted £14.9bn on PPE - National Audit Office report "It is misleading to say that £14.9bn of taxpayers' money has been wasted" - government response
Some think this Tory govt are making us choose between a private and public health system. They aren’t. What they are pushing for is a cherry-picking private system - taking the easy stuff. When things get serious we will all still depend on the now gutted and overwhelmed NHS.
Charging for GP appointments or admissions to A&E would exclude millions of people from the NHS. I can rule out a Labour government ever bringing in charging. Why can’t the Conservatives?
Charging for GP and A and E visits is a form of taxation - exactly equivalent to VAT on other goods and services. The “anti tax” tories are in fact talking taxing the sick and claiming they are reducing the overall tax burden. Now that is really sick. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
Shocked to hear that a minister's integrity is in question. After 12 years in power, it would be a pity if the government's record were to be tarnished at this stage. I'm sure Mr Zahawi has an innocent explanation. We'll probably laugh about it all later
Wonderful surprise this am! My fantastic friends and colleagues at @BWC_NHS #CysticFibrosis Team sent lovely mini white rose, yum shortbread bics & luxury teabags. Just what we needed to lift our spirits following the recent loss of my dear Dad. Thank you ALL ❤️ @ChildrensUnit
Just for the record, I have never accidentally set up an off shore trust.
Over my dead body. An NHS free at the point of use has been its central equitable principle for 75 years. Patients should never have to worry about the bill. It’s up to Labour, which founded the NHS, to grip the biggest crisis in its history and make it fit for the future.
Sajid Javid calls for patients to pay for GP and A&E visits theguardian.com/politics/2023/…
“Illness is neither an indulgence for which people have to pay, nor an offence for which they should be penalised, but a misfortune, the cost of which should be shared by the community.” - Nye Bevan Please RT if you believe the NHS is worth fighting for 💙
And so here it is, out in the open. Already the NHS outsources a large proportion of its work to private healthcare companies. And now the fundamental principle - a universal health service free at the point of use - is under threat. Aneurin Bevin must be spinning in his grave.

@johnredwood She's not the chief executive of the NHS. She's the chief executive of NHS England. She manages a tiny part of the unhappy workforce. Otherwise, spot on as per
