… guess who’s going to see your mum at 4am in A and E? Guess who’s going to go home with a racing heart because they didn’t have enough time to properly listen to their patient?
… it won’t be the politician who has national media outlets on speed dial. It’s the NHS staff.

I am so sick of seeing politicians weaponise NHS problems. The reason the NHS isn’t working well is because of what politicians have done. They then give soundbites to the media attacking staff and pointing fingers at healthcare workers.
It’s grotesque.
Just read a thing saying doctors worked harder in 2008 than they do now. As someone who qualified in 2010, I can’t speak for 2008. But there’s no way I worked harder back then than resident doctors are working now.
Who do you think absorbs NHS pressure at the moment? The staff.
It’s funny how politicians bleat on about market economics and the need to be competitive, but all of that stops when it comes to public worker pay.
They need to get real - we’re losing doctors to countries overseas where the doctors are paid better. It’s as simple as that.
The Guardian has decided to showcase 2 letters from senior doctors who don’t support strike action.
Where’s the counter-point in this, @guardian? I am hearing from lots of consultants who wholly support the strikes. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Lots of media outlets are talking about the cost of doctor strikes today. I can’t see the same outrage about the Trump deal that will cause us to pay more for medicines- it will likely cost many billions🚨

Famous champion of the NHS, The Telegraph, valiantly chooses to amplify the views of a doctor who disagrees with strikes. You’ll understand that this brave work is being done in the interests of the public, who The Telegraph’s editorial team always have front of mind.
Cancelled flight! But I believe that everyone deserves to know what politicians are doing to the NHS, so am working from a hotel lobby this morning.

So hang on, let me get this right. Starmer’s happy to do a drugs deal with Trump which is going to cost the NHS billions more, to benefit private companies. But they’re unwilling to pay NHS staff salaries that match countries with a similar economic picture. 🚨🚨🚨
