Thank you, Rachel. I hope that with Dr Asif Qasim as PRCP, Rr @drlkvaughan.bsky.social as Clinical VP, and @copddoc.bsky.social and @drbarrymonk1.bsky.social on Council as well, we can begin to make a difference #RCPTimeForChange

If only @rcphysicians.bsky.social had a unit of its own, that could just get on with developing policy on workforce, to set the pace for physicians, rather than simply expecting others to do the work for them

Quite. And I cannot think of anyone better than you to join RCP Council, Philip - good luck in the election πŸ‘

An RCP that actually led would:

1. Listen to its members

2. Advocate for members

3. Defend medical excellence

4. Speak truth to power

This is why I believe the RCP needs @drasifqasim.bsky.social for its new President and @drlkvaughan.bsky.social for VP.

Leadership is not ignoring the concerns of your Members & Fellows - expressed with ever greater desperation as they can't get training numbers & even face unemployment.

Nor is it responding to a workforce crisis by, wait for it, commissioning a 'review' of the problem. (2/3)

Dismayed to see @rcphysicians.bsky.social only today - literally years after doctors started raising concerns - finally issue an "urgent" call to the govt to address its deliberate suppression of resident doctor training places.

This is not what good leadership looks like (1/3)
