@calderdale.bsky.social Just seen on Halifax Courier that south route into Halifax basically closing next week with everyone funneled North. Any chance you could delay so that rpadwon north are actually finished rather than gridlocked???

@acutemedicine.bsky.social #SAMManchester worrying stat , 71% of AIM registrars say they feel their specialty not valued above GIM by others, how do we change this?
Not so far behind you in years but totally agree
Great gig last night at Halifax Piece Hall, Texas as great as ever
Long weekend in Prague in getting v v wet at @brucespringsteen.net concert!!!
Next long QT is most commonly missed abnormality, esp by the ecg machines auto report #samonthecam
Ps 90% of broad complex tachy is VT, so...... If in doubt treat as VT #samonthecam
#samonthecam Cardiology Pearl - DON'T give adenosine to tachycardia "to see if helps" (aka diagnostic test) - you will almost certainly end up "doing bad stuff"
I read this curled into a ball of horror, but it's WELL worth reading.

BIG Whoop.
“Sure, it will be compatible with any modern IT kit” falls down fast when it meets NHS infrastructure.
For those not fully aware of NHS finances, you will have seen the austerity of the last 14 years. Where do you think they start first each year? Tech and support spending.
Serious question: Can somebody explain to me why the Signal boys loathe Europe so much? Exasperation with longstanding European refusal to spend more on defence really is not enough to explain this degree of hostility. What’s so bad about Europe? Too snobby? An obstacle to their libertarian dreams?
"Success will depend on how this massive change is managed and on creating a workable future relationship between ministers and NHS organisations."

The government's promised to reform the NHS, but “reform” is one of the trickiest words in the political lexicon.
It "usually just means cuts, and when done in a hurry there’s a risk of unintended consequences."

This is really important in the context of NHS budgets being cut across the hospital sector...many hospitals are short of the nurses needed to provide safe care: www.channel4.com/news/factche...

Very good read!!
"Let everyone get measles so they will get immunity" (if they survive) is the same logic as "invade Canada to increase their security against invasion".
@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social
It might have been the time when I was involved with both DH and NHSE but found the latter far better informed, much easier to talk to, much keaner to learn and much more likely to try and evolve care
Please spend a second thinking of the thousands who work for nhse about to be unemployed. They don't deserve to be vilified @wesstreeting. The state of the NHS is not their fault. Please don't use them as a political punchbag. #nhse
At Heathrow, back in UK for a few days. It feels like a homecoming. I feel physically and mentally lighter, at a distance from the toxic environment in Washington. I didn’t realize how much it was affecting me. O/c, the issues haven’t gone away, but it honestly feels different here. Let me explain 🧵
I had one of those, when I clicked through to the practice Web page the only option you could tick was "I don't want to do this", no option to actually book anything, nhsapp says I "decline", box ticked?
