Major incident declared at the Trust for cyber security reasons is ongoing. We're working to rectify the issue. Patient safety remains our priority. Some outpatient appointments today & tomorrow are cancelled. Maternity services running as normal. Only attend A&E in an emergency.

IT all off at work so regaling the juniors with tales of the olden days. ‘It was all on paper when we started’. ‘We had X-rays you could hold’. ‘There used to be smoking rooms on the wards’. ‘The 4 hour target was met and corridors were for walking down’.

We expect our ongoing major incident to continue over the weekend. It was declared after a targeted cyber security issue & we’re working hard to rectify the issue. People may face longer wait times in A&E. Only attend A&E in an emergency.

We expect our ongoing major incident to continue over the weekend. People may face longer wait times in A&E. Only attend A&E in an emergency. If it’s not an emergency, help is available by contacting 111. Or visit an urgent treatment centre, walk-in centre, GP, or pharmacy.

Government suggesting 2.8% pay increase for doctors. Our target is catching up by 2027/28 our calculations show we need 7% per year for CPI or 14.23% for RPI. How much longer do you want to put up with a massive dent in your pay? Another 5 years?

The Government’s suggested 2.8% pay uplift for doctors shows a poor grasp of unresolved pay issues. Full statement from Philip Banfield 💙 here [1/2]: bma.org.uk/bma-media-cent…

Argh #whamageddon’d in the car. Damn you Smooth Radio

Called out NHSE’s narrative that it’s possible to provide safe care in corridors. Used strong language putting our statement together, reflecting Royal College of Emergency Medicine members’ and colleagues’ strength of feeling on this matter. Degree to which corridor care is normalised is dumbfounding

"My colleagues are running on hard work and goodwill, and our patients are receiving unacceptable, undignified and unsafe care in corridors and in the back of ambulances." RCEM's Vice Chair for Scotland Dr Fiona Hunter responds to the latest A&E performance data from Public

Dear Wes Streeting When one headteacher tragically killed herself due to Ofsted inspection there was national outrage and an overhaul Countless doctors kill themselves whilst awaiting GMC cases (that take years) What’s the plan? This is just one of many

A huge massive thank you to the wonderful team RSPCA Wirral who kindly loaned us a trap to help us retrieve our house cat who went walkabout for 8 days. We have him back, the trap worked after a neighbour spotted him and we were able to lure him in. Thank you so much!!!!

🚨 BREAKING: Resident doctors in England have re-entered a pay dispute with the Government. Why? Because progress is being stonewalled by the continued delay in the publication of the DDRB's pay recommendations. Trust must be rebuilt. Publish the DDRB now bma.org.uk/residentspay

A 4% pay uplift, less than current inflation, is an insult to doctors in England. This Government has shown it simply doesn’t value doctors.   “The DDRB has failed doctors. If this is the best they can do, government needs to think again.” says Philip Banfield 💙   This ‘award’

A meagre 4% pay uplift means most consultants in England will not have #PayRestoration during their working lives. Both the DDRB and the Government have failed us. We cannot let last year’s commitment slide so are immediately entering dispute with the Government.

4% increase on the day of 4.5% inflation is the train in reverse. Think again. Our pay still needs 29% uplift to get it back to 2008 levels. People are retiring now & taking these losses for the whole of their retirement. Pressure is needed & you need to be part of it.

Resident doctors vote YES to strike action to let the government know you are not willing to settle for a derisory pay offer on the back of significant pay erosion. Wes streeting said pay restoration is a journey - time to take the next step.
