“They were careless people. They smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” (The Great Gatsby)

Indiscriminate rocket fire by Hamas into Israel & use of civilians as human shields is against laws of war, but doesn't absolve Israel of its own violations. Int'l humanitarian law can't be applied selectively. It's binding equally at all times & doesn't depend on reciprocity.

People living in England's most deprived areas are 2.1 times more likely to wait over a year for elective care than those in the most affluent areas. Read our report to find out how an inclusive approach to #NHSWaitingLists might tackle these disparities. kingsfund.org.uk/publications/h…

We overthink things because we *want* to believe people in power have brains & ideas. The tragic truth is that Johnson embraced avoidable deaths, Truss delivered economic catastrophe & Sunak dialled up the chaos because they’re clueless, mean & entitled. And most media let them.

They forced a million innocent defenceless people into a small place for their own safety they said. Now they are massacring them. This is the reality today in #Rafah in #Gaza. As the western world looks on in silence. #r4today #BBCBreakfast #kayburley

The GMC is now consulting on how its regulation of PAs and AAs will work. The consultation is open to members of the public, and we've produced a short guide to be used by clinicians and patients who are keen to provide views. Read it here: bma.org.uk/media/wjnmmbsu… (1/2)

An example of how UK healthcare is viewed from abroad. Our primary care system is seen as an example of how not to run a service. A sad state of affairs. smh.com.au/politics/feder…

We cannot keep pouring an increasing amount of money into more doctors, hospitals, and medicines in the hope that we can treat our way out of our health problems. We need to look "upstream" and tackle the determinants of health. My speech in House of Lords on NHS.

“We spend below average on our health service compared to our peers, so it’s not surprising that we have fewer hospital beds, Drs, nurses, MRI/CT scanners. To a certain extent, you get what you pay for.” Siva Anandaciva, Chief Analyst The King's Fund

When you see the sheer scale of the murder of civilians in #Gaza, the mass destruction of homes, infrastructure, public services, centres of learning, religious and cultural buildings and symbols, I'm sorry, but it's now impossible to see this as anything other than #genocide.
