“The critical care unit had to be shut (due to the ceiling caving in) but no patients were harmed” They may not have had a head injury but I am sure there is still harm when you are critically ill and you have to be evacuated as the roof fell in!This is years of under investment

Farzana Hussain First and foremost, hope it’s third time lucky and the results are OK. But what a classic example of why people roll their eyes when the system tells them: “What you people need to understand is…”

I voted for ⁦Sadiq Khan⁩ as he is at least trying to tackle homelessness. This is a person,they eat and sleep and cry like the rest of us. Why is their place of shelter, a dirty duvet on the concrete? I live & work in ⁦Newham London 💙⁩ & we GPs know our communities

Tough times financially for practices which will change the time they can devote to collaboration and PCN working. Clinical directors are in a difficult place, torn between satisfying ICS needs and their practices needs

We also need consistency on medical conditions which are exempt from payment fees eg if you have diabetes, your prescriptions are free but if you have heart disease (& may be put on 4 different tablets) you have to pay.I have had patients stop their tablets as they can’t pay 😪

If the government’s belief that “scrapping the partnership model would be a disaster” is true, then why has funding dwindled during their tenure & thousands of practices closed? Using partnership model to have a swipe at another political party is disrespectful to our patients
