Over 300 of you have pushed this team to the peak of Kilimanjaro with very very kind donations and wishes And they did it. The NHS crew is over 90% of its target.Please help with the last push. If you are thinking of donating, do it today, do it now. now justgiving.com/team/thenhs-cr…
General practice is vital to a healthy NHS. Yet, it is on the verge of total collapse. Our new report shows why GPs – and the vital role they play in our health system – must be valued. Read more 👉bma.org.uk/valueofagp #endGPunemployment
Great chart below/right from @TheIFS about ridiculous tax cliff at £100k cuasing *obscene* marginal tax rates. But you can draw a very similar chart (left) for higher earning doctors affected by the stupid & ill-conceived #taper which is **really damaging** waiting list…
Example 101 of NHS Referral forms being a way of restricting care to patients. Would a consultant to consultant referral be blocked for this? Why are GP referrals being blocked? (We don't use referral forms unless helpful ala collective action)
Our recent survey revealed 1 in 5 GPs in England plan to change their career because they can’t find work - write to your MP and urge them to support changes that will allow more GPs to work in the NHS. ✍️Write to your MP now by using our tool activism.bma.org.uk/page/166441/ac…
'If the ‘powers’ do not recognise the effectiveness of partnership model in general practice, I worry that may well backfire.' Dr Kamal Sidhu scrutinises the details of the new GP contract and asks just how helpful it will actually be for general practice buff.ly/SeyMnZb
'If the Secretary of State really wanted to support general practice, he would support the House of Lords amendment to reimburse the National Insurance costs completely like they’re doing for other NHS bodies' buff.ly/BhK8mRY
Collective action will now be aimed at ICBs rather than the Government, with GP leaders advising practices to continue at a local level despite the new contract deal. buff.ly/DBsrXAS #GPcontract #GPcollectiveaction #NHSdisputes #NHSEngland
If grassroots GPs are telling @doctor_katie "this is going to break us", the time for collective action in general practice is surely NOW. Make sure you are involved to protect your practice, your staff and your patients. bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/…
GP funding per patient less than annual hamster insurance, LMCs warn gponline.com/gp-funding-per… #GPnews @BMA_NI
Fascinating. NHSE have assessed worst case scenario of GP Collective Action. Stopping non-contractual work could cost the NHS £570m in the first 4 months. Extrapolated - @NHSEngland have just admitted General Practice is doing £1.7billion of non-contractual work every year

NHS Digital data underestimates hours GPs work A ‘session’ measured as 4hrs 10mins suggests a GP doing 6 = 25hrs/wk In reality much longer See prucomm.ac.uk/assets/uploads… Also bjgp.org/content/early/…

GP leaders have set out a comprehensive list of requests GPs should ‘decline’ and send back to hospitals, in a bid to tackle workload dump buff.ly/3SSDwCc
The NHS Crew did it- three peak challenge. Donations by so many of you have made all of this so worthwhile. We are immensely grateful to you all. Those who have not yet managed to donate, please do it here. A short clip of the crew at Snowdon. justgiving.com/team/nhs-crew?…

Interesting developments @RCPhysicians A wake up call? And may be time for introspection @rcgp @RCoANews ‘Things are very bleak’ within General Practice & sadly a lot of GPs are unemployed. A very strange paradox indeed. #TeamGP @BMA_GP @BAPIOPC @BAPIOUK @BMAGPtrainees

GPC England have voted to hold a non-statutory ballot for GP contractors & partners in England from 17 June - 29 July. To vote YES for collective action you must be a member and your details must be up to date. bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/… @doctor_katie #TakeActionSaveGeneralPractice
I really will! Look at the actions as well as the words…
