Patients, GPs are on your side. We're taking action to protect patient care, and you can join us by signing our open letter to the Government. Sign now: activism.bma.org.uk/page/193562/pe…
Dr Clare Bannon has been elected as the new chair of the General Practitioners Committee for England. She will start her new role from Thursday, 9th July, and take over from outgoing chair Dr Katie Bramall. Full details: bma.org.uk/bma-media-cent…
GPs in England are taking part in collective action over the Government’s plans to impose the 2026/27 contract. In July we're taking a stand against unfair workloads. Get involved to put pressure on the Government to address the unsustainable demands facing our profession.
Ah. Right, ok. So to do what general practice is not allowed to do? Double standards much? Number of pts seen each day in A&Es, MIUs, WICs… 76,000 Number of pts seen in GP? 1,500,000 “Bring back the family doctor”? Do me a favour 🥀😞 theguardian.com/society/2026/j… @BMA_GP
Join us for this online event for IMG (international medical graduate) GP registrars. Hear from experienced speakers who will share practical guidance, discuss common challenges, and provide insight into navigating GP training in the UK. bma.org.uk/events/optimis…
Whether you are currently in training or preparing to enter GP training, this event aims to support your development and build confidence throughout your journey.
Your medical record is one of the most sensitive things about you, yet the Govt wants to change how it’s controlled. That could mean less oversight from your GP and more access for others. We believe it should stay confidential, protected, and in the hands of those you trust.
These actions are lawful, practical and focused on protecting safe clinical decision-making and sustainable general practice. Find out more bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/…
Practices in England are being asked to take part in a further action, alongside ongoing action on data sharing agreements. This month’s action asks practices to remove or ignore non-contractual medicines optimisation software, which may fall outside of the remit of the ICB.
The exploration of an alternative model is a consequence of long-term political and systemic failure to protect NHS general practice. This has left the profession deeply frustrated, with no other choice but to explore alternatives
GPs in England will be balloted on a 'Plan B' alternative to the current GP contract that would expand options for providing private services to patients, in a landmark move confirmed by the BMA. Full story: gponline.com/bma-ballot-gps…
Make sure your GP practice is involved in this month's collective action. ✅ Send the template letter ✅ Pause new data sharing agreements ✅ Review existing data sharing agreements This is about protecting your practice and taking back control 👉 bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/…
Wow. Everyone needs to read this. All Labour MPs and party members need to understand this. Especially @jamesmurray_ldn The Lords will stop this, & we will support them. So let’s work together to make it right. medconfidential.org/2026/wes-stree… @BMA_GP
I can explain it. General Practice funded to the tune of 34p a day but consulting the equivalent of over half the entire population of England every single month Fund the front door and watch the numbers change Huge evidence from Ireland here…
Broad evidence shows the detrimental effect of austerity on health life expectancy, yet this remains largely unspoken within mainstream health and policy discourse. The evidence is clear, but the narrative isn’t bmj.com/content/393/bm…
GPs are being asked to do more with less under imposed contracts. This isn’t sustainable. We’re urging practices to withhold patient data sharing with third parties as part of collective action this May. Here’s why 👇 bma.org.uk/news-and-opini…
This is exactly why GPs are taking collective action across England @thetimes @BBCr4today bma.org.uk/bma-media-cent… Dr Boyle is wrong - GP Connect is available now to view record. Too much misunderstanding here. I’m happy to come on & explain. See also: bma.org.uk/our-campaigns/…
🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ Extra Qs on patient requests to measure ⬆️work 2ry to Computer Says No referrals & long waiting lists? 1. Is this appt for something you’re already on NHS waiting list for? (SNOMED 866145009) 2. Is this appt to see GP again about a previous problem? (SNOMED 866145009)
Exclusive: No 10 sets new GP access target ift.tt/tWpD6LQ
Editor: I’m so proud of our 6,200 GP practices nationwide who delivered 388,000,000 appointments in the past year on record tiny proportion of NHS budget where 0.02% interactions result in a complaint. I hope @wesstreeting @SKinnock would also decry this reporting. @BMA_GP
Damning figures that shame every GP surgery in England: Complaints reach record high, with 'poor communication' and 'staff behaviour' top reasons for patients' anger trib.al/UaXiE0U
GPs in England are launching collective action TODAY, after our GP committee voted that Government proposals don’t go far enough. We’re taking action on data sharing agreements, because policy proposals have not gone far enough to convince GPs that the profession will be protected. If you’re a GP in England, learn more: bma.org.uk/gpcontract @BMA_GP
#UKBiobank GPC England has consistently expressed concerns for years regarding @uk_biobank’s lax approach to the security of its dataset We’ve been repeatedly reassured by Govt, but nevertheless we insisted that NHS England retain liability… 1/4
Good work w @NHSEngland & @DHSCgovuk re: referral processes This isn’t a ‘win’ it’s what it should always have been Next: the need for a safety framework when we face exceptional demand Secure that & we start on the new contract Alternative? GP Collective Action from May 1st
GPs have won a major protection for patients in their negotiations with NHSE & Govt Guarantee of referral, no target for rejections, clear documentation of Advice and Guidance with Consultant name & GMC number Patient safety is always the priority Govt needs to listen to GPs
