Votes are still coming in, but even overnight 448/521 doctors reject Wes' offer.

Can we put this silly idea to bed now and come up with a better one?
The BMA didn’t put our offer to their members and now we know why: they wouldn’t have backed their unnecessary and irresponsible strikes.
They should give their members a say, call off these strikes and stop risking the NHS’s recovery.

🔔UPDATE: More worrying evidence emerging of unsafe use of Physician Associates by @UHP_NHS. Doctors at the trust have been instructed to create a "prescribing rota" to determine who will prescribe and request scans for PAs.

🚨NEW: Our investigation into the unsafe use of Physician Associates at @UHP_NHS 👇
The trust uses a PA to carry out paediatric ENT surgical procedures. When asked for their scope of practice & governance policies, the Trust refused, bizarrely citing "Health and Safety"
@AliJaneMoore@wesstreeting its really sad. Could you please attribute the subreddit if you're going to share screenshots? Other journalists will selectively choose comments to paint it as a "dark corner of the internet" cc @ShaunLintern when its really just normal doctors like these
@medicalmodelbri The subreddit is an open forum we don't post on behalf of anyone. FWIW this kind of thing would be removed anyway as it's impossible to verify and would not meet our content standards.
Very glad to hear @wesstreeting is sympathetic to our concerns about career progression
However; sympathy won’t resolve placeholders or bottlenecks - it meaningless to those facing unemployment.
What we need is action!
