    NHS loses 1,000 GPs despite Hunt’s pledge for 5,000 extra. Work pressures are causing early retirements, which lead to practice closures and yet greater pressures on the existing GP services. Recipe for disaster

    This is HUGE for junior doctors. Dr Chris Day, NHS junior doctor, is a hero who sacrificed his own career for the sake of safety for patients & has now, through the courts managed to secure whistleblowing protection for all junior doctors. MANY questions still need answering..

    HEE have caved in & said that they are an employer of all junior doctors. They have operated the kill switch on the contractual BMA whistleblowing agreement. We will now apply for costs as HEE kept crucial evidence concealed. My whistleblowing case will be heard

    How very disappointed I am that such an article is felt worthy of publication. This was an initiative with the Patient central to the process. Transformation is using innovation but with the Patient central! But then good news doesn’t sell papers.

    My wife (doctor) on-call, attends hospital for emergency & literally saves life of a young patient. Returns to find a parking ticket on car. Appeal rejected because saving a life “is not a sufficiently mitigating reason”. Shame on you
