Dear @Conservatives,

13 years ago you inherited the #1 ranked healthcare system on the planet and look what you've done. We now have the longest GP, A&E, outpatient, and cancer waiting times in NHS history. 7.3m people long. You don't deserve power. You deserve prison.

It's absolutely true that 10 years ago the NHS was ranked the #1 healthcare system in the world. We were not perfect and still had plenty to work on but we were performing better than any other healthcare system on the planet. Image
Then this happened... ImageImage

I had a great conversation on @LBC with @RachelSJohnson about the #NHS crisis. We spoke about the 4 major NHS problems of funding, staff, beds, and social care. She asked me to prove what I was saying. This is what I told her. #SOSNHS

🧵 1/4
I then spoke to @RachelSJohnson about how the NHS is the most efficient healthcare system in the world and I convinced her that a private health insurance scheme will do nothing to help patients. She was convinced. #SOSNHS

🧵 2/4
I then spoke to @RachelSJohnson about why I love the NHS and some solutions to the staffing crisis including a visa/ILR waiver scheme and citizenship for immigrant pandemic workers — just like they've done in 🇫🇷 — and why NHS workers desperately need a pay rise. #SOSNHS

Dear @SteveBarclay,

I'm an NHS A&E immigrant doctor making £14/hr here working in London. I volunteered twice during the pandemic to be redeployed to the COVID-19 wards. Last week I paid £500 for visas for myself and my partner. We can't afford our bills. Please help.

🧵 1/5
We international NHS doctors and nurses fought hard to protect this country during the pandemic, and a disproportionate number of clinician deaths came from our ranks. Many of our colleagues sacrificed their lives to protect this country.

🧵 2/5
Yet we pay these fees every year and some international colleagues of mine are being charged £10,000 for their indefinite leave to remain applications for their families. These pandemic heroes are being forced to pay eye-watering sums (for us) just to stay here and work.
