The BMA is threatening to take the regulator GMC to court over Physician Associates and Anaesthesia Associates
We covered this on my @lbc show on Sunday and I was truly shocked to hear from doctor after doctor how wrong PA usage is right now
So I’m supporting the @TheBMA 👍🏼
Today we have responded to the BMA, strongly rejecting the basis on which they have proposed to bring legal proceedings.

I'm backing Max Wilkinson @mpmwilko to be the next MP for Cheltenham. As a former Echo journalist he knows Cheltenham inside out. As a councillor he championed zero carbon policy, local business, air quality action and local arts & culture. He'll be a terrrific MP. @cheltlibdems

Of the main Party Leaders, only @EdwardJDavey has a positive poll rating. Says something about this election campaign!

Alex Chalk did NOT save our A&E. It was really at risk of closure in 2006. All-party campaign saved it & our maternity unit. AC was still a London councillor who’d never lived or worked here. Did promise Type1 24hr A&E back. Failed. @cheltlibdems @gloslive @BBCGlos

Midwives are underpaid, overworked, and are being pushed to breaking point.
That's the message I heard from members of the Royal College of Midwives on a walkabout of my local maternity wards.
Solidarity with the midwives as they ballot for strike action! #EnoughlsEnough

Loving the One Voice vibe here. Thank you to @MidwivesRCM and @GillWaltonRCM for the best day. We’ve done a lot but there is still so much to do.

The end result is not to improve safety: instead it undermines safe care, increases the likelihood of trauma. Midwives have standards for education & practice: nmc.org.uk/globalassets/site…. @thetimes, surely you have standards for your journalists? @IpsoNews @councilofdeans @nmcnews

Misrepresenting midwifery education, knowledge and skills in this way causes needless damage and distress to midwives and students when they are already stressed by understaffing. Most importantly it is likely to raise anxiety among women and can damage trust in their midwives.

I have stayed off Twitter recently: the negative coverage of midwifery practice, policy, research, & education is relentless and Twitter is not good with thoughtful nuanced debate. But the recent article in @thetimes is a new low. Thanks @hazard_leah for calling it out. A thread:
