I was talking to many friends this morning in both northern and southern Gaza, and their situation is truly unimaginable. Malnutrition is spreading more and more, as families have nothing but scraps to survive on. With humanitarian aid blocked for 60 days by Israel, there’s no food, medicine, or fuel coming in. People are starving. This isn’t about security — it’s collective punishment, driving an entire population to the edge.

The wildfires raging across central Israel are devastating, with entire communities being evacuated and major highways closed. My thoughts are with all those affected by this crisis.
I commend the Palestinian Authority for offering assistance in battling the fires. In moments like these, it’s crucial to remember the importance of humanity over division, especially when lives are at stake..
I stand with those impacted by this disaster, Israelis and Palestinians and I hope for the safety of the firefighters and everyone working tirelessly to contain the fires.
Should emergency physicians be doing the HINTS exam at all if we are so bad at applying it? annemergmed.com/article/S019…

True, you have been in the room
It’s where you told us you were more afraid of what the daily mail readership would think rather than actually trying to resolve our dispute
Stellar leadership
I'm trying to establish an online journal club. Enthusiasm is there but getting people to share their opinions is harder. If you were/are part of a journal club can you share what you think makes it successful? #MedTwitter #MedEd #foamed
Sensible level-headed analysis that's badly needed when debate has been so polarised over the past 2 months

Never thought I would say this but I actually agree 100%
People marched in Lewes and burned an effigy of you alongside an effigy of Guy Fawkes, a terrorist. I think Britain has had enough of you @SuellaBraverman trying to intimidate the public.

I welcome this statement from the Met Police. The hate marchers need to understand that decent British people have had enough of these displays of thuggish intimidation and extremism.
We ask organisers to consider postponing any demonstrations in #London this #ArmisticeWeekend.

ALT “The risk of violence and disorder linked to breakaway groups is growing. "This is of concern ahead of a significant and busy weekend in the capital. "Our message to organisers is clear: Please, we ask you to urgently reconsider. “It is not appropriate to hold any protests in London this weekend." DAC Ade Adelekan

On the 6th October 2023 I shared a link on X to a Mail Online article entitled ‘Militant union leader at the heart of doctors strikes is a Labour activist who boasted of charging the NHS for a strike cover shift. I accept that my words were misleading as the subject in question Dr Tom Dolphin was not on strike on the date of the shift in question but was simply covering a shift as a consultant for junior doctors who were on strike on 11th August 2023. I would like to offer my sincerest apologies to Dr Dolphin for any distress upset caused. I will also like to add that I understand that Dr Dolphin actually donated his pay for the covered shift which I believe was £1870 to the BMA strike fund and whilst I do not agree with the strikes I want to go on the record to say that I think it is a very unselfish act on the part of Dr Dolphin to put his money into something he strongly believes in. I will make the same contribution to compensate the upset I may have caused Dr Dolphin. Please Repost.
