We need more investment in general practice, with a focus on relational continuity of care (cos it saves lives!)

My admiration for this extraordinary woman grows every day. She makes @DavidLammy & @Keir_Starmer, and most other W politicians, look like equivocating moral pygmies with their slipping & sliding while the livestreamed liquidation of the Palestinian people continues unabated.
If you listen to anything today let it be this. I had the pleasure of speaking and having individual meetings with
@francesca.albanese two years ago. In her capacity as Special Rapporteur. Everything you, we, are seeing through our screen is 100% her; honest, emphatic, fierce, moral and a staunch supporter for human rights everywhere.
All of this answer needs to be heard around the world. All of it: "Israel has conducted an attack, an unprecedented attack....now especially after the Knesset passed a law outlawing Unrwa... This is the nail in the coffin of the UN charter."
As someone whose career is dedicated to diplomacy, and has worked for and with the UN. I could not agree more with her words.

Lack of understanding that regulators have on the impact of working in areas of blanket high socioeconomic deprivation has been raised by our members. If they could improve this it would help morale within teams as well as help them shape targeted outcomes.

"We must have equal partnerships: among policy makers and patients, and among health professionals and communities"
Fantastic to see this editorial and support for embedding genuine partnership working with patients and the public in all we do @NIHR_ARC_NENC @deependNENC

“Stability is change,” said Sir Keir at the manifesto launch. Perhaps his love for George Orwell’s 1984 explains why there is so little in it apart from Big Brother-style pictures. After all, “Ignorance is Strength.”
Orwell wrote 1984 around the same time as the 1942 Beveridge Report, in which William Beveridge, an economist and Liberal politician, identified five giant societal evils: idleness, disease, ignorance, squalor, and want. Their 21st century counterparts plague Britain today.
We are in need of a new Beveridge Report, and Act Now: A vision for a better future and a new social contract aspires to fill that void. It’s written by a coalition of seventeen academics, campaigners and politicians, including me, under the moniker the Common Sense Policy Group. Backed up by some heavyweight number-crunching to model the costs and benefits, and extensive polling, it shows it’s not just possible, but popular, to do things differently.
Act Now: A vision for a better future and a new social contract is on sale from 24th June.

Great view on system change… the Deep End networks form a movement and hopefully are “system activists” @JonQuine @DrSameenaH @SarahLSowden @deependgp @DeepEndGP_YH
Making change happen across a system of different organisations & groups is different to managing change within a single organisation. @CollaborateCIC is a great source for approaches to system change. They use the term "system activist" rather than "system leader", as mobilising for change in a system doesn't always need formal power. They say that becoming a system activist requires a fundamental change in the way we think & feel about our work & our own role in it. They suggest seven shifts that system activists make:
1) From Organisations to Outcomes: They know that collaboration beyond the boundaries of their role/organisation is needed to improve outcomes.
2) From Management to Mobilisation: They recognise that they can't rely only on the formal authority of their role & need to build informal authority to influence & generate action by others.
3) From Me to We: They know that their perspective on the challenge & its possible solutions, is partial & limited.
4) From Expert to Explorer: They navigate through uncertainty & adopt a learning approach, guiding others through that.
5) From Delivery to Co-creation: They recognise that disagreement is inevitable & have the ability to harness it productively; they distribute power & put people with lived experience at the heart of decision-making.
6) From Expectations to Agency: They recognise that the patterns, rules & behaviours that have sustained the systems’ old ways of functioning may also need to change.
7) From Head to Heart: System activists recognise that they are a part of the system they are trying to change & they need to change as much as everyone else.

Listening to some of the great outcomes from the MINDED study @deependNENC Embracing skill mixes in primary care to provide better care for our patients. @ways2wellnessUK #healthinequalities #mentalhealth @BenENightingale
Discussing the findings and challenges of implementing change in the MINDED intervention and acknowledging hidden work..
We are determined to advocate for proportionate universalism and adequate funding for primary care according to need… totally agree, the Carr-Hill formula is outdated.
The carr-hill formula (way of distributing funds to GP practices) is outdated. There is no allocation for health inequalities or poverty.
GPs in the most deprived areas have more patients, more complexity, less staff and less funding.
