Lots of vulnerable patients now without a gp in Canberra - no capacity for any of the rest of us to take them on. What a mess.

I’m interested to know when policy on general practice is going to start being made by talking to actual general practitioners rather than dictating to us?

One of only two remaining universal bulk billing clinics in Canberra went into receivership today and will close on Monday.

The ALP told us their bulk billing investment would help - it didn’t.

They claim their new investment will create 27 new UBB clinics here - it won’t

Oh wow that was terribly hard to hear. Sara handled it well. But. Wow 😯

Labor vows to establish federal EPA if it wins second term – weeks after shelving 2022 election promise Commitment may quell caucus angst about party’s environment credentials, but could face backlash from Western Australia’s industry and government

PM promises to do what he promised to do last election but personally stopped from happening 🤯🤦‍♂️

You couldn’t make this up.

If you care about nature, Labor & Libs aren’t representing you.

One does wonder what the point is of them? (Rhetorically of course - the point seems to be to make lots of money for their donors).

reminder to centre members of the Stolen Generations tomorrow (13/2). If you're a settler, no one needs to hear you politicise or twist the Apology. An apology that was a recommendation in Bringing Them Home report - it meant something to many who were stolen. So please, shut up & listen

but bec how would you know she’s a woman if she wasn’t surrounded by pink omg

Labor pledges $573 million for women's health, including long-term contraceptives The election pitch also includes new measures for women in menopause, including efforts to lift support and care provided by GPs.

This is really really really good!

I don’t think so

Oh joy, watching the ABC's flagship current affairs show where Sarah Ferguson ask s"Is there any proportion of the Palestinian people in Gaza who would welcome the chance to be relocated?"

How about no, because there is no such thing an ok proportion of ethnic cleansing? #730

Seriously tho that r’ship dynamic worries the hell out of me

Literally has enough money *personally* to feed the entire world. So yuck

Yeaahhhhhhh Q

In more frivolous news I think I’ve seen Kanye’s wife’s boobs more than I’ve seen my own at this point so that’s a thing

Leave not long enough

General practice conundrum: (perhaps medicine in general?). Love my patients, enjoy the work (mostly). Hate the bureaucracy and the game playing.

Love this

Today I had a meeting with 4 other Indigenous women; all from remote communities; all with psych degrees.
A moment that needs to be acknowledged.
This is the “new Aboriginal” & the world better get used to it. We are no longer the “support act” to the psychologist; we ARE the psychologist

Yeah I pay about twice what you do for mine he spends about an hour he’s worth it! (Figure I have to factor in travel time etc!)

That’s quite funny

We always tear each other apart instead of recognising the real enemy

She sounds really unhappy. This is really unfortunate. I’m not keen on the admin kicking I’ve seen going on - noones having a good time in nsw health at the moment. (Or any health service).

Thanks for the work Jon.

Just got back from Paris and London so moderately fabulous yessssss.

Jet laggggggeedddddddd

On behalf of the autistic community you don’t throw a Nazi salute cause you’re autistic you do it cause you’re a Nazi. Hope that clears things up.

Chart showing that in 2022-23 4,976PJ of gas was either exported as LNG or used to convert gas to LNG. Meanwhile the projected shortage of gas in the 2030s is around 300PJ.

Ahh love the "we have a gas shortage" stories.

Nope, foreign gas companies just prefer to sell Australia's gas overseas for more profit.

(they also pay bugger all tax, and barely any royalties)
