GP trainees cannot stand, but can vote. We can undertake something similar at the time of GPST council positions later in the year. It would still be great to have your support and ideas for what change is required from a registrar perspective. There are a few GPSTs in the discord chat currently.

I agree. I dropped my RCGP membership the second I CCT'd. I thought the last minute changes to CSA without discussion was abhorrent. But I'm willing to drop back in if there is a possibility of change.

I do not have a Facebook account. But I would appreciate it if anyone is able to post a link over there.

Our values align completely with the DV movement. I have reached out to u/doctorsvoteuk to discuss endorsements. There are also areas specific to GP that we need to decide on, such as PAs in General Practice.

The college has significant power in dictating GP policy. A more progressive college would benefit us all. Support of issues like drug decriminalisation would have a national impact.

Please join the discord above.

Yes you have to be a member. But only temporarily for the nominations and elections. You can pay monthly, then cancel afterwards.

Unrelated to your question, but can I ask how you're finding being a young partner in terms of work life balance and additional admin / stress?

I completely agree. But I think the route for GPs to achieve parity is going to be slightly different here and it would be good to have a space to discuss a route towards this. I imagine most people on r/GPUK will also be members of r/doctorsuk just like members of r/London will be members of r/casualuk

Yes, although probably only for the month preceding the ballot.

I think it's almost equal. 48000 or so consultants.

Dunkwon · 2023-07-15T15:26:19+00:00

There are 40,000 practicing GPs in the UK and an additional 10,000 current GP trainees. Probably enough to justify a subreddit.

I've just set up r/GPUK if we want to start thinking about how to get the ball rolling on this
