    This issue highlights a broader problem. πŸ₯ receive trainees with little need to demonstrate that they provide good training and a safe training environment. This is wrong.

    πŸ₯ should be proving the quality of the training they are providing to trainees. Otherwise trainees should be removed. Without this, training of trainees will continue to play second fiddle to other hospitals and national priorities.

    We are raising this specific issue with @BCIS and @BritishCardioSo and expect them to support trainees obtain the required training opportunities to become the highly trained cardiology consultants that the UK needs and deserves.
