Our family are so pleased that after 36 nights on a Covid Ward my wife Naledi Kline finally came home last night.
Our huge thanks to the staff on Rowan and Rainbow wards at Barnet General Hospital @RoyalFreeNHS for the care and support you gave.

- Sorry. I have no doubt you are all highly talented. But are there really no BME clinicians in the top team? I'm sure I'll be unpopular for asking but please can we have a senior leadership team a bit like the NHS workforce in London.

- Not just mental health either: Since 2010 -11% (-4,985) in community services -45% (-3,431) in district nurses -19% (-554) school nurses -38% (-2,023) across all learning disabilities settings and -13% (-5,168) across all mental health settings.
- Yesterday, Health Secretary Stephen Barclay wrote to all NHS organisations telling them to "cease recruiting into standalone EDI roles". Here is the Open Letter the @BMJLeader published from me on his last piece of similar nonsense about equality. blogs.bmj.com/bmjleader/2023…
