Hey @wesstreeting, you’ve got a fan in @BBCSimonJack - he just said so on an open mic on @BBCr4today. He must know you’re good for a costed #NHSWorkforcePlan for the 2025-35 timeframe that is fit for purpose and not reliant on medical students coming on stream in 2040! #GE24
Thank you @Keir_Starmer for everything you are planning to do for patients in 2040. Me in my sixties is really grateful. What’s the #NHSWorkforcePlan to make sure there’s an NHS after 2025-35 for all these graduate medics to work in? @DrRosena @wesstreeting @CHazelgrove #GE24

There’s been a strong uptick in your language in the last few days, @wesstreeting. You and @Keir_Starmer are starting to talk about the #NHSWorkforcePlan beyond recruitment. Looking forward to those costed #Retention plans for 2025-35. @DrRosena @CHazelgrove #GE24 #GE2024

He’s quite right, I’ve been treating @wesstreeting a bit like he is the Health Secretary recently. He isn’t, but I hope he will be after #GE24 #GE2024 and no doubt he’s working on his costed #NHSWorkforcePlan as I type.

Given the shortage of anaesthetists is regularly raised with me by NHS leaders, this is yet another example of the self-defeating short-termism of the Tories that is letting down staff and undermin…

Have woken up to some beautiful spring sunshine this morning. Got a really good feeling that today might be the day we get a commitment to a credible, costed #NHSWorkforcePlan from @wesstreeting and @Keir_Starmer. #GE24 #GE2024

Hey @wesstreeting and @Keir_Starmer, I know you’ve been searching high and low for that catchy topic to make a credible, costed #NHSWorkforcePlan for 2025-35 sell more easily to the public. You know, something more grown-up and mature than more medical students. Could this be it?

I wonder if @wesstreeting and @Keir_Starmer might be keen to work this into their costed #NHSWorkforcePlan? Can’t catch up on elective operating without anaesthetists. Funding for training *postgraduate* doctors must be a priority for the next government. @CHazelgrove @DrRosena

Good morning @wesstreeting, really looking forward to you being Health Secretary after #GE24 #GE2024. Is today the day we get a costed #NHSWorkforcePlan that addresses *retention* of existing staff rather than training the colleagues to look after patients in the 2040s?
#ge24 #ge2024 #nhsworkforceplan
Dear @labpolicyforum, it would be great to know who your consultants on a @UKLabour #NHSWorkforcePlan - it seems @wesstreeting is fixated on training (which plays well with the Tory press, but lacks credibility with the profession).
