#RCGP guidance, #bigotry, and incompetence leads #UK doctors to force #transadults to detransition

Family #doctors’ leaders have criticised ministers for giving #GP surgeries in England a “derisory” increase in their funding, despite surgeries seeing record numbers of patients.

The #RoyalCollegeOfGPs (#RCGP) has warned that the 1.9% rise in the #budget for general practice for 2024/25 will leave hard-pressed GPs struggling to provide the care that patients expect.

Back to #RCGP this weekend. Got the camera under control and it became much clearer what was happening and how to debug it.

Today I demonstrated I'm not an artist by modeling a traffic cone! #screenshotsaturday

I also spent a few hours re-learning #blender3d , and this month spent numerous hours on planning, design, and project admin, and who knows how much time I lost fixing a bug in #UE5 's build system.

I'm going to make progress on #RCGP if it kills me.

@wesstreeting - if this is accurate you really need to talk to #RCGP and #PrimaryCare #GP leaders about what partnerships and the current status brings to the NHS. If you don’t understand what will be lost you will make a bad situation far far worse. @UKLabour @rcgp

The new #RCGP Chair only started on Saturday but she has made a big splash on the Guardian today. All about moral distress but this final part is important - all political parties are doing this and focusing on access.

Of course, people are worried about seeing a GP - but it simply can't be done in many places with available resources. And it adds to abuse of GPs, to GP bashing, and it *will* make it worse.
