Due to maladministration by Capita, more than half of GPs in England are missing vital information about their pensions, making planning their workloads impossible and having a negative impact on their mental and emotional wellbeing. tinyurl.com/mrnxbcbu

Our recent FOI request has revealed that 56% of GPs in England have missing years of pension data up to 2022/23. This shockingly equates to 18,575 GPs having one or more years of missing pension records and reflects a cumulative of 156,896 years of missing records.

We are once again calling upon @CapitaPlc , @NHSEngland and @NHSBSA to urgently work together to fix this significant problem, as all GPs are entitled to have access to accurate and up-to-date information about their pension.

Almost 1 in 4 GP Partners have reduced their hours by an average of 1.7 sessions a week because of the AA taper. This is potentially 4 million lost appointments a year. No one should have to #paytowork - the Government must urgently scrap the AA taper. tinyurl.com/3p7rt774

1 in 5 consultants who responded to our survey said they had reduced their “regular overtime” this year due to the tapered annual allowance. We’re urging the Government to remove the annual allowance taper, as no one should be #payingtowork tinyurl.com/3p7rt774

The consultant pay deal was clear that all rates should be negotiated. If you are going to impose cuts, caps and cartels without agreement, expect doctors in our @theBMA to fight back.

This is of course, at the moment, speculation. Speculation that is seen before every budget albeit the speculation is louder this year, it is still just that
Any government would be foolish to not consider the secondary behavioural impacts in plans of senior people in the NHS
Changing pension rules every 5 minutes. Had what I thought was contractual arrangement when started my pension. Mortgage planning in the bin due to government using my pension as petty cash. More changes. Not yours hands off! @goldstone_tony telegraph.co.uk/money/pensio…

Complete nonsense from @Telegraph @journomadeleine 👇implying number of people getting £100k pensions is exploding (& trying to link it to pay awards). We told them it was nonsense BEFORE they published. Truth is its a TINY proportion, getting SMALLER.
Utter nonsense quote from @JohnRalfe1 too (not the only one). Full🧵tomorrow
