Japan has seen a significant reduction in cerebral palsy births since they introduced a no-fault scheme in 2009 https://t.co/qKwWXfspqd — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

Do ‘no fault’ systems cost more? Michael Mercier told us that the New Zealand system is actually getting fewer high-cost claims since they introduced their system in 2005 alongside much better data as clinicians hesitate less in bringing forward examples of potential error https://t.co/ydkEcLWXbT — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

@commonshealth heard evidence on NHS litigation reform this morning which costs a staggering £2.2bn every year - often forgetting the system learning that is a top priority for families. Sweden’s less adversarial system is a major contributor to their lower levels of patient harm https://t.co/pasz9HJns6 — PolitiTweet.org

These are some of the toughest times in memory for independent shops, businesses and charities. Dunsfold Village Shop is a brilliant example and one of my constituency’s gems. Shop local, eat local and visit local #SouthWestSurreyBounceback #dunsfoldvillageshop #shoplocal https://t.co/YLrSVu7AwO — PolitiTweet.org

Huge congratulations to those whose services were acknowledged in the 2022 New Years Honours List. In SWS there was Emma Simpson, Kylie Grimes, Nicolas Marsh, Thomas Rutherford, Nicolas Owen & Fay Sharpe. They have all made us very proud at a time when cheering up is much needed. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

The NHS faces not just omicron staff absences but permanent and dangerous staffing shortfalls. I didn’t persuade the PM to address this properly today but the year is young and the battle goes on… https://t.co/a7uSO9BJHf — PolitiTweet.org

It’s now or never for workforce reform…please @sajidjavid @borisjohnson @RishiSunak seize the moment. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

We need short term measures including retention bonuses, overseas recruitment & fixing the pensions tax disincentives. But most of all we need a long term plan to make sure we’re training enough drs& nurses for the future. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

They rejected this amendment when I proposed it in the Commons on cost grounds. I agree it does cost more to train additional doctors, but not as much as the outrageous £6 bn we spend annually on locum and agency staff caused by shortages. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

The starting point is honesty about the gaps which is why it is VITAL the government backs regular independent reviews of the numbers we should be training as Baroness Cumberlege is proposing in her amendment to the Health and Care Bill supported by former NHS CEO Lord Stevens. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

With a 2.1m global shortage of doctors & 15m global shortage of nurses it is time to OVERHAUL NHS and care workforce planning. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

But why on earth do we allow both our freedoms and the safety of our care to be put at risk by workforce shortages that are ultimately solveable? Omicron may be exacerbating the crisis but it is not the cause of it - poor workforce planning is. And that can be fixed. — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

It would be a big mistake to think the NHS & care staffing crisis is ‘temporary.’  Even pre Omicron we had 93k NHS vacancies, with shortages in every major speciality, & 105k care vacancies leading to serious gaps in the safety of care offered to patients https://t.co/gh4OhKMjyo — PolitiTweet.org

More encouragingly London covid admissions appear to have peaked according to @HSJnews. Given London is the epicentre the Government are right to hold their nerve whilst doing everything possible to support the NHS, BUT… https://t.co/TCpeP8yEKk — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

Omicron clearly having a catastrophic impact on staff absences, with at least 8 trusts declaring internal incidents - ie saying they can’t provide safe care. Just the latest eg was today’s report from the NW that 17 hospitals are pausing non-urgent care https://t.co/jceSTCcLI1 — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

Today I asked @BorisJohnson a PMQ on the staffing crisis in the NHS. Here’s why it would be a BIG mistake to think the NHS staffing crisis is a ‘temporary’ one caused by Omicron. A thread… — PolitiTweet.org

💔 call with a local father desperately trying to get to the Philippines for his young son's funeral who died tragically. He needs an emergency visa + quarantine exemption, so I will contact the Ambassador now. A sober reminder of the many human nightmares caused by the pandemic. https://t.co/tDQWdnHLvS — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations ⁦@kyliegrimes⁩ on your MBE in the NY honours. At your homecoming in August we said your Paralympic gold made Farnham proud - now we are even prouder! https://t.co/wijzmo58r8 — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

Our focus now is how the NHS is coping with Covid absences.But today's @thetimes report about how autistic people get parked indefinitely in secure hospitals is a human rights scandal we MUST address in 2022 - see too our report https://t.co/67UO6dXgPw https://t.co/ZaPX17D6SO — PolitiTweet.org

It was a pleasure Gyles. That passage stayed with me for many years since I read it in your wonderful book and gives great inspiration to believers, non-believers and lapsed believers alike! — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

The NHS is under massive pressure this Christmas but we should not let firefighting stop vital long term reforms. Here are my top three in today’s ⁦@Telegraph⁩ https://t.co/kSjTlfzEaY — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

Read this extraordinary interview Desmond Tutu gave to Gyles Brandreth imagining a conversation with God after death. I have always loved this part embracing human imperfections: ‘I create only masterpieces’. RIP Archbishop Tutu, truly a masterpiece himself https://t.co/cCVQdDIkJe — PolitiTweet.org

‘You may not be a perfect father but at least you have a perfect daughter’ -perfect Christmas message from my 9 year old…and of course 100% true https://t.co/wVErDp4b9F — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

Merry Christmas to all, especially those families separated by bereavement, illness or injustice. The first two are harder to prevent but one thing we can do in 2022 is #FreeNazanin, Anoosheh, Mehran & Morad. They deserve to be with their families every bit as much as us — PolitiTweet.org

Jeremy Hunt @Jeremy_Hunt

I am incredibly proud to represent not just a beautiful area but people whose community spirit brings cheer to many throughout the year and not just during the festive season. Merry Christmas to all! #merrychristmas🎄 #mpsofinstagram #southwestsurrey #surreyspirit https://t.co/L6n5maYCt1 — PolitiTweet.org
