Around 57% of GP appts now don’t involve a doctor. One study found this reduced patient satisfaction and increased the chance of ending up in A&E. GPs told us they are being “replaced” with hundreds sat at home without work. More in today’s paper 👇🏼

Report in the Sunday Telegraph: Senior doctors say they are silenced and dismissed by hospitals when they raise concerns. They call Freedom to Speak Up “useless” and a tool used against them. A Gov report found just 4% of employment tribunal cases win.

It’s a disappointing reality but he grew up on the streets of Tocopilla in Chile & is 1 in millions to be blessed with this talent that can make him and his families life a lot easier. If he can double his wages why not. He’s not an Arsenal fan & never has been. He’s a mercenary.

Video Assistant Referee would have cleared up that it wasn’t a penalty, and that it was a double touch, but unfortunately no amount of replays will change the fact we were awful. Embarrassing.

Genuinely sad to see Theo go. He joined at the start of our decline & had pressure to live up to Henry from 16. Despite all the frustrations, he helped us to 3 FA Cups, a lot of beating Spurs & will go down in history as 1 of the 18 to have ever scored 100 goals for the Arsenal.
