NHS staff turned to Twitter to condemn Jeremy Hunt today after he lashed out at the health service for the standard of its weekend care.
Dozens of medical staff posted pictures of themselves in uniform with the hashtag #ImInWorkJeremy in a bid to show the Health Secretary their commitment.
It comes after Mr Hunt suggested senior staff were not working enough weekend shifts and said top doctors should ‘get real’ about the importance of a seven-day service during a radio interview on Thursday.
The selfie campaign was launched on Facebook by a trainee doctor, according to medical website Pulse.
The unnamed person told the publication: 'This is not an attack on other specialities, it’s an attack on Mr Hunt’s expectation that we as doctors can just wave wands and make things happen.'
Lobby group Keep Our NHS Public supported the campaign on Twitter, writing: 'Hashtag for health workers who want to alert the world when working 24/7 is #ImInWorkJeremy. Hope you're listening @Jeremy_Hunt.'
