@DefenceHQ @DMS_MilMed
Jason Leitch, you claim to have spent your career improving healthcare. Show us the evidence of what you actually did at NHS Tayside while Sam Eljamel was harming patients.
You were employed by NHS Tayside from 2012, and your time there overlapped with the period when serious concerns about Eljamel’s practice and patient safety were emerging. Your close association with former CEO Gerry Marr raises legitimate questions about what you knew, what you were told, and what action you took.
Did you raise concerns about Eljamel? Did you challenge the leadership over supervision and oversight? Were you involved in any discussions or decisions about the concerns surrounding his practice? If you took action to protect patients, where is the evidence?
We want more than general assurances or claims about a career spent improving healthcare. Publish the relevant correspondence, meeting records and documented actions that demonstrate what you knew, what you challenged, and what you did.
If you played a role in improving patient safety at NHS Tayside, show us the evidence. If you did not, explain why.
Eljamel’s patients are living with devastating, lifelong consequences. They deserve transparency, answers and accountability from everyone whose role may have been relevant.
Eljamel’s victims deserve documented answers, not another statement about your career achievements. Accountability requires evidence.
Jason Leitch, what is your evidence?

Covid inquiry and care homes but let’s not forget that @scotgov said those working in care homes testing positive may need to continue working
Keep retweeting this @KayBurley asks @JohnSwinney about #Covid_19 positive staff being asked to continue shifts in care homes
I'm getting a sick and tired of people knocking electric cars when they clearly don't know what they're talking about.
I own two top-of-the-range EVs: a Jaguar and a Porsche.
The acceleration is incredible, the handling is superb, and they both lo fantastic.
Running costs are pennies, maintenance is practically non-existent, and neither has lost a penny. in value since I bought it.
Honestly, my only complaint is that if i take a corner a bit too enthusiastical' they fly off the track and disappear under the sofa.
Opinion poll on politics … struggled to answer this @WingsScotland
I never heard @ReformUKScot telling @GrahamSMSP to resign his seat when he defected from @ScotTories bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c674…
I’d trust the ones who obviously know how to run a successful business and not a party who are blatantly anti business

🔥🔥Just weeks before #Eljamel’s final surgery at @NHSTayside on 9 Dec 2013, Jason Leitch attended ex-CEO Gerry Marr’s leaving do, posting photos and warm farewells.
Backslapping all round, seemingly without a care in the world….while patients were being butchered.
Sadly to say @YSINational can no longer face their posts being scrutinised so have spat their dummies out
I’m sure @JohnSwinney told his conference that “the stars were aligning for independence” 🤔🤔🤔

Jenny Gilruth, former Modern Studies teacher, on Scotland’s falling PISA scores: the problem isn’t our results, it’s the test. Let’s hope the OECD changes it.
So, the Deputy FM’s answer to Scotland trailing England in PISA: wait for the OECD to stop measuring what Scottish pupils can’t do. 🙄🤦♂️
Her union counterpart Andrea Bradley, head of the EIS, another captured institution, claims that PISA rewards “memorisation and rote learning.” She couldn't be more wrong if she tried.
PISA is built to do the opposite. The OECD designed it to test whether 15-year-olds can apply what they know to unfamiliar, real-world problems, and it deliberately avoids testing any particular national syllabus. If any international test should suit a skills-and-capacities curriculum like CfE, it’s PISA. So “cheap learning rather than deep learning” doesn’t really work as an explanation for England’s results. The more plausible reading is the one Gilruth half-concedes: you need a solid base of knowledge before you can apply it, which the CfE doesn't produce.
There’s also a consistency problem. Scotland performed well in the early PISA rounds (pre-SNP/CfE), and nobody in Scottish education called the OECD a marketing operation then. The test hasn’t changed its purpose. Scotland’s results did.
English pupils did better in Pisa due to 'shallow' rote learning, says SNP's Jenny Gilruth

SNP couldn’t fill up a hall despite insisting they're booming and independence is imminent. For three days, the conference centre felt like an airport at 3am, while loyal attendees were asked to suspend disbelief and slip into an indy dreamworld. Column⬇️ thescottishsun.co.uk/news/16…
