Any thoughts on these links between the IHPN and Westminster? @carolinejmolloy.bsky.social @drtonyosullivan.bsky.social @jujuliagrace.bsky.social @everydoctor.org.uk @chpithinktank.bsky.social @jolyonmaugham.bsky.social @ethanshone.bsky.social

Chris Whitehouse has had meetings with Karin Smyth MP and David Lawson of the DHSC.
