The way we treat our Nurses.
HiBoris and the rest of the Cabinet were out clapping for the NHS.
What a Con, now look what they have done.

If we do have a second wave I hope they say sod off.
The Government have enough money to give a huge contract to a Private Company for track and trace, which does not work but are unwilling to pay those on the frontline.
It stinks.

Sign of the times I'm afraid Swims.Just not enough cash to go around.
Disgruntled nurses ... disgruntled furloughed workers ... disgruntled hospitality sector businesses going bust ... disgruntled parents cos schools haven't opened and some are closing instead of staying open to look after key worker kids during the summer holidays so thus ends their free childcare.

Hi
Both Houses of Parliament still have enough money to subsidise their food and drink to the tune of £4 million a year.

Re: The way we treat our Nurses.
Once again people are criticizing the government's ideas on how to manage the country's finances... when they have no idea!If we waste money on helping people, who are finding it hard to manage because they will lose a couple of months pay, just think what it will be like if the NHS budget can't meet its targets so have to get rid of many long term nurses. That will delay many operations
Only a fool thinks that governments have a never ending supply of cash, but we need to remember that they don't.... because if we have to borrow too much from elsewhere, everybody's standard of living will plummet.
Swim if you believe you are right, then you should become an MP, which will mean a lot of hard work, then ask your questions in the house of commons!
I have said this before, but I will try again..... the only way we will come through this Covid19 disaster is for the whole country to work together, or we will all find there is not enough money to put food on the table. We worked together after WW2, so why can't we do it again now, instead of trying to lay blame at the government's door?

See also if you wish, my recent thread on OFF about that very expensive and IMO an extremely wasteful 'paint job':

I agree and people have to realise that the coffers are not endlessly full, this is the relevant statement in the article for me...Yet again the media is attempting to make a big deal out of something ignoring the underlining details to score points.
Thousands of people are dying of cancer, heart disease and other medical conditions because resources have been diverted to fight C19,we need to get back to treating everyone and spread the finite resources more evenly.

Re: The way we treat our Nurses.
From the article..The media is doing a big disservice to us all by fostering this trend.
Why don't we borrow even more money and give it to anyone who wants it and keep everyone at home paid by the government indefinitely
, after all many of us over 50's wouldn't be the ones suffering the consequences our children and grandchildren will.Lets rediscover our backbones and start pulling our weight more and grumbling less.
