🚨NEW NHS ENGLAND STATS 🚨

How many people wait longer than 12 hours on a trolley for an emergency hospital bed?

In January 2011, it was 17 people.

In January 2024, it was 54,308 people.

Labour pain is notorious for being one of the worst pains in the world.

Does anyone seriously think we'd be offering sterile water as analgesia if men gave birth?

Women deserve better than this.

Out of hours plumber £80-£200/hr
Out of hours mechanic £80-£200/hr
Out of hours electrician £80-£200/hr

But Sunak thinks these junior doctors with £100k of debt deserve only £22/hr for extra locum shifts after working a 48 hour week paid at £13/hr.

No wonder they're striking.

It is deplorable & heartbreaking that a 2 year old boy died of starvation this month after his father had a heart attack and left him with no food

But don’t worry the govt are talking about Rwanda..

After the effect of 'Mr Bates vs the Post Office', let’s hope Toby Jones is also working on new TV dramas about water pollution, climate change, covid, PPE contracts, the refugee crisis, the cost of living, energy prices, and the NHS

Almost 8 million people on NHS waiting lists, 3.3 million children living in poverty, 1 million destitute and 2.9 million families having to access food banks in the last 12 months. Welcome to modern Britian.

Time for change is coming. Be strong enough to use it.

Your reminder...

In 2021 Sunak cut the money given to the Environment Agency to maintain existing flood protection schemes

Reduced it by £34m to £201m

And then to £194m the following year

For context:

Amount spent on Rwanda plan to date:

£290m.

Monday I was the only F1 covering all medical wards at work. There was a cardiac arrest after my shift ended which I attended. Tuesday, I finished my shift performing CPR on a gentleman who deteriorated unexpectedly. I was the one who decided to escalate. (1/2)

Thames Water began 2024 with a bang, discharging sewage for over 100 hours from Witney treatment works into the Thames.

Sewage is spilling into almost every river upstream from Oxford.

This is an environmental catastrophe and govt is letting water companies get away with it.

When Junior Doctors are on £16 an hour and MP's are on £46 an hour.

And raising the Junior Doctors pay by £4 an hour is unaffordable, even though they just raised MP's pay by £5 an hour.

It's hard not to see the lie.

RT if Junior Doctors NEED paying.

Doctors. They’re doctors. Stop belittling & infantilising highly trained & skilled professionals who could be saving your life in a cardiac arrest, operating on your brain to remove a tumour, transplanting your kidney or ensuring your last days on earth are pain free & dignified.

If you're not angry enough at WCs already this will definitely put you over the edge.

Fantastic tool by the @Guardian. Enter your postcode and see exactly how much of your water bill goes to pay for greed, incompetence and failure.

Me? 25% 😡

Just say we sent the marbles back to Greece and I really, really wanted to see them. It would be cheaper for me to fly from Manchester to Athens (£168) than get the train to Euston (£255)

Did I mention the wife of new SoS for Environment is head of major infrastructure at Anglian Water a company currently entangled in the 'Largest ever criminal investigation into potential widespread breaches of environmental permit conditions' by the EA?

Just a little reminder that Government have spent more money on the failed Rwanda scheme than it did on domestic abuse refuges for women and children.

Are we seriously going to have yet another Queen’s/King’s speech where the long promised new Mental Health Act fails to materialise. There is literally no point or purpose to this government.
