Hospitals are full, Emergency Departments are full, ambulances are queuing outside. This is dangerous for patients and delays paramedics returning to the community + responding to emergency calls. There must be action taken to increase capacity and maintain flow. #crowding #NHS

93% of the population attend state school. The fact that lots of doctors think going to state school makes them unusual just shows how horribly overrepresented people from fee paying schools are in the profession.
