Hundreds of nurses and members of the public have begun a march from @uclh to Downing Street in their action for better pay.
Chants of '1,2,3,4,5 keep our NHS alive' can be heard throughout the crowd.
Remember holidays? Sunshine and sea-breeze and the smell of salt mixed with coconutty lotion and grains of sand stuck in book spines and a cool beer with crisps bought at a foreign supermarket at the end of the day. I miss them.
Damn New Zealand being normal, doing things well, having good leadership and nice election results while the rest of us live in disease circus nightmare land
I think it's probably not right to claim the NHS "coped with the first wave of covid".
Yes, we avoided a triage situation of choosing between covid patients for the last ICU bed.
But that was bought at the cost of stopping everything else. That's not coping, it's redistributing.
