To all the very well informed people who love to talk about 'lithium mining' and its impact on the planet, maybe we should stop mining and refining iron ore first. (joking, we need iron ore)
We have never stopped working.
We stopped attending court to draw attention to your wilful destruction of the criminal justice system. But we continued to work, unpaid, every damn day.
And an average five year-wait for a rape trial is not “swift justice”, is it?
@ShaunLintern@HTolson I wondered if this “minimum safe level” that is being targeted at the unions was equally targeted at the UK Government, so we could sue the minister for failing to provision sufficient staff in A&E, the care sector, commuter rail lines, etc.?

The question with the NHS is not why it is has disintegrated so much, but why it has been allowed to disintegrate so much. With sufficient staff & capacity, in a joined up system with excellent IT & data, add a big push for public health improvement & prevention, it would thrive.
A maths question for Rishi Sunak:
If you promised to hire 50,000 additional nurses but 40,000 nurses quit last year, how many nurses are you short of your target thanks to your refusal to improve pay and conditions?
Some "statistics" which Rishi Sunak might like to take a look at, thanks to his Govt's #Brexit shambles:
- Productivity down 4%
- Trade down 15%
- Food prices up 6%
- Tax revenue down by £40 billion

The Tories are busy banning onshore wind & solar farms in fields.
The decision to double your energy bill was a political choice.
The NHS is completely BROKEN
It WASNT broken by COVID/Ukraine/inflation(*delete excuse)
It was broken by deliberate CHOICES to break it
RT if you want this/next government to make CHOICES to properly fund the NHS, reward its staff & provide better healthcare for UK population
Here’s the video in which Vote Leave promised shorter A&E waiting times once we left the EU.
Now, six and a half years after the referendum, the number of people waiting for more than four hours in A&E is the highest on record.
