Glad all’s well then ! Seriously though, as you work there you’ve obviously got a better understanding of certain elements of the NHS and I’m not suggesting for a minute that the suggestions are going to fix everything but even relatively minor changes or savings can correlate to big numbers...

I agree 100% with the sentiment Ian but why is this money being wasted ??? Is there less accountability in the public sector ? Let’s just say there was a private sector firm employed to undertake all of the purchasing, to get the best deals on products, medicines etc and incentivised on their...

I named a few off the top of my head earlier ie clamping down on unattended appointments (15 million appointments according to NHS), allowing/not recovering foreign tourism costs (again estimated at several hundreds of million per annum). In addition there are numerous negligence claims against...

I would define something that way when it appears that however much you throw in it, it always needs more. I agree that every civilised country needs free health care and the US system is an absolute disgrace, however, that doesn’t mean we don’t need to try to change and improve what we’ve...

£125bn last year !!! As I said earlier it’s a money pit and we (the public) are to partly to blame.....poor/unhealthy lifestyles, misuse of services etc etc. In addition to this we are living longer so need more NHS care/services. There needs to be some major changes though as it’s creaking ...

I’ve got to be honest, I’ve never seen/read the book. I was just saying I didn’t think he tried to destroy the NHS whilst Health Secretary.

Im no big Hunt fan but he had to deal with the budget he was given to some extent (the actual deal for junior doctors was better than what they were on previously but it needed weekend flexibility). The NHS, whilst a fantastic service that none of us would want to lose is a total money pit. The...

When I heard him on a Q&A on LBC I thought he came across pretty well as well Ps ‘tried to destroy the NHS’ is a bit strong. I actually thought the junior doctors stand off (which was seen as his major issue/fuck up during his time as health secretary) was an attempt to improve the nhs service...

Agreed. If the club think our strikers are the finished article then not getting anyone else in is crazy, however, at ages 22-24 I’m guessing Robins can see plenty of opportunity for improvement. Fingers crossed he’s right. I believe at least one or two will kick on this coming season and with...

Just been listening to LBC (radio station)....sad I know ! Had hunt on and now gove for an hour each, interviewed and callers questions. Far better way to understand what they’re about rather than a shouty, point scoring exercise. C4s programme might’ve been a better Q&A, however, neither gave...

Didn’t miss much Sure he had a couple of liveners before going on....reckon Rory tucked in as well !

Let’s be honest, that was shambolic. Probably justified Boris not turning up to the previous one. Too many people wanting to get heard, gove looking into the wrong camera, Hunt staring right through the correct one (scary !), Rory making a point of being overly honest. Works with two or three...

Otis/Matthew - I’ve not watched when they see us yet (next on list !) but worth tracking down Central Park Five documentary from a few years ago. Ps other good docs - Operation Odessa, last breath and legend of cocaine island (in that order)

To be fair I’m not a trump fan (a dangerous bafoon a fair bit of the time), however, he does appear to have a bit more affinity for our country than many others past and present world leaders (including some of our own politicians) I haven’t been through all the pages on here but guessing...

Unfortunately, this is what it leads to.... Brexit Party pensioner hit with milkshake outside polling station | Metro News Gutless coward

All I could think of when I heard about the incident was ‘salted caramel and banana milkshake’ ....sounds nice ‘£5.25’....that’s more than a pint of Estrella ps bit of a waste really

Pretty confident that Bayliss will end up playing at a higher level than us in the short term. Would be great to keep hold of him for at least one more season, reckon after a tough second season he’ll have a good one next year.

I disagree with 5live, spoiled ballot papers actually shows an engagement in politics (people bothering to go and spoil it is a protest vote), just a total dissatisfaction of the clowns in parliament ! Low turnout probably shows more of a lack of engagement so interesting/positive to see some...

Talking about nationally...obviously;)

Not at all. This is a semi protest vote against the main two parties handling of Brexit. I think the European Elections would be a better baraomenter on views of Brexit as the new parties will be involved (probably equally as split as referendum). My point remains the same, UKIP have pushed...
