Janej that wouldn’t work for children or those with dementia. All UK should be under the same system.
I imagine that agency staff are mostly made up of nurses who left the NHS for better money? Do agency staff also have shop discounts, pension rights, holiday, maternity/paternity & sick pay?
We have to be prepared for a tsunami of equally deserving people wanting big pay rises who also worked throughout the pandemic putting their lives on the line.
The ones who should have received the biggest claps on doorsteps were those selfless people who volunteered throughout covid keeping the country going.
I always believed that nursing was a vocation, not just a job.
I might be tempted to say, ‘stick your pension scheme, I want the money now.’
Maybe some people could do with looking back at 1930’s newspapers in the archives concerning cyclists, safety, cycle tracks & accident statistics. Journalists in those days actually reported news & make very interesting reading.
Nice idea JaneJ if it were not for greed.
Unfortunately there are those countries who aren’t willing to share their resources unless at a cost in terms of both human or monetary.I believe that we need to become as self sufficient as possible so that we cannot be held to ransom in the future.
As for TimRegency, it is years since I bought a newspaper because there is no such thing these days as decent objective journalism. My views are based on experience rather than listening to those who make the loudest noise. It would do you well to remember that there are two sides to every argument & the truth is usually somewhere in between.
No matter how much investment is put into something, it doesn’t follow that it will be instant and it comes at a cost. Everything is so much easier with hindsight. The present energy crisis is down to the war in Ukraine.
What is odd, is all those people complaining that they can’t afford to heat their homes during the summer months.
Quite apart from EU settlers there are 1,000s of new houses built causing difficulies with GP surgeries, schools etc. The last couple of times I have had cause to attend A&E over recent years there were prisoners from Berwyn who appear to take priority over those waiting unless they have their own waiting room.
