As a ā¦ā¦ā¦@AskNationwideā© account holder I have voted against this obscene pay package. I hope the majority of account holders will do the same. If the Board ignores a majority vote then they should be voted out.

/2 dead hand of the dictat and inadequate funding was closing in. Now, of course, Streeting has unplugged a lot of the wiring. It wasnāt perfect and needed changing. But where now is the calm, sensible discussion amongst all relevant parties. š¤·āāļø A grand committee? Why not?.
I was a manager from 1993 to 2010 and part of the managerisation of the NHS. I did my very best but left because the rule by dictat was exhausting and often nonsensical. I rejoined in a GP Fed in 2015 and for 7 years it was wonderful. Close to clinicians and patients, but the 1/.

It worked once but was swept aside by managers, special advisors, whisperers and ineffective Boards. Buried in a landscape of silosā¦ and we are no better for it. It might just be what we need again? .Could it be any worse?

Love having yāall here, you are very welcome to stay, but if youāre so wealthy you can live wherever you like and pay less tax then thatās your choice and you can just fuck right off and go there. Please. Letās have people who are invested in this country.

#GazaDoctorsUnderAttack.Truly harrowing. Itās hard to comprehend that a state whose ancestors suffered appalling atrocities at the hands of the Nazis in the last century could itself visit such inhumanity on other human beings in this one.

Nailed it. I wish politicians like Pat McFadden wouldnāt treat the electorate like weāre f*cking idiots, (unless of course heās addressing Reform voters, in which case, fair play).

It is surely incumbent on us here in the UK to show our solidarity with the American people when their fascist dictator comes to meet a real king. He will be as welcome as Jeffrey Epstein at a kids birthday party. #TrumpParade.

Tbh this has been an issue for as long as I can remember. Everyone knows what the problem is but the Treasury, Government and silly arses in NHSE/DHSC think that cracking the whip is going to make a difference. #floggingadeadhorse.

āTrump's quick intervention in LA may thrill his base but inflame tensionsā. Isnāt that what itās meant to do? So obvious - not even subtle.

Hereās what should happen but not whatās happening, sadly, because āthe marketsā and āpoliticsā and consequently the Treasury donāt allow time for our society to adjust compassionately or fairly. Itās all about the money, sod humanity.
This gets to the nub of the problem facing DWP: Secretary of State & Ministers are genuinely committed to reducing the cost of disability benefits by properly supporting disabled people to get health care & good jobs. Not by just slashing benefits. 1/3
