8pm tonight

How many of those clapping would willingly pay an extra 10£ a week to properly fund the nhs
60 million x £10 x 52
Do the math
Very few I bet
Next week come out and clap if you will do this and I'll start the collection
8 o'clock next Thursday
Silence

I’d do it in a heartbeat. If I knew for sure and certain it would be used exclusively for the NHS. Problem is I don’t trust the thieving bastards to do that. And I mean all governments, not just this one before anyone gets their balls in an uproar.

Happy to pay that.
Direct the money at caring for the elderly, disabled and people who need it.
Pissheads and people on smack who turn up at A and E regularly can fuck off though.

No it’s lame.

our lass is an NHS worker and I’m working on key infrastructure and we both think it’s a bit OTT.
Even though it’s all for us.

Much quieter in our estate last night with the exception of the dickhead bombing up and down in his car on the road opposite, beeping his horn and waving a St.George's flag.

You're sitting in a van under the tees flyover iirc

I'd gladly pay and extra 1-2% tax if it was ringfenced for health and social care budgets.

I must admit that, considering it’s likely most people in my street voted for the party that has systematically underfunded health and social care, hearing them all clapping doesn’t really sit that well with me. If I thought they’d insist on funding services properly in future I’d have more respect for them.

this virus has shown up how the care industry is treated as a second class service and offloading this to the private sector has failed. the care v health arguement was shown to be broken years ago but successive governments did nothing

 

[WezSAFC]

Turning into a dick waving contest of who claps the loudest where I live. I don't bother with it personally. I'll message my friends who are nurses just to say thanks instead.

I’ll be closing the northbound carriage way over the weekend.

why?

because I can

 

[Northumberland Rocks]

Nice effort by Brian May, Roger Taylor and Adam Lambert for NHS and Care Workers

Just seen this on CNN.

Sorry about the dodgy quality.

I'd gladly pay and extra 1-2% tax if it was ringfenced for health and social care budgets.

And yet look at how many complain about the 4% Council tax increase when half of that increase is actually ring fenced for adult social care.

I complain about it, but that's because of the cuts in grants and funding from central government which disproportionally hit poorer areas, but that's for a different thread.
