    Apparently if something that woke lefties dream up seems too stupid to be true, they dismiss it as Daily Mail lies even the NHS website.

    3 of them laughing at how ludicrous sounding a diversity and inclusion manager sounds in a hospital.

    Imagine if Labour got in, they would be mandatory in every single company.

    There are a few areas where diversity is deemed unimportant, never seen an English or black water working in Chinatown restaurants they are 100% Chinese staffed .

    Not very inclusive, same with Indian restaurants and " family run " newsagents.

    Not much promotion of diversity in certain sectors.

    You're comparing something with over 1 million staff to businesses with less than 10/family owned.

    We allowed our manufacturing industry to dwindle when it became apparent that other places in the world would undercut it with cheaper labour. It seemed to make more sense to concentrate on high wage jobs.

    The expensive coffees are mostly American companies and the people buying their products are simpletons, some of them the same simpletons that complain about their cost of living outstripping their income while they pay ridiculous money for satellite and online television subscriptions, mobile phone contracts and the latest fashions.

    Surely this should have been on the Coronavirus thread?

    It demonstrates the inconvenient truth that the NHS Confederation chose to ignore when clamouring for ‘Plan B’ nonsense. With the vast majority vaccinated and most of the increase in case numbers being amongst the young – those least likely to become seriously ill – the NHS is not in danger of being ‘overwhelmed’. What the chart does not show is that half of all NHS beds are empty. Back in April 2020 when Covid peaked under lockdown, a third of all beds were empty as well as temporary Nightingale hospitals.

    The problem for this year’s NHS Winter Crisis will almost certainly be influenza, not the plague. As influenza hardly got a mention last winter under lockdown, this year’s influenza vaccine could turn out to be very ineffective as each year’s vaccine is synthesised from the previous year’s variant.

    So Savid didn't say this 3 days ago?

    But he called for a return to the “Blitz spirit” of the early days of the pandemic, warning Britons that unless they “do their bit” by taking up the offer of vaccines and booster jabs they could lose the freedoms they have enjoyed since the lifting of lockdown in July

    France and Germany have massive manufacturing industries including state controlled steel manufacturing. They are also amongst the best paid workforces in Europe with an average wage far higher than the UK. Better pensions and working conditions than us as well.

    But hey, don't let your stupidity stop you from toeing the "that's the shìte they feed me" line.

    Tory dogma has ripped the heart out of Britain's industrial independence. The privatisation of the nations crown jewels in the 80s have left us a crippled nation relying on exports to fill the most basic of our needs.

    Miniscule steel making capacity, miniscule ship building capacity, miniscule productions line capacity.

    God help when we go to war with the EU army!

    The Spanish will just turn our electricity off, they own most of it ffs.

    Rool Britania though!
