    I revel in the fact that this is a general strike in all but name.
    The proles are getting restless and seeking justice.

    It’s time for an economic revolution. Capitalism today is failing us, killing us, and robbing from our children’s future.

    Capitalism is failing in Hollywood. Some actors make millions while others struggle waiting tables to make ends meet. Let’s redistribute the wealth. Equal pay for all actors. All actor compensation should be paid directly to SAG. Then each member will be given their fair share.

    If you think the wait times for an Ambulance are bad now……..just wait and see what it’s gonna be like if the billionaire Sunak gets his way.
    Ah well, it’ll be easy to recruit a few more DRIVERS (as that’s all we do)…….they are queuing out the door as we speak, eh ?

    Stainsey we have been told by PM there are plenty of the people on the dole now millions, and those that haven’t been already recruited into the NHS as consultants, A&E doctors and nurses are available immediately to take over as drivers and paramedics.

    Don't worry...we have been reassured that it be all ok

    Getting a driver won’t be a problem……getting someone willing to work a 12 hour shift without a break, often having that extended as you get a late job might be harder.
    Hopefully these new “Drivers” will be cool with cutting down the bloated body of a suicide victim….or ok with spending 45 minutes giving CPR to en elderly faller……or keep their head when every **** cuts out in front of you while you have a 2 year old in the back of the Ambulance, having a seizure and on the verge of going in to cardiac arrest ? Or be willing to get in 30 mins early every day and VDI their ambulance so it’s ready to go within the 10 min official time ?

    After all, we are only drivers so shouldn’t be a problem I’m sure…….and then they wonder why we are angry and struggling to retain staff.

    I liked this post, not because I like it.. but because you are so so correct. I have no idea how you all do this day after day after day
    Great respect to you...but I know respect doesn't pay the bills or mend your mental state of mind

    How about we all go out on our doorsteps on a Thursday night and give them a clap - that should help

    You may think everyone hates you, so a wee story from Mrs Steels today....one of her staff nurses stopped in to the local BP garage on way in to work this morning. The girl on the counter noticed her uniform and went round the counter to the flower display, picked a bunch of flowers up and gave them to her, saying "Thanks for everything you do". When she got into work she presented them to my wife telling her the story, and then said to her "You're the most deserving in here, they're for you"....

    Wonder if the BP girl will feel the same when the nurses all go out on strike, but doubt she'll change her mind - there's a strong feeling up here that they have the publics support.
