NHS Workers were due their Annual Pay Award on 1st April….we are still waiting due to the Gov missing THEIR OWN deadline.
Band 2 colleagues have received an EMERGENCY UPLIFT so that they are not paid on illegal hourly rates due to the delay.
RT if you agree this is a DISGRACE

Yes and the answer is to teach them to love the empire more and definitely not build a country worth loving

As a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, let me be very clear on this @UKLabour.
There is no ‘eyeing up’ the welfare budget for savings to offset your economic car crash without causing unimaginable suffering and premature deaths.
You will be judged by the decisions you make.

This image shows what 'trail hunts' really do—throw foxes to hounds. Fox hunting is still happening in the UK, despite being illegal.
The pro-hunt brigade will try to fool the public into believing they're lawful.
Expose the truth—RT this far and wide.

Hospital league tables are a disastrous idea.
You do not improve standards by shaming hard-working NHS staff, damaging morale and adding unnecessary stress.
We should support - not scapegoat - our medics. That means giving them the resources they need to provide care for all.

Hot take: Formulation-driven therapy, OT, housing support, benefit advisors, support to leave abusive relationships/systems are the forms of support that should be offered to those in distress. Work is not, and should not be a universal measure of ‘wellness’.

Sorry but no. Someone who is ill enough to require inpatient admission in a mental health hospital is not at the right place to discuss getting a job. And I suspect a lot of doctors will not co-operate with this.

Job coaches sent to mental health wards is clearly obscene but it’s the natural end point of an agenda that equates health with productivity. If you believe humans are only valuable when they earn a wage, the NHS is a tool - not to help patients - but to get them back to work.
ALT Job coaches could visit seriously ill patients on mental health wards to try to get them back to work, the government has said. Trials of employment advisers giving CV and interview advice in hospitals produced "dramatic results", Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall told the BBC.
