Last Notes npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I do not want a special strategy. I do not want a weird hub. I certainly don't want a Yelp for hospitals payment scheme. I want funded capacity under strong management and governance, reduced waiting times, and best treatments from high quality research. I want ethical practice and psychological safety for a diverse workforce and population. I want reduced health inequalities. Nearly 2 years after taking power, Streeting's readiness to say the NHS is failing seems ill-advised npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss And the public and third sectors are experiencing the same headwinds. People aren't filling vacancies, let alone creating new ones. It's awful out there npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss How many headlines of 'Government agrees £1bn cut to NHS to appease Trump' will run, do you reckon? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss If it takes, say, 13 years for that to happen, you could well have refugees who have children born in the UK, who have only known life here. They are proposing to e.g. send parent back to a country they haven't known for years, also ripping their UK-born children out of the only country and perhaps language they know. May also separate adult couples if partner is of a different nationality. What human rights? Labour are xenophobic ghouls just like the last lot npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I think California quail are some of the most charming birds. Glad they're up on the mountain to keep you company npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Sounding the alarm in the ways that have been tried is not enough, at least on its own. People are willing to opine about their data, or feelings about data, but comparatively little is being done to create the revolutionary systemic change that is necessary for survival npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss I am aware of the supposed paradox and need for housing. Planning isn't sought for housing in the abstract, though. People object to specific developments. Missing nuance makes it easy to label people as NIMBYs rather than dig into the deeper issues. Proposals should be better and focus on place-making, not endless sprawl of car-dependent, environment-destroying, ugly but unaffordable boxes lacking commensurate infrastructure. Those might stand a better chance of local support npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Share link to article: https://on.ft.com/3DezFdG npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Even my Tory FiL thinks the Haigh story is a bizarre overreaction to a total non-issue. It seems to have been an extremely trivial matter over which police went crackers, and a sudden storm over a known and spent conviction. When we treat experience of the carceral system as a lifelong stain then we create permanent disadvantage that traps less privileged folk than Haigh in crime npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Wasn't aware farmers were a social class. Also, if it's a class war against someone other than the working class (as you noted, no one mentions *those* class wars), then are those papers accepting farmers aren't working-class? Or at least not the ones whinging about this? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Correlation isn't causation. There's a real an unanswered question about whether any causal relationship exists between those two variables and, if so, in which direction (i.e. are we seeing that anxious, depressed people spend more time on social media rather than the other way round) npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Absolutely. I am contemplating getting on the site mgmt group to try and at least tackle new badness npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss The NHS is not at its core a prevention service. Most PH -- especially around the building blocks of health -- is done by local authorities (context is set by national policy). The PH grant from central gov't has seen nine consecutive years of cuts, coming to a 24% per-person real-terms reduction in PH funding. This has fallen unequally on more deprived communities. Yes, even through COVID. The tub won't stop overflowing until someone turns off the tap npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss But the weird quasi-religious devotion to the idol of SMEs is just one reason she probably won't go this route. And there's probably not enough HMRC staff to tackle the avoidance npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss He's gorgeous. Is he a particular breed? npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss Did you see any children in lobster suits? There were advertisements for the Hepworth on every train platform we visited today and they all featured a child in a red lobster suit complete with little black eyes on stalks npub12pxqvxd09e85xu27a2mnlv36wtdurvmhavkequxv94f4w0gnsquq0e3xte The Crafty Miss As the article says, incidence (new diagnoses) appears to be stabilising or tailing off. And the prevalence is still small even if the relative increase is high. I'm more concerned by the proportion not carrying an epi-pen. 1/3 not carrying their best chance of surviving an anaphylactic event in a community setting is a shocking figure
