New York Hospital To Stop Delivering Babies

A hospital in upstate New York announced it will temporarily stop delivering babies after six workers in a maternity ward quit instead of getting vaccinated for COVID 19.

Lewis County General Hospital in Lowville said on Friday that it will cease delivering babies after September 24.

According to WWNY, the hospital said it will work with the state’s Department of Health to make sure the maternity ward doesn’t close permanently.

Lewis County Health System Chief Executive Officer Gerald Cayer said that they can delay the service and concentrate on hiring nurses who are vaccinated and would be able to re-engage in delivering babies there in Lewis County.

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo declared in August that by September 27, all healthcare workers in the state, including staff at hospitals and long term care facilities, must receive their first COVID 19 vaccination.

Cayer said that 30 of the hospital’s employees got the COVID 19 vaccination, but 30 others quit. At least six of those were in the maternity unit, and another seven employees hadn’t decided whether to get the shot.

He continued that they’re not alone and that there are thousands of positions that are open north of the Thruway and now they have a challenge to work through, with the vaccination mandate.

President Joe Biden announced the federal government’s aggressive new strategy to combat the COVID 19 pandemic on Thursday, which included new vaccine rules that the White House says will affect two-thirds of the American workforce.

The strategy involves six steps all directed at boosting the US vaccination rate, which fell over the summer as a new surge stoked by the Delta variant plunged health care systems in areas with mostly unvaccinated populations back into chaos.

About 73.4 per cent of Americans over the age of 12 have had at least one vaccine shot, but less than 63 per cent are completely vaccinated, considerably short of the threshold to attain herd immunity.

Joe Biden’s plan includes mandating all federal workers and federal contractors get vaccinated, requiring vaccinations for more than 17 million healthcare workers at Medicare and Medicaid participating facilities and requiring all businesses with 100 or more employees to tell their workers to get vaccinated or submit to weekly COVID testing.

In Texas, employees at the Houston Methodist hospital marched out of their shifts to oppose the health system’s COVID 19 vaccine requirement in June.

And as expected, let’s see how long it takes Joe Biden to finish his destruction of the US, after all, he’s broken numerous records in the time he’s been in office.

Some people are just not sheep though and they don’t like to be herded like cattle and prefer to make their own choices about their bodies and what goes into it, and it’s extremely troubling when medical care workers are refusing the vaccine because they’re the people we’re supposed to trust, even before the government – perhaps they know something that we don’t?

But this was incredibly brave and selfless of them to sacrifice their earnings, their livelihood, and the livelihoods of their families for the medical rights of strangers, and I’m sure it must have been a particularly tough decision for them all, as they must love their jobs, being in charge of safely delivering babies into the world.

Nurses are underpaid anyway. Why would they want to jeopardise their health for so little money? After all, they need their health just as much as the next person.

Mandates lead to consequences, and nobody should be forced to put something in their body they don’t want.

Battle Of Thessaloniki

Greek police fired tear gas and water cannons on Saturday to break up a demonstration of thousands of people protesting against mandatory COVID 19 vaccinations.

Authorities said demonstrators flung flares at police in Greece’s second-biggest city of Thessaloniki, who blocked them from attempting to reach the area where Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis was due to deliver his yearly economic address.

The yearly speech typically attracts hordes of demonstrators, and police estimated more than 15,000 people, including labour unions, took part in the demonstrations on matters ranging from economic policy to COVID 19 vaccines.

The protestors fought with riot police near the venue, launching firebombs, firecrackers and stones at police, who responded with tear gas and stun grenades and gave chase to the demonstrators. The clashes lasted about an hour, and there were nine arrests.

There were also protest marches by unionists and the extreme left. Participants in the latter burned a US and a European Union flag, as well as electricity bills, but there was no encounter with police.

Demonstrations against COVID 19 vaccinations started in July after the government declared the mandatory inoculation of health care workers and nursing home workers.

Authorities have suggested vaccines could become obligatory for other groups too, such as educators.

The Federation of Public Hospital Workers POEDYN, said in a statement, yes to vaccines, but not mandatorily.

Greece has suspended almost 6,000 frontline health care workers from their jobs for missing a September 1 deadline to get at least one vaccine shot.

Earlier this month, it offered unvaccinated healthcare workers another chance to get a shot and allow those who’ve been suspended to return to work.

POEDYN is worried that a total of 10,000 unvaccinated workers could be suspended, disrupting operations at understaffed hospitals at a time when infections remain high.

Tougher air, sea and rail transport constraints also come into effect on Monday, with the unvaccinated no longer entitled to free testing.

The demonstrations came as Mitsotakis gave a talk on Greece’s economy, his keynotes address at the Thessaloniki International Fair, where heads of government traditionally announcing the coming year’s politics.

Mitsotakis noted that there were approximately 70,000 more people employed than before, despite the pandemic, 46,000 extra businesses, and bank savings increased by 35 billion euros (£29 billion), of which 20 billion increased by 35 billion euros (£29 billion), of which 20 billion (£17 billion) were from additional household savings.

The prime minister also put particular importance on climate change following extensive wildfires that devastated the country last month.

It’s occurring all over the world, but it looks like the news is being suppressed – no surprise then that Boris Johnson is teetering on introduction here.

Up until a little while ago, the West didn’t need to worry themselves with civil rights or human rights et cetera for the overall population. The attention was always on other nations with corrupt leaders who had no idea of democracy.

But now we see the authorities and ruling elites in our own countries that have chosen to follow them by driving out all freedoms, those freedoms that we fought for over the centuries, but now all they seem to want to do is achieve their own nefarious aims and enslave people.

People should stand up around the world and react against this. Maybe everyone should take a leaf from Greece’s book and quit ignoring what’s going on before it’s too late.

We could call it the Peasant’s Revolt. After all, we’ve not had one of those in the last 630’s years.

After all, there’s nothing wrong with people prepared to stand up for themselves, who believe, but more importantly – PROUD.

The governments have weaponised fear into you, using it against you, and we all know that fear is a powerful emotion that overrides rational thinking!

Joy Tinged With Sadness For Emma

British tennis superstar Emma Raducanu has revealed that she wished her parents were in New York to see her win the astonishing US Open final on Saturday after the draconian COVID rules kept them in Britain in a candid post-match press conference.

The 18-year-old from Kent, who became Britain’s first female Grand Slam winner in 44 years after defeating Canadian rival Lelyah Fernandez in straight sets at Flushing Meadows, admitted that she doesn’t talk much about tennis with her parents.

Emma Raducanu also said her tough to please father told her that she was even better than he thought, after becoming the first Briton to win a major since Virginia Wade at Wimbledon in 1977 and the first qualifier to triumph in a Grand Slam, in either the men’s or women’s game.

She told reporters that she’d spoken to her parents, but that they actually didn’t talk much about tennis, and that they just really want to know how she is in these moments, and not to have them there with her, she would have loved to have had them there, so that they could all celebrate together, or that they could have been with her to experience the same things, but that they were at home and extremely proud.

Emma Raducanu’s parents Ian and Renee Raducanu have been hugely influential in their daughter’s extraordinary journey. Romanian Ian and Renee, who’s Chinese, were living in Toronto, Canada, when only child Emma was born, and the family moved to the United Kingdom when she was two.

Both work in finance and the home is in a cul de sac in Bromley, southeast London, where Emma and her dad would hit tennis balls together in the street during the COVID lockdowns. However, they weren’t able to travel to the US to attend the tournament because of COVID rules.

In an interview with the BBC after posing for photos outside Artur Ashe Stadium, Emma Raducanu also said it meant everything to get a letter from the Queen congratulating the teen on her astonishing victory on Saturday and revealed she’s planning on framing the note.

The message from the Queen to the teenager read: ‘I send my congratulations to you on your success in winning the United States Open Tennis Championships. It is a remarkable achievement at such a young age and is testament to your hard work and dedication.

‘I have no doubt your outstanding performance, and that of your opponent, Leylah Fernandez, will inspire the next generation of tennis players. I send my warmest good wishes to you and your many supporters.’

Emma did extremely well, although it’s a shame that her parents couldn’t be there to cheer her on properly, but she’s put a smile on everyone’s faces and done Britain proud – she should enjoy the moment but she should also keep her feet firmly on the ground.

Salutations to Emma Raducanu on being the first Britain in 44 years on winning the US Open finals. She’s just inspired children to pick up a tennis racket.

This extraordinary young lady has made us British so proud.

There should be more unaccessible sports in the more deprived inner-city schools up and down this country, and disabled children should be able to participate as well because it’s character building, discipline and pride that makes this country great.

And self-esteem and confidence cuts crime and could build future world champions.

Afghanistan Soldier Beheaded By The Taliban In Chilling Video

Taliban fighters beheaded an Afghan soldier before singing as they held the severed head of the victim aloft by his hair, then shared chilling footage of the execution in a chat forum.

The video, obtained by the Washington Examiner, was reportedly shared on a private Taliban chat room but it’s not clear when it was recorded.

In the 30 second clip, the group of Taliban fighters could be heard singing ‘Mujahideen’ as they paraded the man’s head around.

Six of the men were holding rifles and another was clutching onto two bloodied knives.

It’s thought the man on the ground was an Afghan soldier due to the colour of his dark green uniform, similar to that given to the national army by the US.

The man carrying the knives set them in the air as they proceeded to sing Mujahideen, an Arabic term that refers to Muslims who fight on behalf of the faith of the Muslim community.

They then begin yelling praise for the Taliban’s supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada.

The video concludes with the group saying they must shoot the Afghan soldiers because ‘he has to look shot.’

The footage surfaced just days after Taliban protesters executed the brother of one of the Afghan resistance fighter’s leaders.

The man was the brother of Amrullah Saleh, the former Afghan vice president who became one of the leaders of anti-Taliban opposition forces in the Panjshir Valley.

The news that Saleh’s brother Rohullah Azizi was killed came days after Taliban forces took charge of the provincial centre of Panjshir, the last region holding out against them after they took control of the rest of Afghanistan last month.

Saleh told Reuters in a text that they killed him and wouldn’t let them bury him, and that they kept saying that his body should rot.

The Urdu language account of the Taliban information service Alemarah said that according to reports Rohullah Saleh was killed during combat in Panjshir.

Saleh, a former head of the National Directorate of Security, the intelligence service of the Western-backed government that collapsed last month, is at large, although his precise location remains unclear.

The National Resistance Front of Afghanistan, which groups opposition forces loyal to local leader Ahmad Massoud, has promised to continue opposing the Taliban even after the fall of Panjshir’s provincial capital Bazarak.

You can only describe these people as barbarians who have no value in human life, and it’s shocking to think that so many allied soldiers were killed, maimed, or mentally traumatised just in the name of barbarianism.

So, it’s back to the Middle Ages the Afghans go, who were given a glimpse of normal life, only to have it snatched away virtually overnight. They have lost all humanity, or what little humanity they might have had.

This is barbaric, and what hope is there for the females living under these brutal dictators?

Islam isn’t at war with the West, it’s at war with the entire world, and it wants to force its sick way of life on the world and believes in the worldwide return of the caliphate.

This is, of course, utterly shocking behaviour, but not shocking at all, if you consider that this behaviour is perfectly normal to them and their barbaric ways.

This is a country of powerful monsters, who simply enjoy butchering people they despise, and they just don’t have any purpose, and they will never change because a leopard doesn’t change its spots, and they won’t change either because they’re just like animals.

Since When Did Boozing Give You COVID?

Residents in lockdown buildings across New South Wales are being limited to six drinks per day and maintain that their deliveries are being opened and examined by authorities.

The state’s health department has introduced a drink limit in controlled buildings and maintain the measure will ensure the safety of health workers and residents.

Common Ground in Camperdown, a housing commission building in Sydney’s inner west, is the latest building to fall under a full lockdown after some cases were reported in the complex, with locals protesting about the remarkable denial of freedoms.

A resident and artist Ms Saffaa posted to Twitter and asked the NSW Police, that Common Ground residents were wondering what happened to the booze and tobacco items dropped off to them? And under which powers were they permitted to seize them? And that the last time she checked those things were legal to consume in the country.

One Nation MP Mark Latham was outraged by the alcohol limit and the intrusion of health measures into people’s legal rights, and Mark Latham tweeted, is there any end to the authoritarian tendencies of this NSW Liberal Government?

The Common Ground building, sponsored by Mission Australia, comprises 104 units, many of which provide homes for homeless people throughout the area.

The building was cast into an extreme lockdown almost two weeks ago after four cases were confirmed on the site.

Residents have received food from charities, but have only received a case of canned food lacking nutritional substance.

People identified the alcohol rations as a particular point of contention, with residents only permitted to have either six beers or pre-mixed drinks, one bottle of wine or one 375ml bottle of spirits.

These limitations are the same as those locked in hotel quarantine after arriving from overseas.

Ms Saffaa said that a member of their community had delivered multiple baskets of fresh food, booze, and cigarettes. However, the alcohol and some cigarette packs had been removed.

She said that the NSW’s police were systematically examining their parcels, post, and their belongings and they now have things missing.

Health officials say the measures are for the resident’s good and that of their neighbours, and a police spokesperson said that in all residential lockdown areas, NSW Police are there to ensure compliance with the Public Health Orders and support NSW Health if needed.

Is this Australia anymore? Because the country appears to have gone to the dogs, and now it seems to be showing the hallmarks of authoritarianism, and it’s not really the government’s business how much a person drinks or smokes. Next, the police will be checking groceries and removing anything they don’t approve of.

But what really makes my blood boil is when I hear the words, ‘You can get some of your freedoms back.’

We’re not slaves or prisoners, so no one has that power to take away a person’s freedoms, and anyone that follows just does that by consent, and just as quickly as it can be given, it can be taken away.

And Australians are now being treated like toddlers by tantrum-throwing politicians. Australia, the world’s biggest prison, the world’s biggest nanny state, or is it both?

First, they came for the socialists and people didn’t speak out because they were not socialists. Then they came for the trade unionists and the people didn’t speak out because they weren’t trade unionists, and then they came for the Jews and the people didn’t speak out because they were not a Jew, and then they came for me, but there was no one left to speak for me!

Countess who Raised A Stink

A countess has had to atone for the pong after her country estate sprayed human faeces onto the fields.

Locals said the smell was like rotting fish and ammonia and stopped them from sunbathing in their gardens.

Countess Bathurst, of grade I listed Cirencester Park in Gloucestershire, the second wife of the 9th Earl Bathurst, admitted on Facebook that they had to hold their hands up to this one. The farm had been spreading biosolids on the fields, and they had to put huge nutrients back into the ground and then plough it in once spread.

The Bathurst Estate said a contractor spread treated sewage from Wessex Water on the fields near Cirencester. It was banking on the wind to take the odour away, but the wind dropped.

Resident Caroline McShane said she grew up in and around farms but added the smell that she smelt when driving through Cirencester was enough to make you vomit, a mix of rotting fish and ammonia, not a natural farming smell.

Janey Hayes said that she was born and bred there, but that this was vile.

In a statement posted on Facebook, the estate said that the spreading was organised for when there was an easterly breeze which would have taken the smell away from the town, but frustratingly the wind dropped in the night and as such the odour hung in the valleys.

And it was said that they have a tractor and cultivator working to incorporate the biosolids as quickly as possible and this would lessen the smell.

The countess, Sara Chapman, was born in Marlborough, Wiltshire and married Earl Bathurst in 1996, later becoming the High Sheriff of Gloucestershire until 2017.

She said that she started smelling the stench during her evening dog walk on Sunday and that at first, she was convinced something big had died in the hedge before realising what it was when the odour followed her all the way home.

Writing on the local Facebook page, Cirencester, a Local Town for Local People, the Countess added that she apologised for the pong and that it was a necessary yearly evil and the wind direction rather let them down.

The Bathurt’s have run the Cirencester Park estate since 1695. Reportedly worth £45 million, the estate sprawls over 15,500 acres of countryside which claims to enclose the principal source of the River Thames.

Earl Bathurst, known as Lord Apsley until his father’s demise in 2011, is a keen conservationist who has campaigned to protect the countryside and historic buildings.

We used to wonder how it was possible to get Salmonella from lettuce or cucumber, and when there were outbreaks it was baffling to think that you could get this from consuming salad, but now we see it – we’re all eating our own faecal matter.

I suppose if you do live in the countryside, you’d get used to the aroma of manure on the fields. It’s part of village life, like clamorous church bells, tractors awakening you at 7 am, cockerels crowing at sunrise, and combine harvesters working late into the night.

Of course, the aroma of farm slurry is one thing, but this human faeces is repugnant, and not the typical country odour at all.

And it appears that poo is now called biosolids, how politically correct. But is this much poo about nothing? And I wonder what the vegans will think when they find out their vegetables have been grown in meat-eaters poo?

But the majority of farmland in the United Kingdom uses biosolids nows, it’s just that the public is too disinterested in farming to understand it, and only care about getting their next meat burger and bun in their stomach when they want it.

It Wasn’t Their Finest Hour

A charity named after Sir Winston Churchill has provoked anger by rebranding itself criticising his opinions on race with one furious official stating that it beggars belief that the man who saved his nation in our darkest hour finds himself cancelled in this way.

The Winston Churchill Memorial Trust has removed images of the wartime leader from its website and is changing its name to the Churchill Fellowship.

Trustees have agreed to change its name to the Churchill Fellowship and erase him from its website in a new woke storm that has sparked anger towards Julia Weston, the charity’s £100,000 a year chief executive whose face appears repeatedly across the website when Sir Winston doesn’t.

Loyal volunteers at the trust said it was rewriting history and pointed out the former prime minister had often been declared the greatest Briton of all time.

Julia Weston has been accused of pursuing a leftie woke agenda and announced the changes in an email to staff three weeks ago, claiming for some time they’ve known that their previous name was confusing as it didn’t reflect what they were about. She also said the charity would focus more on addressing inequality and protecting the environment.

An official statement on the trust’s website said that today there’s debate about aspects of Sir Winston’s life and that many of his opinions on race were broadly viewed as unacceptable, and the view that they share. In the statement it said that left-wing activists have gunned for Sir Winston Churchill for years, accusing him of racism, highlighting his links to Britain’s colonial past and even comparing him to Adolf Hitler, the monstrous authoritarian he helped defeat. His statue in Parliament Square was also defaced during London’s BLM demonstrations.

The charity, which finances academic research and whose chairman is Sir Winston’s grandson Jeremy Soames, was set up using essentially contributions after his demise in 1965, amid an emission of grief and financial donations from a grateful nation who wanted to remember Britain’s greatest ever prime minister.

But Labour candidate Benjamin Whittingham tweeted that Winston Churchill was a racist and white supremacist. And Sir Nicholas Soames, Winston Churchill’s grandson was outraged, and Benjamin Whittingham’s Conservative opponent Ben Wallace labelled the remarks ignorant and incredibly insulting.

The tweet was removed and the Labour Party said it didn’t represent the opinion of the Labour Party, and that he apologised unreservedly if it had caused any displeasure.

We need to remember our history, not rewrite it, and this is senseless and shocking because Sir Winston Churchill did so much for the British people and was a man of his time, and if it were not for past things, things would not be what they are today.

We need to respect our history, our beliefs, our heritage, our successes of the past, not slaughter them, and it seems that Britain has become utterly diabolical and insane, and if Winston Churchill hadn’t been in government during World War II, we either wouldn’t be here or you would be seeing jackboots up and down every high street in the United Kingdom, and our language would be German.

And if we open up a quarrel between past and present, we shall find that we’ve lost the future – Winston Churchill.

This is hypocritical and two-faced to drop Winston’s name but to keep the charity. If he was that bad, then close the charity down altogether, but they won’t do that because then they’d be left without well-paid jobs.

A Professor At Portland State University Resigns

A Portland State University professor has resigned in a scathing public letter in which he slammed the university for not allowing any kind of thinking that doesn’t suit its liberal agenda, calling it a social justice factory that drives intolerance of divergent beliefs.

Peter Boghossian was a full-time assistant professor of philosophy at Portland State University for ten years until his resignation letter was published on Wednesday.

He shared the letter with Bari Weiss, a former New York Times columnist who quit her role at the paper after claiming to encounter the same refusal to consider non-liberal views that Peter Boghossian describes at PSU.

Peter Boghossian said college staff were abdicating their truth-seeking mission and instead, driving intolerance of divergent beliefs by crushing any view that wasn’t liberal.

He wrote that students at Portland State were not being taught to think. Rather, they’re being taught to imitate the moral certainty of ideologies.

Peter Boghossian previously wrote several hoax papers and presented them to academic journals to prove that they would print anything that went along with their ideals, even if the theories in them were fraudulent.

They included papers on dog rape and an adaption to Hitler’s Mein Kampf. The left responded badly to it, saying he’d wasted the editor’s time.

Peter Boghossian says he was harassed on campus with swastikas scrawled on bathroom walls with his name next to them, solely because he’d challenged the university’s ideas.

He maintains that at one time flyers went around the campus depicting him with a Pinocchio nose, that he was spat on and that co-workers told students not to take his class.

In a statement to a newspaper outlet, a spokesperson for the university said that Portland State had always been and would continue to be a welcoming place for free speech and academic freedom.

The spokesperson said that they believed that those practices weren’t in conflict with their core institutional values of students success, racial inequality and impartiality, and proactive engagement with their community.

And it was said that as with all personnel matters, they have no comment on Dr Boghossian’s statement of resignation, and those who asked for proof to justify new institutional policies were accused of microaggressions and that professors were accused of bigotry for assigning canonical texts penned by philosophers who happened to have been European or male.

Sadly, this world is fading fast, and it’s becoming unrecognisable, and we’re in a particularly dangerous place in history, and I’m not sure we can come back from this, and we need more people like Peter Boghossian because at least he did speak up.

Unfortunately, most people have no concept of what’s happening, especially when they have their faces stuck in their cell phones.

Students are now taught to think, but not taught what to think, and the emerging generation are losing their crucial skills.

Having great conversations with someone of a different thought and ideas was fabulous, it opened your mind and you learnt to have a little patience, and sociology, philosophy and psychology classes were some of the best in regards to open debates, sadly, it seems that free thinking is no longer allowed.

Critical thinking is a necessary skill, sadly, the youth of today have probably never heard of the term, and Dr Boghossian might have quit, however, the dangerous ones stay.

I have every respect for this man, putting his principles first because he realises that, outside the woke education system, the vast preponderance of people are as much against wokism as he is, the trouble is, nobody wants to say they have an opinion on it.

An HR Advisor Was Dismissed For Complaining

An HR advisor who said he had been left astounded and disappointed after getting only three chicken nuggets for lunch has been awarded over £5,000 after he was dismissed for complaining.

Dissatisfied Steven Smith, 30, had been upset at the size of the £1.99 portion he was given in the office canteen of the company support firm where he worked.

An employment tribunal discovered that when he questioned why others were getting four or five nuggets, he said he felt offended when he was told he could get three more for an additional 99 pence.

Steven Smith advised the dinner lady he was not a child and if he’d wanted a happy meal he would have gone to McDonald’s before pushing the meal back towards her and leaving the canteen.

The woman said the incident left her belly churning and almost scared to come into work.

She complained about his behaviour and Steven Smith was later fired for gross misconduct after the company decided he acted violently.

But the tribunal decided that he was unfairly dismissed as the matter was not investigated properly by bosses and will now be awarded £5,181.60.

The Glasgow hearing was told Steven Smith started working for Teleperformance Limited, a company that offers support to clients such as energy companies, in the human resources department, based in Airdrie, Scotland in November 2016.

In September 2019, during a 12-hour shift, Steven Smith had gone to the canteen and had asked for chicken nuggets, chips, beans and cheese.

As he saw only three pieces of meat put in a carton for him, Steven Smith said, ‘is that it?’ and questioned why his co-workers were given four or five, the canteen worker told the panel.

The worker said Steven Smith said that he was not a child and that they could keep it and forcibly shoved the carton back before storming off, the tribunal heard.

The canteen worker said that she knew he was annoyed by his manner and by his tone and language change. He was not yelling but he was louder than he’d previously been.

She said that she could tell by his face and that her stomach was churning.

She then reported the incident as the kitchen staff found his conduct extreme.

Steven Smith was then brought in for a disciplinary meeting to discuss the allegations that he’d attacked a canteen assistant.

In the meeting, Steven Smith said that he just wanted to get food and get out to go back to his job, but due to the disillusion of what was presented before him in the white carton in which the food was presented and the utter shock of what he was presented with, he bestowed nothing more than disappointment at which the said canteen lady should have attempted to raise a complaint.

Almost all frontline customer service workers are faced with rude and irritable behaviour and occasionally lost tempers daily, regrettably, it goes with the job, and the canteen staff should have been able to de-escalate this awkward situation, but clearly, she was a very sensitive lady.

The woman said that this incident had left her stomach churning and almost too frightened to come into work, but then this is representative of modern-day society who are intimidated by their own shadow or spend their entire life complaining and being offended by anything and everything.

But whether the complaint was malicious or not, it was taken too far, although that doesn’t mean that her complaint wasn’t valid, and maybe he should have just been given a verbal warning instead, and not fired for it.

Are Taxpayers Going To Get Anything Back For The Extra £10 Billion Spent On The NHS?

British taxpayers were informed today that Boris Johnson’s manifesto busting £30 billion NHS handout will be eaten up permanently by the health service, with waiting lists and delays here to stay.

The Prime Minister promised the additional £10 billion a year to clear the enormous backlog that has accumulated during the pandemic, on top of the £5.4 billion cash boost announced for the NHS only a couple of days ago.

But the handout has been given to the NHS without any specific targets to meet, which has raised concerns the money will just be swallowed. NHS bosses have already complained the amount isn’t enough to clear the backlog.

Under the proposals, half of the £10 billion a year will be used on social care in 2023 before the entire amount is given to the care sector in 2025, and in theory, the NHS returns to its normal budget.

Critics have raised misgivings about the plan, claiming that if the NHS goes on a recruitment binge to fill staffing gaps then those salaries will need to be paid beyond 2025.

Announcing the tax hike yesterday, Boris Johnson said the money would go towards nine million more checks, scans and procedures by the end of 2025, as part of the biggest catch-up programme in the NHS’s history.

He vowed to increase NHS capacity for routine operations by 30 per cent compared to pre-pandemic levels, hire 50,000 more nurses and open new surgical hubs to deliver additional operations and other procedures.

According to the Resolution Foundation, by 2025, about 40 per cent of all day to day Government spending will go to the Department of Health and Social Care, which funds the health service.

The Conservative think tank, the Institute for Economic Affairs, warned the cash boost would almost entirely be used on hiring new staff and increasing salaries, which will be difficult to recover after 2025.

The left-wing Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) said the funding was nothing like enough to get through the backlog, with the NHS alone needing £15 billion per year to address the waiting list.

NHS England was already 38,952 nurses short at the end of June and it’s not clear how fast surgical hubs could take to set up how they will be staffed.

A record 5.5 million people were on the waiting list for routine procedures and treatments, such as hip and knee replacements, at the end of June and with data for July due out tomorrow, that figure was expected to further rise.

A condition of this additional funding should be a wage freeze for all management grades in the NHS for the next five years, or until the COVID backlog is cleared, which should give them some incentive to up their game.

We are now at the back of a lengthy line, especially the British elderly, with many being denied the opportunity to even get in the queue, and it seems you’re now too old to get sight-saving cataract surgeries, pain-relieving treatment, and other life-saving treatments as well.

And I doubt a penny of it will even reach the necessary departments. It might pay for managers, senior managers, or even more senior managers and the refurbishment of their offices, and I bet they pay top rates for everything that’s brought in and don’t forget all those millions of illegals that are here getting special treatment while the British people get held back.

GP practices in England get an average of £155 per patient.

£3,783.6 million in global sum payments;
£715.8 million for the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF);
£833.5 million in premises payments;
And £1,515.5 million for the ‘balance of PMS expenditure’.

And then you have council tax, which gets hiked up every year and that depends on if the bin men choose to collect your rubbish or not.

Get rid of foreign aid, and sort out illegal immigration, which would help to save billions.
