Rise in hospital ‘corridor care’ is national emergency, union warns

Overcrowding is forcing hospitals to treat so many patients in corridors and storerooms that it constitutes a “national emergency”, the UK’s nursing union has said.

The growing and widespread practice is endangering patients’ safety by leaving them without oxygen or easily able to attract staff’s attention, the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) warned.

“Corridor care” also deprives patients of their dignity because they have to undergo intimate examinations in view of others and do not have easy access to a toilet, it added.

Hospitals become so stretched that some patients have died while being looked after in what the #RCN said were “inappropriate areas”, which can also include car parks and fracture rooms.

Save NHS dentistry and make it fit for the 21st century

I’m Tom Thayer, a hospital consultant. I treat patients left with horrifying mouth injuries after trying to pull out their own teeth out.
Everyone who needs an NHS dentist should be able to get an appointment.

But overstretched and underfunded, there are now fewer and fewer #NHS #dentists available. A recent survey found nine out of ten practices are no longer taking on new NHS patients

UK: Crumbling schools plagued by leaks and cold, BBC finds

Schools in urgent need of repair have told Panorama they are struggling to keep children warm in buildings that are "not fit for purpose".

At one primary in Devon, temperatures are so low that children keep gloves and coats on during some lessons.

The head teacher says despite parts of the school being seemingly impossible to heat, he has been told it does not qualify for extra money for repairs.

Stop the UK Government from spying on all of our bank accounts

Petition

The Government is sneaking in new powers to spy on all of our bank accounts on the premise of dealing with welfare fraud and error.

It will force banks to flag people who meet secret criteria to the government.

Everyone wants fraudulent uses of public money to be dealt with, and the government already has strong powers to check the bank statements of suspects.

But this is a major expansion of government power that takes away our financial privacy like never before and does away with the presumption of innocence - the democratic principle that you shouldn't be spied on unless police suspect you of wrongdoing.

Call an immediate general election

The Prime Minister should call an immediate general election to allow the British public to have their say on how we are governed, we should not be made to wait until January 2025
More details

Consistent opinion polling has shown the British public have lost confidence in the current government. The NHS is in crisis, the asylum system is broken, there are delays at the ports, and institutions are failing. The British people should be given a say on what to do next.

Barclays cut my expat mother off from vital care home funds

Another Brexit Failure ...

#Barclays has form when it comes to cutting elderly widows off from their money. The reasons for the closures differ, but the underlying incompetence and insouciance are disturbingly similar.

Your mother fell victim to EU rules which, post-Brexit, require UK banks to apply for separate licences to serve customers in each EU country.

To save themselves the hassle and cost, many banks simply closed expats’ accounts. Barclays shut the last of its in December.

There is a set process for claiming the balance from a defunct account, but a succession of errors stymied your efforts. First you were told that the account was dormant, rather than closed. This meant you were directed to follow the wrong process, which got you nowhere.

Next, branch staff failed to acknowledge your LPA documents, which meant your mother was put through the stress of signing a letter of authority.

Barclays only admitted these blunders after I got in touch and it took a media prod to get it to release the funds

Take our pledge and commit to voting to the best place party to beat the government in your constituency at the next general election. Whatever your politics, it's time to let someone else have a go at running the country.

Boris Johnson recovering after minor nose operation, Downing Street says | Politics News | Sky News

Boris Johnson is resting after undergoing a minor operation during which he was briefly under general anesthesia, Downing Street has said.

He’s had his nose shortened by about a foot and a half. He needed the anaesthesia because those wood saws can really sting.
