Do you support the RMT?

So the Govt are going to further anger nurses at a time when the NHS has problems recruiting and retaining them.

Maybe it's time to start sharing some of the additional VAT monies from inflated costs of food and utility bills that they have been stashing away.

No VAT on food (mostly).
 
Allegedly a leaked document form the treasury have sent out telling Network Rail to cut infrastructure to "bare minimum" and a proposal to put fares up to the rate of inflation.

The doc also includes a campaign to put rail freight back on roads. TOC's to remove trains and cut services rather than replace them. Northern towns and cities to be affected the most by the cut.

It will be promoted as a "green policy" *shrugs*

Transport for the North has a policy of getting more freight on rail.

Getting freight on the roads releases capacity for passenger trains - so kills the capacity argument for HS2....

That's the only logic I could see for claiming this is a "green" policy.

Levelling up is dead anyway.

It was a bullshit buzzword.

Failing Grayling try to sell the "Midlands Machine that will power the Northern Powerhouse" to a meeting at my workplace and half the people in their (including me) walked out.

It was the "Midlands Engine". It worked to help Johnson persuade the red wall that the Tories were serious about "levelling up" but Tory Tees Valley mayor Houchen knows it's a con, hence his calling Transport for the North a "talking shop" which he doesn't attend.

Nurses' strike: Health Secretary Steve Barclay says he is 'left with no choice but to proceed with legal action'

Steve Barclay says the government "cannot standby" and let an "unlawful" strike to go ahead but the Royal College of Nursing says it is "wrong and indefensible" to take legal action against them.

I assume it comes down to what time you say is the limit, i would say midnight at the end of the day so think the nurses will win , i think
 
Just remember whenever you face a vote - this bunch of cunts took us from this level or respect to denying NHS workers a decent pay increase - indeed the chance to even negotiate - kill the Tory scum chop them off at the knees they deserve nothing more
