Keir Starmer

agreed - the agency costs seem ludicrous compared to just hiring more staff.
You end up with ludicrous instances such as what happened on my ward. Matron needed a staff nurse to cover a shift she was not rostered to work. She went home changed into a staff nurse uniform and did the shift herself through an agency. Whilst working the shift she was under the command of the ward sister in charge of the shift.
 
You’re a bit of a weirdo, aren’t ya.

Strange to think it, but to write it?
For clarity I will take you through my thought process.

1. See an alert that you have responded to a post of mine. Thought. Not that prick again.
2. On professing your love for Keith I resist the tempation to post something along the lines of 'tedious, monotonous Tory lite shill ... checks out'.
3. No need for that I think, we are all blues after all.
4. Try a light hearted approach, surely he will get the joke I thought.

Sadly not.

No, you thought ‘Not that prick again’ so thought you’d also be a ‘prick’, but then actually wrote it.

No issues with me, just seemed a little over the top for what was clearly an over-the-top, ironic post of mine.

Have a nice evening, Come on the Blues!
 
He may start to put people off he keeps up with this fantasy pledging.
He's trying to take the 'party of economic competence' from the Tories, and frankly this is probably the easiest time in the last 100 years to do it. Sadly he also seems to be preparing the ground for George Osbourne style austerity based Tory economics - relaunched as 'sound money'. I wouldn't hold too much store by his pledges anyway - look at the 10 he made to get the party leadership. He's actually probably told more lies and made more u-turns than anyone in public office over the last few years apart from Boris.

Saw a quote attributed to Chomsky about Starmer.

It read

" he is returning the Labour Party to a party that is reliantly obedient to power, that will be Thatcher lite in the style of Blair and that wont ruffle the feathers of either the US or anyone who is important in Britain"


and here is a quote from Tony Benn

" If the Labour Party could be bullied or persuaded to denounce its Marxists, the media having tasted blood would demand next it expelled all the Socialists and reunited with the SDP to form a harmless alternative to the conservatives. Which would then now and again be allowed to take office when the conservatives fell out of favour

Thus British capitalism, it is argued, would be made safe forever and socialism squeezed off the national agenda.

But if such a strategy were to succeed ...it would in fact profoundly endanger British society for it would open the danger of a swing to the far right as we have seen in Europe over the last 50 years."


Chomsky and Benn are/were right and Starmer is taking us there full steam ahead.
