Watch and listen to a former Regional director of Public Health for North-West England for 13 years in my post above.Brilliant.... straight out the “I’m a doctor and listen to this” posts that go round on Facebook about falsifying death certificate with Covid 19.
Awful form from the guardian (not surprising though) where as many doctors and nurses (names given) happily accept the applause each week. Along with key workers who it’s for too. Pathetic from the guardian
Almost, but not quite.It’s all become a bit ‘let’s get on facebook and twitter’
No doubt, at the start there was a huge emotional pull on this.
It’s fair to ask - so what.
A round of applause is lovely but if we continue to reduce the wages of nurses (which has happened over the last 10 yrs if you take account of inflation) it’s just total hypocrisy.
But, we know many are happy with that.
Give them applause, cleanse the conscience.
Your not really adding anything Cooper. You don't trust the source, yep, we get it. Feel free to add to the debate as opposed to criticise.As for ‘pathetic from The Guardian’. Nothing better than reading just what you are happy with. Makes you so much more rounded
Probably the most hypocritical post ever made on this forum. It’s literally full of people with the same views reading the exact same information. Talk about reading what your happy with!!
Laughing - What doctor? The mysterious no named one? Ok then I believe all the ones on social media that come up with conspiracy theories. Let’s twist it then. It’s a no named doctor saying he loves the applause each week and thinks the government are doing a great job in The Mail. You’d be all over carrying “Dominic Cummins!!!” What your doing is taking information that suits your agenda but would dismiss it if other way round in exact same scenario.
Whetever happened to them 200 twitter accounts thst apparently the government had set up? Another bogus story from a anti government source which turned out to be lies. Probably like this.
And what am I??? A member of public who exercised his right to vote in an election? A father? A civil servant who has worked every day since this began? Or someone who should be publicly flogged for exercising my right to vote. Instead of criticising you should be asking why I voted thst way in the 1st place but most don’t seem to look that far!
I read this article this morning, and it is difficult not to agree with the man.
He argues that the applause is essentially meaningless, doesn't help with clinical direction, nor the poor salaries at the grass roots of the NHS, nor the vilification of BAME staff.
