UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

A lack of training opportunities isn't the issue. They need to fix the NHS and pay the staff properly for their effort.
Exactly this. Doctors and nurses need to be paid properly and have their wages rise with inflation.
Triple lock for state pension; inflationary pay cuts for NHS.
Yup. The opportunities to enter the service are there.
It's retention that's dismal. They learn the skills then take them elsewhere.
And I honestly don't blame them one bit. It's very, very taxing and important work that isn't recompensed properly.
There seems to be a much bigger retention issue across all sectors. There seems to be a general disinterest in the value of experience in favour of paying a relatively small number of executives/upper management high wages while the majority of the workforce are paid pitiful low wages.
