The great British public don't help either as statistics show that many GP & A&E visits are unnecessary because a simple visit to the chemist was all that was required. One estimate is that 40% of A&E visits are preventable.

More resources have also been put into training but these individuals are then finding there are no places. Not that the places don't exist on paper but they are unfunded to pay for outsourced activities!

The way they are treated by employers, punters & wider media, will directly influence how much more we see.

Councillors pictured are Clirs Paul Thomas, Oliver Bradshaw, Bill Barrett and Maxine Fothergill
"We've undeclared the climate crisis, which will free us up further down the line to make many more savings when we start to unpick all the net zero targets that have been sort of baked into the constitution. Then we can save a lot more money in the long term." ClIr Kemkaran, leader of KCC, last month called for the return of international railways to the county (Photo: Gareth Fuller/PA) CIr Kemkaran said she had appointed an internal Department of Local Government Efficiency or "Doge team" which was scrutinising each Cabinet member on what savings could be made.
Reform has โundeclared the climate crisisโ to try to find savings.
Wow. If only weโd known it was that easy. Donโt like it? Just โundeclareโ it. Simples.
The thought of clowns like this in government is just beyond anything remotely sane. Letโs not go there.
