There needs to be a wing in a prison somewhere with space given over to the likes of Tommy Ten Names, Andrew Tate, Lawrence Fox, Dan Hodges and all of the other gobby Culture Warriors who blight our public discourse.
Staffed entirely by well paid migrants (if they want the job) who came by small boat and whoâve been granted asylum here.

Youâve got my vote for PM.
Waste of the talent of motivated migrants, having to deal with those excratĂŚ would be the biggest disincentive we could ever give them.

TfL for delays to passengers due to delayed completion of Tram Works and lack of communication!
Big diversion this morning- not that I give a shit- there were a fucktonne of confused passengers waiting for buses that could not access the bus station- let alone get them to their destination!
OopsâŚ

The government can have a low blow to the bollox for touting this around,
It has pledged that 92% of NHS patients will be waiting less than 18 weeks for treatment after referral to a consultant, by the end of this parliament.
Itâs the 8% that is the fucking problem, especially where Trusts are given metrics which then become targets for diagnosis to treatment. Guess where they then push the delays? Yep, it can take months to get a diagnosis and the Consultants know how to play this game. They delay even the most simple diagnosis, something as simple as abloody biopsy can take months, fuck the fact that your cancer gets worse in the meantime. Do these twats in London even have a clue about the reality on the ground, especially in smaller, more rural health trusts where large hospitals are but a distant dream. Just pure post code lottery at work.

This sounds similar to previous situations where they would end up pushing through as many minor operations like circumcisions, vasectomies, ingrowing toenails etc to buff the stats, at the expense of much more urgently needed but harder to get through at volume cases.
The old truth that if you set targets then people will work to them really does apply sometimes. Once Claire had seen the consultant a lot of things did move very quickly and we knew in a couple of weeks that sheâd need surgery. A date for the surgery was fixed, but there would be a few weeks wait when actually very little happened. The target from consultant to treatment was 2 months then. I had time to count the days. No doubt the trust admin had defined a month as 31 days, because some months are. Claire had the consultant appointment on Day 1 and the surgery on Day 62. Probably not a coincidence.
That said, they can be quick too. I found out last Friday that I needed a chest CT and my GP agreed it should be done urgently. The Urgent designation slipped down some administrative crack though and I spent Monday pm to Wednesday am correcting that. But once it was corrected I got the CT the same day and the radiologistâs report back to the GP (target is inside 4 weeks) in 19 hours ! The GP phoned me and, before he told me the result, he said he thought the report time might be a record for the NHS (actually I know it isnât - theyâre routinely quicker than that for inpatients). The good news was my lungs are All Clear, which will cheer my Easter weekend up.
