Despite El Govs best efforts those opinion polls ain't budging.

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi

The're not going to change by much.

Must really hurt the LibDems that even when another party is so unpopular, they still cant get a vote ...

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi

Suspect there’s a generation that’ll never forgive them for 2010.

Going into coalition with the Conservatives.

Essentially if you want to vote the Tories out voting Lib Dem is a roll of the dice you don’t need to take.

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi

Former Tory deputy chairman Lee Anderson has been suspended from the party after "refusing to apologise" for comments aimed at Sadiq Khan.

The Conservative Ashfield MP told GB News on Friday "Islamists" had "got control" of the mayor of London.

Responding on Saturday, Mr Khan described the remarks as "pouring fuel on the fire of anti-Muslim hatred".

Odds on that he join Reform UK now.

Either way his days are an MP are numbered. I think he'd make a great Poundland employee. 'Lee (happy to help as long as you look like me)'. He'll have to do it or they'll stop his benefits...

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi

Watching the **** party implode more and more each week really warms the cockles. Can't wait for the whole shower of shit to get voted out by a massive landslide :D

Most deserved boot out of power ever...

Ministers have dramatically stalled plans to double the number of doctors being trained in England by 2031 in a move that has caused dismay across the NHS, as well in medical schools and universities, the Observer can reveal.

In June last year, ministers backed a long-term plan to expand the NHS workforce and pledged, amid great fanfare, to “double medical school places by 2031 from 7,500 today to 15,000, with more medical school places in areas with the greatest shortages to level up training and help address geographic inequity”. Labour is also committed to raising the number of doctors to 15,000 by 2031.

But a leaked letter written jointly by health minister Andrew Stephenson and the minister for skills, apprenticeships and higher education, Robert Halfon, to the independent regulator the Office for Students, says they will fund only 350 additional places for trainee doctors in 2025-26. This is less than a quarter of the annual number widely anticipated and there is no guarantee that even that level of resource will be repeated.

The heads of universities and medical schools last night expressed extreme disappointment and said the numbers fell far short of what they had been led to expect, and were now able to accommodate. In Yorkshire and the north-east of England, where shortages are among the most serious, there will be just 52 extra places for medical schools to bid for across the entire region.

Quote:

A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said: “We are fully committed and remain on track to deliver our pledges set out in the long-term workforce plan, including the doubling of medical school places in England to 15,000 by 2031.

“We have already expanded the number of medical school places in England to 7,500 per year – a 25% increase – since 2018 that has delivered five new medical schools. We have accelerated this expansion by allocating 205 additional places for 2024/25, a year ahead of target. We are increasing capacity exponentially until 2031 rather than dividing the additional 7,500 evenly over the years.”

"Exponentially"…

In other words, back-loading the number of doctors, so the increase in trained doctors will happen later, not sooner…

For example, a 7,500 increase split evenly over the eight years would mean around 940 new trainee doctors starting every years, with them being qualified as a GP in 10 years, and a qualified surgeon in 14 years.

A 7,500 increase split exponentially (if they mean doubling in size each year), it would mean

Year 1 30
Year 2 60
Year 3 120
Year 4 240
Year 5 480
Year 6 960
Year 7 1920
Year 8 3840

Under the first plan we would have over 5,640 extra qualified GPs by 2039 (year 6 plus 10 years)

Under the second plan, we would have extra 1,890 qualified GPs by by 2039…

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi

I so loathe this government.They continually lie through their teeth with their fingers crossed behind their backs.You cannot believe a word they utter and I'm always expecting the shoe to drop every time they make a promise/announcement.
I find them completely untrustworthy.

The most deserved vote out (in my lifetime anyway) was Labour in 1979.

This lot, probably 2nd, I cant think of any other instances.
An example of how to take a commanding lead, and totally self destruct.
