Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

cynic - beats me why you even bother to converse with this moron! Obvious he stands in front of the mirror in his red jim jams every night chanting "Why Am I So Great, Oh Why Am I So Great" :O)

he isn't a moron - MrT perhaps carries that crown - but he is very tiresome at (most?) times ..... I respond to only a fraction of his nonsenses, but when it comes to attacking the efficiencies of GPs when I have a firsthand source to consult, he warrants a good kicking

Cynic,

I probably know a lot more about the NHS than will ever know, but with your rate of opinion formation and distribution, you would appear to be deluded into thinking yourself as the fount of all knowledge.

Pity you haven't notice that you are wearing wet trousers.

You appear as wet and disconnected as you mate Cameron poncing around the world trying to act like a second hand Blair. You three should get on well together.

I suppose you could get a job as a "rent a mouth".

Wales have just scored a push over try.

Somehow it reminds me of you.

go and throw your sulks elsewhere fred ..... you're no better than a charlatan when it comes to the medical profession

your political views are your own affair, only touching on my life in the vaguest of ways ...... as you won't vote, they really don't count for anything anyway let alone carry any weight

Ps.

My brother was a doctor, many of my in-laws were doctors and quite a lot of my friends were practicing doctors. (Hospital and General Practice.)

all in the past, as are you ..... i'm talking about TODAY's front line reporting from someone who actually operates there ...... you don't!

fred

I also have some knowledge by association regarding GPs and doctors in general. The experiences recounted to me match cynic's view pretty accurately.

I don't recognise your version of life as a doctor compared to what I am told by friends doing the job at the moment.

Stop digging, you are appearing more and more idiotic.

Or go to your leader, who has a u-turn up every sleeve for use after his ill-thought out pronouncements for advice of what to write next.

Mind, I can read you posting and your opinions with a sense of amusement.

But do make them shorter.

Hays,

You are probably believing the propaganda of some, as it is to your taste and suits the position you wish to hold.

============


There are many well run and organised practices in primary and secondary health systems, but there is also a lot of part-timers who are being paid full-timers salaries.

There are a also a lot of inefficiencies in the health service, some of which suit some of the practitioners. Also, there is still an lot of professional protectionism practised within the health service. The latter is getting less, but it is still there.

Why does Fred waste his time on here with all his vast knowledge of running the country , why doesn't he ran for Parliament as an Independent.

Independent Gobshite Party! :O)

Chris

Been playing a lot of chess on that site, 30 minute games and a few at 10 minutes , been having trouble with the game being disconnected sometimes and if its my turn to move i run out of time and even if its my opponets turn to move it says i lost on time. Funny but i seem to win a lot of my 10 minute games , a thought that was a young persons advantage playing quick.

ald

I'm not good enough to play a 10 minute game, doubt I ever will be :O)
3 day suits me at mo, guy I have been playing for a while now makes one move a day., another guy makes ten, doesn't really matter whatever you decide.,

It is OK though overseas investment into Britain will save it.

Hays Hays Hays

Looks like a new all time low for fat Dave.............

UK - Opinium/Observer poll: CON 28%, LAB 37%, LDEM 9%, UKIP 16%


UKIP picking up votes.

Update - Labour lead at 6
by YouGov in Politics
Sun November 17, 2013 6 a.m. GMT

Latest YouGov / Sunday Times results 15th November - Con 33%, Lab 39%, LD 10%, UKIP 12%;

With the dim/libs only getting 9/10% in the polls....what will that do to their seat numbers?

If it stayed like that then their numbers would fall a bit. The Libs are lucky that they have quite a few safe seats. The percentage figure is across the country. That is not so important as there are seats that they would never take. What really counts is the percentage level in the seats that they hold. The very same demographics that help the Libs are the same as stop UKIP from getting seats.

i am much amused
fred's superior intellect thinks that no one will have noticed that he has shifted his line of attack on GPs

it started out at how inefficient and lazy GPs were

because that line of attack was fairly well demolished by today's facts, it has now rather shifted to how GPs are overpaid - but again tempered as a safeguard to "oh well, it's actually some part-time staff who get full-time salaries, and perhaps some practices aren't as efficient as they might be" ..... which either cannot be substantiated, or these part-timers have specific skills or somesuch that makes them worth extra pay

as usual, full-o'-shit-fred rants rubbish from his soapbox .... no doubt he'll now try to divert that by casting silly aspersions at me (well, that is his usual and predictable line)
