Where is the BBC’s fake news rapid rebuttal service?
The BBC’s new favourite radical, Corbyn supporting online rag [which according to the BBC is set to counter the right-wing Red Top attack dogs…like the Mirror?], The Canary, has been pumping out fake news…..
Jeremy Hunt should be ashamed of this despicable attack on NHS staff
On Friday 14 July, a court handed down a judgement summing up the state of our NHS. It ruled that NHS staff owed a private company £39,000. All because of austerity, and because Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt holds NHS workers in such contempt that he refuses to listen to their pleas for help.
Outrageous treatment
French private parking firm Indigo brought the case against the NHS workers, saying more than 70 staff at the University Hospital of Wales (UHW) had unpaid parking tickets. Cardiff and Vale University Health Board made the arrangements with Indigo in April 2016 which made parking fines legally enforceable.
Trouble is Labour are in charge of the Welsh NHS as Hunt points out…
Love the Canary. Blamed for attack on NHS staff by private parking contractor. It's in Wales – where Lab runs NHS. https://t.co/05BDb2gFuG

The Canary was forced to update its nonsense…
This article was updated ……at 5:53pm to elaborate on the Welsh government’s role in the second paragraph.
The BBC and its close friends…
I don’t see why NHS staff should get free parking.i don’t get it . I had to pay for parking when visiting my dad who the NHS was killing by neglect . These people – medics are not saints . My tip – never trust them – they avoid identifying themselves and when something goes wrong they cover it up like the professionals they are.,
What with our inability or unwillingness to train and retain new medical staff we shall be relying on just a few dubious recruits from foreign parts, who don’t speaka da Heengleesh, or uncommitted agency staff. Of course those that matter have private insurance. All good stuff.
gax
You’re right of course. I’m not sure that the training regime / consultant system is fit for purpose but the medics have so much power that they are difficult to challenge and have albeeb and emotion on their side.
Fedup ,
When my dad was dying we were turning up daily to visit . Later we found that we could have bought a block parking ticket , but they wouldn’t reimburse for the previous week . Their machine never offered this discount . But hey when you have a captive grieving relat… market and no competition why give anything away .
Nibor,
I’m sorry that you shared the same experience. It is sad to remember , as part of the passing of ones’ father – having to go down to the parking ticket machine every few hours to renew the ticket. I’m sure no politician would like to hear such detail – the Service bit in National Health can be a big false quite often. Privatise the bugger so those who input can get some return. No freeloaders .
