Increasingly frustrated at the inability of the NHS - at alll levels - to grasp you need a whole pipeline workforce planning approach, so if you want more B6 or advanced physios you also need to expand the number of B5 NQ you recruit !

The idea of “imported” violence against women and girls is a deeply comforting fiction - one that allows people to avoid looking at where it actually happens: within our homes and behind closed doors.
The Violence Isn’t Imported. It’s Domestic.
Kemi Badenoch’s attempt to blame violence against women on migrants doesn’t just collapse under scrutiny - it actively distracts us from where the harm really happens, and who is actually responsible.

Shocked that a supposedly mainstream party leader is resorting to false extremist claims about the main threats women face. All violence against women. And girls is wrong but most sexual violence is from partners or colleagues and not random foreign strangers.
