I suspect that's why he's there. Interim leaders with no interest in the permanent role often do a better job than those simultaneously trying to secure the role longer-term. He can keep things going, safe in the knowledge his liberation is on the horizon. (Assuming they can appoint of course).

The Coalition Government resisted its inclusion in the legal definition of 'wellbeing': hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2013-1... but 'spiritual wellbeing' is an emotive topic again in light of the assisted dying debate. Interesting to see if there will be a new push to redraft the Care Act definition.

If you have poor or fluctuating mobility then the symptoms of norovirus are much more difficult to manage than something ENT/respiratory. It's also more disruptive to medication regimes. (Plus it's a laundry stress dream with small children, but most small children + illness combos are pretty gross)

That sounds like an awful and protracted experience. I hope the surgery - delayed as it was - made a difference.

That sounds awful. I hope she's fairly compensated.

This is also one of the reasons I left, but more than this - I found the interspersing of suffering and dying children with porn to be especially distasteful.

Same. And even with the box ticked to block sensitive content the algorithm kept spamming me with horrific videos. This seems to be a much nicer place!
