I'm not always ready to listen.
I may not be talking on phone,
I may not be writing or messaging,
I might look as though I'm ready..
But
I could be day-dreaming
I could be trying to recapture a word or memory
I might be savouring the silence
If I try to listen but fail, it's not personal.

It is not US President Donald Trump who represents the biggest political threat to the BBC, but a leaked 8,000-word letter of complaint to the broadcaster's board motivated by "despair at inaction".

The problem isn't 'lack of beds' it's lack of staff.

They have to be aware of the numbers set for surgery.
Or,
Is the problem a lack of staff & is this problem driven by casualisation of workforce?
