NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.
Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

As a 3rd year midwifery student, there isn't a shortage of midwives or nurses coming through. However, many trusts have recruitment freezes on as they don't have the budget to employ them! There are 1000s of us that have been trained by the NHS, costing us £1000s then few jobs to walk into!

Once underway, this should improve standards across the social housing sector and reduce dangerous hazards in residents' homes.
