Come along. The festivals are great, despite... well... me.

Today we remember the six million Jewish people murdered in the Holocaust.
I make a promise to never forget what happened and ensure to honour the memories of the victims.
For a better future

The additional 5000 permanent hospital beds announced last year seem to be a manipulation of the figures

It was announced in January 2023 that there would be 5000 more beds available for Winter 2023

That these beds would be permanent and additional

The numbers below tell the reality

As we enter another ‘Winter crisis’ there are no seasons in NHS anymore

It’s worth reflecting on the plans the last Govt had, 5000 more beds

The target wasn’t hit despite NHSE stating publicly it was & July stating they were permanently added

The numbers don’t stack up

Soooo, yes we recognise there is a crisis, and we plan to get to it in 2028?

Investing in social care now would relieve pressure on the NHS, and lessening the need to outsource to private providers.
