    I do think the NHS will improve, but also by not just chucking money at it. Broken clocks are right twice a day, and farage and others mentioning where the money is going is a real concern. It needs better financial management too, to make it better

    Wouldn’t know if it is the Trust or the actual Hospital making the decision.

    No, you wouldn’t. You really think the Tories were just about to give you a massive pay rise? Were you having to pay for parking before 2010 by the way?

    No. I never enquired why he didn't vote. It's clear from Steve's other posts.
    You've added your opinion onto my reply to steve.
    I suppose what I ought to said to steve originally is. If the waiter asks you what you want? And don't specify, You can't complain if you don't like what you receive.

    So this hypothetical. Let's say that you're forced to attend this restaurant, you look at the menu, and there is absolutely nothing on there that you would like to eat. So you just sit there and watch the others eating their meals, the one one the blue plate is sour and you can see people wincing as they eat it. The people eating from the red plate happily gorge on it, despite it plainly being cheap swill, they know they don't like it really, but they've become set in their ways and have eaten from the red plate time and time again, so they don't want to look silly for turning their nose up at it now.

    He just sits there wondering why they don't just eat somewhere else.

    I might be a bit thick but why is it labours fault that for the last 14 years the Tories who YOU voted in haven't given you free parking?

    It's more like he gets a choice over what meal he gets delivered to eat every day for the next 5 years. He doesn't choose and then just complains how awful the red meal that he ends up getting is and how much better the blue one would have been.

    Where else? The cafe down the road that doesn't let foreigners in?
    I'd rather eat the cheap swill than sit in a racist cafe

    What a strange response that is! Who mentioned racism? What an odd thing to say. Did someone hurt you? Is this why you lash out so recklessly on the internet? You're in love with Shamima Begum?

    Capitalism in action mate. Hospital charge staff to park so staff flood local streets, locals go apesh*t cos ya can't park when ya get home from work so council offer free permit scheme for residents BUT just as scheme starts council announce they need to charge to cover cost then increase cost 100% year on year...meanwhile staff are forced further from place of work but that's ok cos parking company and council are coining it....
