Good morning.

My house move is definitely on for next Wednesday, we even managed to exchange contracts yesterday, a whole week before completion, which apparently is a luxury.

@refit, presumably you don't drive? I imagine they'd have stopped you if you did.

They can announce it and plan for it but I can't see it being practical, bureaucratic nightmare.

AV isn't PR but it would guarantee Reform lost.

They're already doing it, pilots only so far, with results to be seen -- in Yorkshire, Cumbria, NE, People are offered cardiac rehab, physio, job-coaching and then analysis of results to measure success . Plans to expand nationwide, no plans SO FAR to penalise trusts which don't meet c.1% back to work target for the economically inactive . £45mn already spent, £25mn to be added to roll out nationwide .

Intriguingly, there's a FT article earlier in the month entitled '' The Tyranny Of Targets" , and according to the unlamented Jeremy Hunt this one is " yet another example of a worthy goal which will end up being another target that makes the NHS more micromanaged and less effective”.

LOL :-)

In addition , What on earth happens to the very many people whose quality of life is not measurable by the Palantir-enabled bean-counters, who I assume will be left by the wayside as treatment ONLY goes to the frontline troops in the economic war for national survival ?

Wiki -- " Bypass Paywalls Clean was published on the Add-ons for Firefox website until a DMCA takedown notice was leveled against the Firefox extension in February 2023. "

I still have the Chrome habit but downloaded this for Firefox ages ago .

I expect those here know more about it all than me !

This is almost FUNNY --

Thinking of all the many Brit and French jews who are so terrified that they are thinking of jumping ship , people who actually live in Israel are making space for you !

Imagine winning a gold medal for your country and being 'treated' to, at best, luke warm McDonald's and bottled tap water. Meanwhile the women's team are going to party with Flava Flav.
