#rishisunakpm — Public Fediverse posts

Yesterday afternoon #RishiSunakPM said that as part of the 'additional funding' for the #NHS pay settlement there will be some 'reprioritisation, as there always is'; so that' not fully funded then - at least some of the cash will be redirected from the current budget.... so the row back didn't take long did it now (hours rather than days)

h/t @fkamiah17 for the heads up on that!

So #RishiSunakPM, with #juniordoctors now voting to join the #NHSstrikes, how that game of hardball going for you?

So #SupportTheStrikes however inconvenient it is for you

#SupportOurNurses, because clapping (in the end) was a distraction...

The NHS is not safe in #Tory hands... and this is what the strikes are really about!

Looks like #Centrica (owner of #BritishGass) will confirm massively increased profits from last year... given these stem from the rise in wholesale price(s) not anything Centrica has actually done (other than control gas supply), this should be the rightful target for #windfalltaxes... these are essentially monopoly 'super profits'!

However, I won't be holding my breath! #RishiSunakPM is in their pocket!

It seems #RishiSunakPM finally may(!!) be considering back-dated pay rises for #strikers in the #publicsector...

but as before this is so much hogwash if #JeremyHunt continues to hold the line that all pyrites must come from within existing/settled budgets... if so, this is just another run at defunding public services (most crucially the #NHS) & will merely shift the problem from one aspect of the (various) public services' organisation to another...

Casting around for distractions from what is going on, on the ground, #RishiSunakPM tells us he will do 'whatever it takes' to deal with balloon incursions into our airspace... its a pity his fortitude doesn't stretch to the #NHSstrikes... but the #Tories are past masters at the politics of distraction, so we shouldn't be surprised Rishi has grabbed the balloon with both hands

I see #RishiSunakPM thinks (after his recent remarks on #strikes & #lowpay) that #Garyneville should stick to talking about football... well, next time Sunak says something about popular culture in an attempt to portray himself as a 'man of the people' he should be told to stick to #politics!
