Thread | Cardiac Surgery at Morriston Hospital
at 16:03 17 Mar 2026
My elderly neighbour has a heart issue, he's due an operation and he's turned up twice recently to scheduled surgery only to been sent home because of emergency cases being rushed into theatre.
This happened again yesterday, his cardiologist said it would be best for him to turn up at A and E and to say he had chest pains, that way he would get treatment quickly.

Thread | Shortages, Rationing and the BBC
at 18:09 16 Mar 2026
So driving home this afternoon, I heard a series of interviews and presenter views on the possibility of shortages and rationing in the coming weeks on BBC Radio 4.
Of course the ' experts ' were ' ex-experts ' rolled out to promote the story.
Why create a story about shortages and rationing without the input of the people actually managing the resources? |

A one-party Marxist–Leninist socialist republic since 1961, obviously it's not their fault that the economy is bust. |

It's worth checking across a range of media sources and comparing the reporting. The bias in some outlets is obvious bearing in mind there are no foreign reporters in Iran and tight controls on Iranians speaking out. |

I think it's Trump being Trump, Starmer has pissed him off so he's asking Starmer to do something. I'm not sure what the plan is apart from destroying the leadership and armed forces in Iran. |

We have problems at both ends, Key and then Burgess were hopeless for the first goal. Burgess had to stand up and shepherd the ball towards the goal line, Key failed to get tight to the man closet to goal and wandered out to the wing where Ronald should have been heading.
Our attacking play lacks energy as ever. |

The policies that they have introduced put people off from starting a business, we are closing down businesses with a reduced chance of replacing them.
They don't seem to understand that the private sector pays for everything, they are going to find out soon! |

We are going to have to reverse the impact on small businesses sooner or later, it's economic suicide.
There's a whole load of ignorant preachers on the left who don't understand how the country's economy is structured. People running small businesses are not greedy bar stewards making millions. The average annual profit is £13,000 for a small business and Reeves has attacked them on four fronts simultaneously.
Torsten Bell, the class war donkey, wrote in the Resolution Foundation strategy for 2030 that the hospitality industry could withstand higher taxes as the middle classes would be happy to pay more.
You couldn't make this stuff up, it's so far wide of the mark. Our economy has stalled and it's now going to get worse with less flexibility for small businesses. It's just utter crap. [Post edited 13 Mar 18:11]

It's about thus time of the year that the results start to become even less predictable than usual. Teams at the top start to get nervous, teams at the bottom start to fight even harder and there's usually an opportunity for a decent side in the top half to push through to the play offs. Let's hope that team is us.
We've a week off before Fat Frank comes to town, let's hope we can out play a rather direct Wrexham. |

Well stuffing small businesses went well. Growth stalled, before the war effects kick in.
60 percent of private sector, the bit that pays for the public sector, employees work.in small businesses. The average small business makes a £13,000 profit.
So what does the idiot do, stuffs them with NI increased, minimum wage increases, rate increases and employer legislation at the same time
There is another U Turn required but it won't happen until it's too late. |

I'd leave at least one up, when balls are cleared after a corner, you have some chance of getting it back. |

Win this and we are two points off the play offs, in with a chance. Lose it and we are 8 points off the play offs with 8 games left.
This one is important because of the above. |

Thread | Mandelson's £75,000 Payoff
at 15:49 11 Mar 2026
So for gross misconduct, lying through your teeth when applying for a top diplomatic position you get £75,000.
It's been a while, but I've sacked a few people for lying on their job application form from jobs relying on being trustworthy.
Paying people for gross misconduct was never even considered.
One rule for them, one rule for us. [Post edited 11 Mar 15:50]
