He was already a father to countless children he refuses to have anything to do with.

You've seen all his court documents? I'm impressed.

BREAKING: He remains conscious. He was moved to the ICU in case a ventilator is needed. - Fox News Live
So he's taking up an ICU bed for someone that might actually need it RIGHT NOW? Fuck everyone else, huh?

Them saying he's not on a ventilator and he's conscious/talking does not mean he's not on a ventilator. As soon as it was announced he was in hospital last night at 9pm most of knew it was far more serious than they were letting on.

UK ICUs aren't overloaded (yet) and he was moved there because they suspect he will need a ventilator tonight. He's old, fat, and smokes. He's fucked in a bad way.

It's very likely he will need to be on one, so rather than having to rush him to one they can have him by it ready for when it inevitably becomes necessary.

As do I, but the Onion's Tweet wasn't actively wishing him harm either. Just poking at his efforts to dismantle the organisation we work for and that defunding it isn't a solution to the struggles the NHS faced beforehand.

The one upside to this shit (and I know it isn't an upside really) is that any future attempt to sell, cut,or fuck the NHS won't stand.

Perhaps, like you, I've had colleagues die over the last 11 years and never replaced on the front line; for 'cost improvement savings'. Just an empty chair, for some poor fucker, that none of us will sit in (literally).

I could die at my job, after 23 years service, and within 2 weeks a manager probably wouldn't be able to recall my surame. I get it.

I'd like to be that positive, but I feel they will just use the "clap for the NHS" to show that they really do care for us while continuing the same practises they have before hand all while making people think "Oh the Tories really DO care about the NHS!" all the while we are left underfunded, understaffed and without equipment. Already the workload is wearing on me and many other nurses, so hopefully all these new hospitals they are building/converting help and leave a lasting impact that we need this sort of thing in general and shouldn't constantly be on "Barely coping" threadline that just general flu or Norovirus bends us over on.

People can say they want to support it, and clap for us, but if we go back to mild indifference afterwards then just fucked again next time.

Either way, despite any negative stuff I've said about Boris' handling of this in the past, I don't want him (or anyone I disagree with) to die from this. He may be a shit stain whose own idiocy had him catch it to begin with, but doesn't mean he needs to die.

Head of state is a PR thing, it doesn't necessarily give you power of laws. The Queen is a Head of State, if you asked for one person that is representative of the United Kingdom it's the Queen, not Boris. But she doesn't really make laws.

Yes.

In theory she could quash them, but never does. Because she lives in Castle Cainhurst and Bloodborne players have to feed her bags of blood.

Obviously.

I thought he had posted a video the other day saying he was feeling better. Scary how this virus can give you a false sense of security then come back to punch you in the throat the next day.

Even if he was dying he would publically say he was okay and feeling better

No one wants their leader to say they are weak and suffering.

I feel for the guy

Maybe in the US but in the UK at the moment 15.6% of ICU cases are deaths.

The one upside to this s*** (and I know it isn't an upside really) is that any future attempt to sell, cut,or f*** the NHS won't stand.

The NHS as a brand won't change for the reasons you suggested but we're going to see discussions around funding.

I imagine there will be a big point about how much money we've spent when this is said and done. I don't know what will happen but during the daily briefings they've been shilling for Private Hospitals and Pharmaceutical companies a few times and the NHS has effectively paid to use the majority of Private Hospitals to help with Covid-19.

NOTE: This already happens on a smaller scale. It's not unusual to be referred to a private hospital from the NHS so there exists a transfer of money from the NHS to the Private system already. Expect to see more contracts between the NHS and Private Sector after this. I can just see that link growing after this. The question is how are they going to fund this? Probably more taxes. I can't see them bringing in insurance. It's too much of a dirty word but as long as the money makes its way to the private sector does it matter how? If they raise taxes we still end up paying for it and they still make their money.
