I do it because I donโ€™t want my hands touching something unpleasant. So I do it for me rather than IPC. What irritates is we asked โ€œwhatโ€™s the evidence?โ€ and was ignored Instead, big personalities standing at lecterns said ITS FOR THE PLANET, caused a change in practice

I will say this every day if I have to. Boring robotic people are fine. We had โ€œcharismaโ€ (which in the UK is being a dick on a zip line and rugby tackling a small Japanese child) and look where we are.

Kudos to @SkyNews and @BethRigby . This is most revealing thing I've seen this election, epitomised by this question. "How can you convince me Sir Keir Starmer you're not robotic?" Gives robotic answer repeating CPS, N Ireland police background and coming into politics late

Childโ€™s nursery rhyme DVD: 5 little monkeys jumping on the bed 1 fell off & banged his dead. Went to the Dr and the Dr said, No more jumping on the bed. They repeat this 4 times. At which point does the doctor make a safeguarding referral? AND WHAT DOCTOR LOOKS AFTER MONKEYS?!

TL:DR, yes everyone can in theory do everything, but there needs to be proper contingency planning, and that requires appropriate training, breadth, logbook numbers and skills of the future generation of consultants
