Worth a read. Note real terms cuts to PH grant to councils. I'd also add that if the creation of SAs comes at the expense of further disempowering councils then this won't work in my view. Needs to work as an equal partnership with complementary roles, not being treated as some kind of hierarchy.

Death rates rise when NHS cuts back on nursing Using lower-paid workers to plug the gaps left by a failure to hire registered nurses damages safety, new research has shown

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: English hospitals that cut registered nurses saw more deaths while those hiring nurses saw more patients survive. Even when hospitals tried to fill gaps with non-nurses, deaths still went up. Major new study exposes dangerous NHS variation:

I called out a Reform MP’s racist comments in Parliament today.

I withdrew calling her a racist for her racist comments. But let’s be clear - racism has no place in Parliament or our politics.
