What he really needs are proper heart tests on the mainland. But he’s also exhausted and it would be 8 hour round trip. Have to balance up the best treatment plan for him. For now it’s a rest for 24 hours. Maybe I’m Foolish but I’m hopeful 🙏🤞🥰 4/

The argument that’s often made for why we need an alternative model to the NHS or radical reform is that the NHS is unsustainable. The latest to make the argument is Sajid Javid. But *is* the NHS unsustainable? A Friday🧵
