One important lesson I learned early in my use of social media is there is nothing to be gained by arguing with people who are abusive, idiots or very ill-informed. Move on past them and free up your time for more useful interactions that benefit you and your audience.

The reason you can’t get an appointment or procedure or an ambulance at the right time is because the NHS is underfunded. That’s it. Everything else is just distraction.
