Promised: £350 million a week Delivered: £3.50 a week That's quite some over-promising.

A reminder about our industrial action in NI- #suspendednotended
Gutting for nurses to hear this morning that once again the DoH has refused to pay nurses their lost earnings at a time when nurses are delivering the vaccine whilst they continue to carry out their day and daily care for patients. Words come easy but nurses dont see much action

Farewell Annie, the heart of our office was Cafe 17.
It’s a sad day for @RCN_NI We are saying goodbye to Annie our lovely chef after 11 years. She has looked after and spoiled staff, members and guests .She made such a fuss of us all and all we can do is give her a socially distanced goodbye 😢. Good luck Annie

Be careful, Prime Minister - thousands of nurses returned to work during the pandemic, out of retirement or other careers. At least half say they’ll leave again after. If you want them to stay, pay them fairly - open immediate discussions on a 12.5% pay rise #FairPayForNursing
.@BorisJohnson 'The bedrock of national productivity is having great public services....that means 1st a great health service so it's right that this govt is pressing on with its plan for 48 new hospitals 🏥 & I'm proud that we've already recruited 14,000 more nurses' 👩‍⚕️ #CPC20
