    I know nothing about this situation, or Dickie's financial problems, but he does employ an awful lot of people. I wouldn't wish unemployment on anyone.

    Branson has always put profit before people, if I recall correctly he even sued the NHS for millions and won?

    FFS, not another example of NHS incompetence, I think we need to talk about our NHS when this is all over, those incredible people working on the front line deserve better. Lions led by donkeys springs to mind.

    sinkov --your last statement, originally from WWI, still holds true today in many parts of the NHS. My son is a senior paramedic and works on the HEMS helicopter and back up team as well as being a member of the motor cycle unit. They have stopped the MCU operating and he has had to go back on a wagon on his normal duty days. He has been critical ot the management for several years and, if you know the circumstances, you can see why. The latest situation has led to many senior paramedics being treated like idiots by the management who are in danger of disappearing up their own arses!

    A couple of years ago they were losing 38 paramedics every month in their area ---the reason -----the way that the management mistreated them. I fear that they will be losing quite a few more when this is resolved and they are all seniors with over 20+ years experience and cracking people ---such a shame!

    Just to put a stop to this tommybollox, who is running the NHS, the British Government of the day or the suits in the NHS?

    If four totally thick fu-ckers on here (include me certainly in that number) can see it's a shambles, Johnson, Raab, Gove and Hancock, most certainly should.

    When this sh-itfest is over a serious restructuring needs to take place.

    It's the norm across the world, not just in the UK.

    When serious capitalists, entrepreneurs, tax dodgers and bankers heads hit the fan and the sh-it is seriously flying, why do they always want the very same taxpayer they have been mercilessly exploiting to bail them out? Let Virgin go to the wall for all I care.
