Brilliant, as ever. It is infuriating to read and hear these tropes time and time again... of course what’s interesting is how the RCN is being given a less bumpy ride than the other unions, most likely because HMG and the ‘Counts of Copy and their valets’ are less sure of their footing.
Noticed the news describing scenes of chaos at hospitals lately. There is a genuine fear around conditions in hospitals that cuts through better than complaints of missing birthdays etc. Suspect human interest scare stories have much more appeal on the editor’s desk than government briefings.

Yes, much, much harder to go for the nurses.

I had to look up the 'Magi'.
I like these sophisticated references you throw in now and again.
Thanks, James. I rarely stray into sophistication.
