Peter, My wife worked for the NHS treating Covid patients until July when she left as the muzzles and inconsistent working conditions became unbearable. She met an ex colleague last Friday who confirmed that at Pembury Hospital where my wife worked there were currently a total of 2 Covid patients and both were elderly people that tested positive with no symptoms but were at the hospital for routine hip operations. I know that one hospital does not give you the numbers nationally but we are in a so called "red zone" so you would think that they would carry some traction.

Where is our NHS I’ve heard story after story for months that many of our hospitals were empty!

Has since handed in her notice and they seemed pleased as the hospital she has been working the amount of staff there are tripping over one another! A top Oncologist even stated that our hospitals were never overwhelmed except for one that was near to being! Is everyone hiding behind closed doors afraid to speak out!

[@henrickemmerson4140]

Our local hospital had two wards closed in April because there were not enough patients. In the US there are doctors and nurses that have actually been furloughed due to lack of "customers." And of course the Nightingale debacle of hospitals built all over the country that were never used.

Speaking to a nurse on Saturday, I discovered that she has been advised not to have the NHS app on her phone at work. This is because every time she passes another phone with the app on, whose owner has a positive test, her phone will tell her to get tested. She has work colleagues who have been tested as positive TWICE or MORE and as a consequence have had to self isolate each time they test positive. It begs the obvious question "IF the tests are accurate how can you be positive twice (or more) several weeks or months apart?" and also "Why is such store and time and money being put into such pointless tests?" The BBC will not challenge the narrative is because as soon as they admit that the "Science" is by far from settled, it opens the them to criticism over nailing their colours to the mast of the global warning scare, and also as long as they support the government propaganda they perhaps hope to defend the licence fee. As far as general support for the measures go, I detect growing discontent and suspicion amongst me social milieu. On NIcky Campbell on Radio 5 this morning, there were finally a number of people phoning in to challenge the narrative, and they were not being talked over!

School style Report for Boris Johnson. Subject - Brexit Boris has shown great determination and intelligence in his approach to Brexit but I hope he has done enough revision and has the determination to pass his examination on 15th October. Subject - COVID Boris started well and made some progress during the first three months after which he seemed to lack direction. Since June there has been some concern that he is not researching this subject properly and depending on only one source of information for all his work. Subject - Democracy. Boris was viewed as being the most able in his class when he began this year but sadly his performance has waned to a point where unless he makes considerable efforts to improve he will not be allowed to continue. When we try to have debates in class he will not listen to other points of view, allow any criticism from, or debate with his peers. He will not be allowed to continue to bully other members of the debating society. Headmasters Report A disappointing performance in all but one subject, but that too can only be judged by his examination result in October. I am only too aware that we should make some allowance for the time he spent in hospital last term, and for the change in his family circumstances, but it’s time to change his attitude and he is running out of time ,especially in Democracy, where he has failed dismally of late.
