Plank Of The Week with Mike Graham | 05-January-24

[@talktv]

Should Sadiq Khan win Plank Of The Week?

[@effedorf]

You failed to mention that Sad IQ is using the Met police to investigate Israel…

[@karaperrio-du5gs]

He is the Plank of the century

[@badgambler-un5ck]

Hmmm its starting to become a little bit stale tbh. I have paused this within Khan bit, and Im gunna guess that you mention the police, an MP, wokism, or one of the other 5 million times youve covered it, its just mundane as fkc now!! Get new ideas FFS! Love ya Mike lol

[@badgambler-un5ck]

Did the wokiest on the end not say anything for like 20 minutes? hahahah

[@badgambler-un5ck]

The World Health Organization was correct then, it wouldnt jump from a bat to a human because it was man-made and released by a lab.

[@LyndaPrice-m6f]

Thank you for your program! As a former inhabitant of South London in the 70’s and as a grad student registered at IHR, you have given me so much laughter at the crazy world we now share. Thank you for your humour, great comments and highlighting the idiocy of our current world. Love and hugs to all!❤️💐👍

Brilliant as always, I love this show. Thanks guys, looking forward to next week 👍🥂🤣

NHS bosses should not be able to spend money that is not theirs. They need sacking...The Government is at fault to allow such behaviour...

[@nonamecommonsense9089]

The government does not rule the NHS but the top management does. Junior doctors bark at the wrong tree. Health care system is and always will be the black hole for money .

[@mareandickson3058]

D'you know, I for one am sick to the back teeth of all this NHS bashing... do these people realise its the 'boots on the ground' that are hanging on by the skin of they're teeth ie the Nurses, Auxiliaries & others in the lower ranks - it's the management who ARE the problem - the NHS has no problem recruiting staff, it's keeping those staff that's the problem.. the constant nitpicking by a white collar worker is totally demoralising. Also why after years of Uni etc are Nurses having to 'deep clean' wards - I thought that was why cleaners were employed - silly me!! Put a stop to the 'Agency staff' rip off & have a huge cull of management & middle management along with the assistant's & they're 'assistant's. Ask the damn Nurses how things need to be run & LISTEN TO THEM..

How many people got a cut of those £4M of vouchers? I bet a lot of people missed out. Give it to the important people. The cleaners and cooks and laundry people.

[@christerhannam3896]

Love this program

[@RichyDH]

please dont blame the hard working NHS staff for all the problems -- blame the untold thousands of managers who have just been promoted from the ranks and dont have a clue what they are doing. There is a whole layer of management that could be removed and no-one would notice. We need more frontline staff and less management

[@ruthcollins2841]

The £4m in vouchers should be given to those who have waited for an operation, cancelled by striking staff. Give each one a voucher to have the operation by private Drs!

[@maryprice5417]

No picket lines at all outside our local hospital. Think when they did stand waving flags at the traffic,support was not forthcoming. I worked for 20 years in various hospital labs and am disgusted with the lot of them

[@lindacoote8710]

I think Sadik Khan should be plank of year sooner get him out better love ❤️ your showxxx

[@MollyMarine]

I will admit, those fireworks might be the best I've ever seen (minus the woke messaging). I was in awe the entire time. Bravo to the British taxpayers and company behind the display. Sadiq Khan's name belongs nowhere near this

[@nonamecommonsense9089]

The Australian fireworks were much better, showing gold waterfall and all that. The London fireworks look like political education instead of pleasure and fun last years. Do you remember the blm fist? What to expect from a muslim...

[@MollyMarine]

I agree that the political messages were garbage but if you just watched the fireworks themselves they were pretty spectacular. @@nonamecommonsense9089

[@letscatchthemall6862]

Khan should be plank of the week every week

[@gaznottingham9652]

I watched Armageddon today and after a tough week of work it was exactly as required. Really funny and making light of the bad stuff in life is what gets you through. He even takes a minute at the end of the show to address this and often throughout the show. People need to lighten up a bit. One day we'll all be dead.

[@toniswift6058]

Not happy with the way our NHS has gone... Too many admin people, too many temp nurses and not enough happening to make sure our homegrown get trained. I have to go to hospital occasionally, and want to talk to someone that speaks english, that I can understand.

[@katryna192]

I have a granddaughter and a niece who work in NHS neither have ever thought to strike, one is a matron in midwifery and and one is a mental health nurse, they both say these doctors who strike just go private to get more money even though they get about 58 thousands a yr

[@toniswift6058]

@@katryna192 We know it's not all but sadly, too many are now just being paid too much money and the lists for being seen are getting longer. The NHS is now seen as easy money for a lot of staff with few patients being seen and a growing list of people that should have been dealt with years ago. I have lost a couple of people that were semi sorted with their cancer... So many appointments, delayed/cancelled they are now pushing up the daisies. The NHS is on its knees because of the amount of greedy admin, Doctors and Nurses!

[@mareandickson3058]

@rule3036...what, you didn't get your lbtq etc etc rainbow bridge badge?? Two Nurses in my family told them where to shove them... both are also fed up of the constant nitpicking & changing of things by management... Maybe it's about time that EVERYONE in management have got to spend an entire month, in uniform, working throughout various wards & see just what they are expecting the Nurses & Auxiliaries to contend with. Also, in our brand new hospital with single bed rooms, staff are encouraged NOT to 'waste' time' talking to the patients.. the whole point of nursing is to Care & to do that you need to build up a 'relationship' with your patient..

In America healthcare has been turned into a business model . Lost the patient care aspect. I speak from experience being involved in healthcare for over 20 years. Just sad.

Mr. Graham, please get checked out if this hoarseness is new and without any apparent cause. Better safe than sorry is my philosophy!
