Is it about time Sir Kier Starmer abolishes NHS England?
About this episode
Sir Kier Starmer announced yesterday his intention to abolish NHS England to bring the healthcare service back under government control to reduce bureaucracy and costs. Today, James searched for the lived experiences of those who have worked with NHS England, to highlight why the abolition may be welcome.
Following Monday’s focus on online safety, James also returned to this topic as the UK Schools Leader announced that social media platforms must be held accountable for their role in bullying and the spread of “deepfakes.” He asked his listeners a unique question, how much damage has social media done?
Furthermore, as reported by The Times, creative subjects such as art, music, and drama are at risk of being removed from the school curriculum. Listeners gave their testimonies that reflect the impact access to arts has on individuals, when exposed at a young age.
