Comment on: Trusts fined over mixed sex wards
I do support non compliance. The sex make up of wards and other units is a clinical issue and should be left to health care professionals (HCPs). This rule is designed to ensure that the NHS is presented in as worse a light as possible. Operations and admissions are being cancelled because of it. The patients should be consulted by HCPs and allowed to decide for themselves how important is is to them.

Comment on: Hutton proposes pension overhaul
Perhaps so, Anonymous, but it needs to be phased in over a long term. At 53 with more than three-quarters of my contributions made please forgive me for defending my interests. I would have had different savings etc. for years if I had known that I was going to be stabbed in the back like this. Oh, and I've always intended to work to at least 65.

Comment on: No extra pay for Royal Wedding bank holiday
Which clown organised the wedding for that date anyway? They clearly don't work in acute hospital care, or care about those of us that do. We are having two 'four day weekends' back-to-back. It's going to be a real test of organisation for all of us. Oh,and we'll have to work harder for weeks afterwards to catch up with the cancelled appointments and operations from 29th.
