the lib dems say it is a serious crisis. that's the exact same way labour describes it.ause of seven, well eight years now of tory under—funding cuts. we've lost 14,000 beds in the nhs. we've got vacancies for 100,000 staff and of course, we have seen very severe cuts to social care. so elderly people don't get the support in the community that they should be getting. during this time, hospitals will not be penalised if they put patients on mixed—sex wards. but operations for cancer and other time—sensitive conditions will still go ahead. we know the system is going to get difficult. so rather than cancelling patients at the very last minute and having patients queueing, we want to do is free up the bed capacity that would normally be used for those planned care patients and make that available for our sick patients that are in the a&e departments. anna does feel frustrated, but thinks things could be worse for her. i'm not really in much pain, and i can carry on with life quite well. but i do feel very sorry for people who are waiting for hip operations or knee joints,

the lib dems are saying why should the government step in and rescue what was effectively a dud companywe are at saying you should be doing the same here because the reality and all this is that a lot of the work that we are seeing on the railways, and i'm talking about our members, is work that has to be done, there are contracts associated with that and in those circumstances evenif with that and in those circumstances even if they on a temporary basis, that work should be brought in house. i spoke to the chief executive of network rail yesterday and asked him if he would bring that work in house and they are looking at it. the government will make this decision. if they bring it in house, that work is guaranteed. but you also have to make sure that people get paid. quite a lot of the contractors used by carillon are self—employed. will they get paid? we don't know the answer. people like network rail have been telling us they are paying for the work to be done. if they are paying for the work, that money should end up in the pockets of the workers who are facing an uncertain future.
