"Minimum staffing levels are not available for our patients or nurses on any day of the week. Minimum staffing levels on a day of industrial action action is just so far removed from reality and an insult to both our patients and to nurses." Pat Cullen MP on Good...

@V1CTORGiraffe @patcullen9 @GMB Totally this

@patcullen9 @GMB The out & out gall of presenters on 6 figure sums daring to question underpaid, understaffed nurses striking is all that’s sick with this country

@JujuliaGrace @patcullen9 @GMB had an accident last week. Dislocated arm and fractured shoulder. Ambulance took 1 1/2 hours. On a non strike day. laid in the pouring rain on concrete. Not they’re fault. So understaffed. Did a fantastic job for me. Apparently the public are against strikers. Not me!👏👏👏👍

@patcullen9 @GMB Beautifully put. There’s not a starker example of this government’s duplicity in industrial relations than the arguments they put forward around minimum staffing relating to the strikes. Minimum staffing is not happening now with a “full”workforce!

@patcullen9 @GMB Minimum safe staffing levels are what nurses around the world are crying out for. The difference between nurses and the govt is that nurses want it everyday and not just for strike days. Kia Kaha.

@Whirleysloth @patcullen9 @GMB I have seen first hand that minimum staffing levels are not met during normal times, this means minimum patient care is not met, better pay, conditions and more staffing required now!!! Shame on @RishiSunak and @SteveBarclay... #EnoughIsEnough #ToriesOut #GeneralElectionNow

@PeoplesMomentum @patcullen9 @GMB Don't let this dreadful government turn your heads .

@higgledygarden @patcullen9 @GMB One nurse on a ward a few weeks back when friends of mine visited a relative; had no time to help a chap eat his dinner who had, had a hand amputated! Bring back nursing colleges; you don't need a degree to care for people. Bring back nursing orderlies.

@patcullen9 @GMB Pat Cullen = dignity.

@doctor_oxford @patcullen9 @GMB This could actually backfire badly on the #UKGovernment should the #NHS turn round to them and make the point that on no given day are those levels met. Surely in order to impose this they must pay more.
