Because the Manchester NHS Trust contains nobody in a senior position who has any real world commercial experience they obviously missed the key point that the majority of takeovers fail. But never mind, the only people who suffer are patients
Fairly soon they won’t even have time to offer healthcare because they’ll be too busy doing another inclusivity course or learning about misinformation or promoting jabs or something. You’ll be directed to an AI chatbot who will talk you through your own surgery with a letter opener and a bottle of vodka for the anaesthetic…
We no longer have access to GP services. Even staff at the surgery come right out and tell you “we cannot offer you an appointment.”
Of course AI chatbots promoted covid vaccines. They are tools of those who sponsor and train them.
Off topic, I saw a TV ad last night for some dog collar thing that tracks your dog in case it runs off or whatever (not a bad idea from I’ve seen of dogs disappearing into the woods where I live). They referred to their potential customers as “pet parents” rather than “dog owners”. I’m not an animal person but I do sort of get the idea of looking after a pet, but “pet parents” is a bit creepy and reinforces the idea of them being surrogate children. Interested to hear views on this.
It seems to me that a lot of people have a need to care for something eternally childlike. A way to avoid reality?
I do understand however that animals also provide a great deal of real therapy. They’re so uncritical. Unless it’s a cat, of course.
Yes it’s true what they say; “Dogs have masters, cats have servants.”
A version of this that I heard: A priest should either have a cat or a dog. A cat will remind him how insignificant he is. A dog will show him the meaning of unconditional love.
Ancient Egyptians regarded cats as gods. Cats have never forgotten this.
And dog backwards..it’s not a coincidence?? LOL!
Indeed.
The last few years have probably rendered me paranoid – I wonder if it’s some creepy ploy to raise the status of beasts or lower the status of human beings.
Totally.
It’s like a jungle sometimes. It makes me wonder how I keep from going under…

Always be wary about any change of language. Language, more specifically words, have power. Look at how the globalists use language that is designed to appear truthful, caring, serious and the rest. In a way, and please forgive this sidetrack into what many regard as land of woo, these are a sort of spell. An enchantment that when repeated often enough (‘safe and effective’ for example) become the reality for those who can’t see what is being done. Anyway, just my thoughts and perhaps it’s possible to find out the purpose of this re-positioning of words.
The thing is though that with the globalists their arrogance and lack of self-awareness is their downfall. There is now no shortage of proof which demonstrates the sheer contradictions to any amount of BS words they might care to spout. Their lies are easily exposed. I don’t think words have the same level of power that they did a few years back. Not by a long shot. The seeds of mistrust in authority have been sown due to people waking up to the plandemic and clot shot fiasco. Once people see beyond the curtain which reveals one fraudulent and harmful agenda then they’re more likely to look beyond other narratives. I personally think it’d be highly unusual to be sceptical of only one story that we’re told by TPTB but question no others.
“I personally think it’d be highly unusual to be sceptical of only one story that we’re told by TPTB but question no others.”
Absolutely Mogs. Once suspicions are aroused around one Jackanory it is only a short time before people become red-pilled.
“Always be wary about any change of language.”
Absolutely Aethelred and never cede the language to our oppressors.
Now how could “pet parents” be expanded I wonder? Is it meant to equate people with pets perhaps? We’ll upgrade the pets and downgrade the yumans.
This mangling and inverting of language is deliberate and insidious. Let us not fall for it.
Too true, HP!
I’m a huge animal fan..people, not so much! LOL!
I always have a dog..can’t imagine life without one..can’t imagine not walking somewhere every day after so many years of doing it..whatever the weather….
but I’m not a pet parent…!!
That just seems to me to be the thin end of the wedge..along with tutu’s and frocks and clothes for dogs….
My dog is a dog..and I treat him like one..(although he is sitting next to me on the sofa as I write, so maybe he does get away with some stuff….)!!
Yup, all that makes perfect sense to me.
Then you won’t be a fan of ‘doggie buggies’ then! LOL I hadn’t even seen little dogs being pushed around in special buggies until I moved here. It seems chahuahua owners in particular are a fan of them. It’s strange but I always assumed that ”just taking the dog for a walk” involved the dog’s feet actually touching the ground.
Actually the other day I saw a cat being walked on a lead and I’ve seen 2 bunnies being pushed in a buggy. My friend said she saw somebody walking a chicken on a lead and I’ve also saw a ferret ( or similar small furry ) being walked. Better than being cooped up permanently though and I do like eccentric people!
Oh and some lady walks around the park with a beautiful parrot on her shoulder..
A doggie buggy for a fashion accessory is just vile. A doggie buggy to take an elderly dog who can only potter short distances out for a walk is a different matter as it can really improve the quality of that dog’s life. One German Shepherd in the village used to be out 3 or 4 times a day with her owner until her back legs went & limited her world to her garden. Getting out & about in her buggy lifted her spirits as she was once again able to meet her doggy friends & interact with the world.
Like everything, they have a place.
Yes that’s lovely. But it must have been a big buggy for a Shepherd though. I’ve never seen a big dog in one, only the little ankle-biters. Here you’re only allowed to take your dog off it’s lead in designated doggy parks that are fenced off, so the dogs have a grand old time playing and socializing. I can imagine that a dog that can no longer go far would really suffer mentally through lack of social contact if you couldn’t get it some place where it can interact with other dogs, like nature intended.
It was & low to the ground so that she could get on & off easily & interact. Sadly she is no longer with us but it made the last year or so of her life so much better.
LOL! They are a phenomena aren’t they….? As I live near a popular coastal town I have to say I now see more visitors with dog buggy’s than kids in pushchairs?…I suppose it’s a natural progression, and different from when I was a kid…now kids get everything and are over-indulged so later in life doing the same with your dog seems normal?
Only had 9 days in my whole life without a dog – those 9 days were just awful.
But like you Mrs G, life without a dog isn’t a life for me. My boy is most definitely a dog, a very well treated dog but first & foremost a terrier & a useful hot water bottle in the winter
A few years ago I had a pedometer that linked to my iPad..when the dog was much younger..I remember getting a message after wearing it for a few days saying ‘Congratulations you have walked the distance of the Hawaiian peninsula’.LOL..I’m not sure how far that might be, it might only be a short peninsula, but after 40 years I must have clocked up some miles..and although my dogs are always slim and fit..my thighs never get any smaller!!!
I must have clocked up a fair few miles myself over the years!
I reckon that it will be all the thigh muscle that you’ve built up over the years….
To be serious, ask yourself what is the difference between the ‘love’ and ‘affection’ and ‘companionship’ a person can get from an AI device (robot, whatever) and the love and affection and companionship a person can get from a dog or a cat. I think the answer is profound.
Indeed no comparison. But just seems weird to use the word “parent”. Obviously there is some overlap, but your human children and animal pets are surely in different categories.
15 years ago, I would have agreed with you, and I never wanted to own a dog or a cat. But five years ago I inherited a Siamese cat (whom I had already grown to love) and in essence I now see no different category between the personality/soul/spirit inhabiting the cat’s body and a personality/soul/spirit inhabiting a human body. My cat is more emotionally intelligent than many humans I know.
I rather like cats but I can’t see myself feeling the same way about one as I do my children.
That’s what I used to think!
LOL, yes the American term, ”fur baby” is quite cringey, but it comes from a place of love so I can’t be too judgmental. Better to be a bit OTT than neglect your pet. Also, for people that have no kids I can see how a pet would become a substitute for one.
Indeed neglect is despicable, and certainly caring for a living thing is important. Still feels weird to me to expressly use the term “parent” and it’s new to me.
I also find it hard to reconcile thinking of them as your children unless you’re a vegan. If you eat meat or use animal products produced from the animal industry then doesn’t that mean you think of them as beasts, not souls.
They are beasts or souls (or both) regardless of whether you eat them or not. I’m a vegetarian but I buy meat for my cat, and I’d rather not contribute to killing animals but cats can’t live without meat, so I just have to come to terms with that reality.
Well, to put it bluntly I could not eat humans, unless I suppose I had no choice for survival.
You shall own nothing and be happy.
well you don’t see this very often. A politician in Japan speaking out about his own severe adverse effect from being vaxxed;
”I am suffering from malignant lymphoma after receiving the Messenger RNA vaccine three times. I am a member of the Japanese parliament. A video of me discussing the effects of the vaccine with Professor Yasumasa Inoue, an expert in molecular biology, was banned by Google.
Does your country allow companies to censor vaccine information? Will you allow violations of my right to pursue the cause of my illness?
Japan is the country where the highest number of people have received the Messenger RNA vaccine worldwide and also has the highest number of excess deaths. I am concerned that Japanese citizens are suffering and dying from the effects of the vaccine.”

Is it possible to stop printing anything else about trans, net zero, climate change, thanks.
Why’s that, Marebobowl? These are among the dominant issues of our times.
Indeed! Very appositely, this was posted by Dr Robert Malone yesterday, an interesting take on what’s happening by Dr Robert Lindsay – first half is useful definitions, second half carries the punch.

I do like to listen to a well read academic….
What should DS be printing things about, in your view?
I think the majority of the screeching is not actually from trans people – but from people offended on behalf of trans people.
You’re right. Kathleen has said herself, most of the screaming, hysterical banshees are not even legit trans people in the first place. Just hateful and aggressive mentally ill people jumping on the bandwagon.
You’re right. We need to focus on where the noise is coming from, not so much on what the noise is about.

An excellent article warning of the dangers of the amendments to the International Health Regulations and the proposed new Pandemic Preparedness Treaty.
If Fishy nods these through – more than likely – we are well and truly F#cked!
“Many of the proposed IHR Amendments are of deep concern. These include making WHO emergency guidance legally binding (upgraded from the current ‘advisory’ status) on member states and their people, and simultaneously removing the IHR clause requiring the WHO to uphold ‘full respect for the dignity, human rights and fundamental freedoms’ of individuals.”
The Plandemic has tested the water for the Chunts pulling our strings ! The semi concentration camps that Trudeau & Australia trialed will be full of the non compliant ! The uk also has a couple of new super hotel type prisons to give us sceptics time to change our minds !

The humanitarian crisis in #Syria is one of the most severe crises in the world, with more than 70% of the country’s population in need of assistance, but the 2023 #Humanitarian Response Plan is less than 8% funded.
Urgent additional funding is needed to prevent further decline.

Chris Littlewood has a good thread about it…..

I just can’t believe what I am reading.
The UK Government has approved this SKYCovion COVID Shot based on a nothing burger.
I’ll make some salient points about it.
Its efficacy was not part of the clinical trials.
If it does provide protection, they don’t know what it will be, because it’s still in clinical trials.
If they give it to you, you will be the lab rat in this ongoing trail.
They don’t know how it affects pregnant women, or the foetus, no trials have been conducted.
But medical staff should consider the risk/benefit before injecting.
How exactly can you consider a risk/benefit against no information on the risks??
Between 1-100 & 1-1000 people reported a cardiac disorder as an Adverse Drug Reaction.
Blimey..here we go again!!
How people cannot put two and two together and come up with the depopulation agenda is beyond me. It’s bloody blatant.

The latest video from Dr John Campbell regarding a paper on a WHO database that states COVID vaccines can cause multiple sclerosis:-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9S2jooTxkQ
Looking at an article from 2020 regarding a pause of the Astrazeneca trial because one of the participants developed transverse myelitis following COVID vaccination, I can see the trial was also paused in July 2020 because a participant had developed multiple sclerosis. The condition was deemed unrelated to COVID vaccination.
