You boy! I’m performing at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday. Tell everyone about it and let them know I’ll be available for selfies before and after the silence thing. I’ll also be signing copies of my book ‘It’s all about me’.

Well I find them depressing and childish to hit out at managers doing their best in really difficult circumstances.

Across my Trust and partner organisations I see amazing managers; values driven, smart, hard working and ethical. They work alongside all colleagues at every level in the trust with amazing clinicians, patients, communities and families. All lead together.

Hum! I suggest we would do rather better supporting our mostly dedicated managers in the work they do. Ex-minister would sack half of managers he has met ‘in a heartbeat’ hsj.co.uk/workforce/ex-minis…

Ex-minister would sack half of managers he has met ‘in a heartbeat’

An ex-health minister has said he would sack half of the NHS managers he has met "in a heartbeat" for not being good enough.

Look at how well JJ Gabriel has been treated by Michael Carrick. ❤️ The opportunities, the trust, the support United have clearly invested heavily in his development. It’s heartbreaking to see this situation unfold. His father may not realise just how much the club has done for JJ, and how special his pathway at Manchester United could have been. 💔😔 We really need to find a way to keep this kid. 🔴 #mufc

Also, why so few local players in the teams? Very hard to identify with them.

Apart from Rob Key and the morons at the @ECB_cricket does anyone know why the Hundred had to take place in August in peak summer holidays? Why can’t it take place in September after the County Championship, Metro Bank Cup and Test series have all concluded?
