Threatening to leave a good NHS job is easy, actually carrying it out not quite so. When partner or family point out the mortgage payments, pension, decent wages and having to go out there and find another job.
It is easy to threaten to walk away but far easier to not risk everything and have a little jab instead.
I was at the Hawthorns for the Cardiff game and although stewards were asking everyone to make sure they had their covid pass ready to be checked, nobody actually checked it anyway. Likewise, mask wearing in enclosed spaces was not being enforced.Quote:

We don't have anyone going into the medical or nursing professions, because they may need vaccinations to protect themselves. And I'm sure there are other examples.Quote:

Except that Army recruits DON'T have to agree to vaccinations. I was astonished to hear, while talking to a neighbour's son on New Year's Eve, who has been in the Army for 3 years, that soldiers do have the option to refuse the jab - some have. He explained that he is due to be posted to Germany and then Estonia and that members of his regiment who have not been vaccinated obviously aren't able to travel abroad. The 'punishment', according to him, was that this would negatively affect their promotion options, due to reduced experience.
and many of them aren't happy bunnies.Quote:

They have been unable to get hold of the medical records for 1,000s of veterans as the MoD says they have been "inadvertently destroyed".

Experimental jabs → lack of informed consent → serious side effects → compensation from the tax payer → those responsible untouchable
That's a rather pleasant way of expressing the army's displeasure.Quote:
