Also In The News - part 3

If Putin agrees to an interview with Tucker Carlson then it’ll be both tailored for western ears but also with a mind to the fact it would likely reach the ears of his populace too. I don’t know why you think such an interview would be blocked by the West when the whole point is that we would be the target audience.

 

Besides, you already know Putin’s angle so what exactly are you expecting to hear from him that’s new? Or is the situation actually that you’ve long since made up your mind on the matter, you don’t really care about balance at all and you just want his words to reach more western ears because you agree with them?

I hope the people carrying out the demolition work at Capt. Tom's home leave the pile of rubbish in the garden.

Putin’s views on the west are hardly a mystery are they? It’ll go something like “I don’t blame the population, the puppet masters are the problem, we know that there are sensible people like Carlson who will re-establish global order”.

10s of thousands are diagnosed every year. He'll get the upmost care available, not stuck on a waiting list.

Apparently discovered during the prostate process so I'd imagine something like colon or testicular which are very treatable. You'd imagine he'll be fine.

Immediate cancer treatment is about the only well functioning service within the nhs.

He's a fairly old dude.

 

It would knock a 30 year old sideways.

 

Someone his age, it'll take a lot of getting over.

With Kate and Charles on the injury list and unable to perform public duties for a while, will we see a shock return for Harry on an emergency loan?

No there was complications with his paper work and they thought they wouldn't get it through in time.

They thought my lad had cancer on a Thursday in 2022, by the following Tuesday before definitively confirming it was what they thought, he'd started steroids and began chemotherapy.

59.2% of patients began treatment within 62 days of an urgent suspected cancer referral in June 2023.  

NHS England. Cancer Waiting Times 

 

In November 2023, the new two-month cancer wait time target was being missed by 35% of patients. NHS England aim to have no more than 15% of patients waiting longer than two months until a first treatment for cancer.

Yeah, they'll call him the Comeback Kid Prince (rather than the 'Come on a Kid's Back Prince' as he's currently known...)

The 2 month wait target surprises me, Leicester has a 2 week target, or at least they did just before covid, and in my experience it was much quicker even than that.

 

To see that 35% of people are seen outside of 2 months is pretty shocking tbh. Nobody should be waiting that long.

You should not wait more than 28 days from referral to finding out whether you have cancer or not. I was on the diagnostic pathway for 79 days after five consultant cancellations. When I received the final one, immediately after opening the letter, I drove down to the hospital department that afternoon, informed them what had happened and a staff nurse who was visibly appalled, arranged for me to see a doctor immediately who was able to give me my diagnosis.
