Dear Sir/Madam

 

BORIS ON TRACK

 

I've noted some rather sour reactions from republicans to London Mayor Boris Johnston's renaming of Crossrail to the Elizabeth Line in honour of our Queen.

 

Perhaps they should be campaigning to have it named the Boris Line? He is after all an elected representative.

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

LOCUM SOLUTION

It is time for Junior Doctors to take their gloves off in their fight against the Health Secretary.

 

Whilst a long term strike might be considered to contravene the Hippocratic Oath, surely nobody could find fault with medics who simply refused to accept the new contract and resigned from their posts?

 

Of course they would then be at liberty to register with temporary agencies to work at at whatever was the going rate. This would doubtless be more expensive for the NHS than simply settling with the BMA, but I cannot see any government allowing hospitals to close when there was a ready supply of suitable doctors available in the free market.
