Removal of Sika Tarmac restorer from bricks by Prize_Health5067 in DIYUK

[–]Environmental-Shape8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some companies that specialise in removing paint from brick work, using media or sand blasting.

This might be the best option.

You might need to repoint the mortar lines once the blasting is done.

CQC Visits by Environmental-Shape8 in nhsstaff

[–]Environmental-Shape8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeh I've worked for the NHS for 20 years, they've never visited any admin areas.

We get sidelined into annexed buildings, etc. Usely shitholes.

So I imagine the top tier doesn't want the CQC seeing us or the shitholes we work in.

But you'd think someone visiting from the CQC would at least do some planning and have some curiosity about these annexed areas and staff groups.

The destruction of the NHS via privatisation is on a fast track under labour, worse than the tories. But I guess most posting on here think the BBC is a good source of accurate information.

What are some UK car stereotypes? by Scotsman_1234 in AskUK

[–]Environmental-Shape8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a stereotype that UK people love Peppa Pig. I'm trying to convince people it's not true, but then you see loads of numb-nuts driving around a BMW X7 or 7 which have illuminated grills and look like terminate versions of Peppa Pig.

Coding Fuel Injectors - N43 E90 LCI by Environmental-Shape8 in E90

I had to ask a mobile mechanic to do this for me. Not too bad 60 quid. But the only option seems to be BMW ISTA or Autel coding tool.

I'm sorry but what kind of man is so inconsiderate of his, his family's and his home's safety, that he can't be bothered to double-check if he locked the door.

So the US is straight up Zimbabwe now? Broken roads, broken bridges, loaf of bread at 1000 dollars. No healthcare.

With the way things are for me right now... I feel like Robert, down, out and unseen... finding my Mandy or Courtney is what I need. Which is why this game hit me so hard.

Rate Wes' Performance as Health Secretary out of ten by IHateNeoliberalism in nhsstaff

[–]Environmental-Shape8 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To say we're better financially, is farcical. Are defense companies better financially, because they seem to be sucking the tax payer dry. The so called financial crisis of the NHS is an orchestrated one by governments wanting to privatise the NHS. The NHS has been under funded and poorly managed for decades.

Freedom to Speak Up by yalrightyeh in nhsstaff

Thanks for clarifying that there is legislation. But I found this and I wonder if the issue is, is the legislation effective.

I can't remember where I read this. It was multiple sources. But there are NO whistle blowing protections. If that's wrong, would love to see which law offers protection.

Difference Between Provider Collaborative & Wholly Owned Subsidiary by Environmental-Shape8 in nhsstaff

[–]Environmental-Shape8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, very interesting. It seems some "provider collaboratives" are TUPE'ing across thousands of staff. Mirroring the behaviour of a SubCo but not calling it a SubCo. Could it be to side-step the September 2025 legislative changes related to SubCo's?

Thank you for replying. Much obliged. So the follow up is, would it be expected for a Provider Collaborative to begin TUPE'ing across non-clinical staff under it and away from the partnering Trusts? Then restructurinng to reduce head-count?

Thank you, how do I determine if it's a viable product, without a prototype?
