Rounding. It's not weird at all. Although, when the rounded scores are level, reporting to greater accuracy would be nice.
The health secretary, Jeremy Hunt, has floated the idea of stopping walk-in patients from attending hospital emergency departments in an attempt to head off a winter crisis in the health service.
NHS England has denied it plans to pilot an idea that would require patients to consult their GP or NHS 111 before being allowed to go to A&E.
However, Dr Helen Thomas, its national medial adviser for integrated urgent care, said the health secretary was considering testing the idea.
“Jeremy Hunt has mentioned to some of my colleagues, maybe we should have a ‘talk before you walk’ and we may pilot that,” Thomas told the doctors’ magazine Pulse.
The Patients Association said Hunt’s idea revealed the depth of the financial crisis facing the NHS.
Thomas admitted that even piloting the idea was a “hot potato” but early discussions had been held.
“I think it’s been done in other countries where they’ve actually said you can’t come into ED (emergency departments) until you’ve talked on referral, or you have to have that sort of docket that you’re given by having talked on the phone that you do need to come to ED.”
Ex-con Dennis McShame has been released and is continually popping up in the media, usually wittering about Europe.Democracy in action, innit?
aaaand yougov now have them level.
Incidentally I've been watching Yes Minister this evening and listening to civil servants educate the minister on the common market "but surely we believe in the European dream" "we are there to make a pigs ear of the whole thing" ....very much in this veinHammond calling the EU the enemy. Then trying to retract it. Too late Phil you said it...
The old story springs to mind about the new MP referring to the opposition as the enemy & the old hand MP explaining to him the opposition were his opponents & his enemies were sitting all around him?

I'm struggling to see where the lobster comes into this. Is it some indicator of treachery and evil that I was previously unaware of?
And why is the fact that it cost £21.90 relevant to anything? That's sounds pretty cheap for a london restaurant special.
Is it all just so Nadine Dorris can say "it sounds very fishy"? (ignoring the fact that a lobster is a crustacean, not a fish). Im really confused.
I'm sure the news that a leading tory met another leading tory over lunch is worthy of a front page spread - but im too dim to see why.
ETA - ah - its a pun on lobster pot! Of course! Oh. my. sides.

It'd be terribly retro for May's govt to fall to a classic tory sex scandal.

by no means. she will be the first to start scrabbling in the dirt with her bare hands to start the trans-south georgia canal network. she thinks she's going to south georgia for a photo op with penguins. but you won't believe her surprise when she finds out it's strictly a one-way ticket.Priti Patel must surely be prime candidate for reassignment to some made-up ambassador role on the Falklands.
Priti Patel wanted to send aid money to Israeli army, No 10 confirms
My main memory of Priti Patel was a Question Time (BBC) appearance a few years back when she defended reintroduction of the death penalty. She came across as just monumentally thick. It's on youtube somewhere. The calibre of these jokers is woeful, I'm not at all surprised she didn't follow (or wasn't aware) of the protocol.Priti Patel must surely be prime candidate for reassignment to some made-up ambassador role on the Falklands.
