Quotes

"You never know when something is going to land in your inbox, so there is that tingle of excitement every time you check," says Stafford. "There's something about being in the process that's really immersive. We're engaged while it's happening. It looks like it is convenient, but it's not: you are distracted for the next half hour, asking yourself if someone has answered."
The new fast ways of keeping in touch are driving us further apart [Observer - 11/01/2009]
Ms Rayner said it was by 'sad coincidence' that she trained as a nurse with one of the patients who had 'suffered so much'. She went on: "I know that she, like me, was horrified by the appalling care she had before she died. 'We both came from a generation of nurses who were trained at the bedside and in whom the core values of nursing were deeply inculcated.' Katherine Murphy, Director of the Patients Association, said Whilst Mid Staffordshire may have been an anomaly in terms of scale the PA knew the kinds of appalling treatment given there could be found across the NHS. This report removes any doubt and makes this clear to all. Two of the accounts come from Stafford, and they sadly fail to stand out from the others. These accounts tell the story of the two percent of patients that consistently rate their care as poor (in NHS patient surveys). 'If this was extrapolated to the whole of the NHS from 2002 to 2008 it would equate to over one million patients. Very often these are the most vulnerable elderly and terminally ill patients. Its a sad indictment of the care they receive. The Patients Association said one hospital had threatened it with legal action if it chose to publish the material."

...Steve Burgin, President of Alstom in the UK, said: "This opening today is evidence of our commitment to Stafford and to the UK engineering industry.

Many workers spoke of the growing spectre of mass unemployment. Terry, a JCB worker from Stafford, told Socialist Worker, "There have been 1,500 job cuts at JCB so far and 150 at our place. 'It's going to get worse - we've got no orders in for the next few months. Management say they are trying to keep people in work by cutting pay. But some of us think the pay cut has made no difference - they're still sacking people.' Demonstrators cheered workers from the CGT union in Paris as they emerged from Embankment tube to join the march. 'Trade unions across Europe are united against the crisis,' Olivier Seveon from the CGT told Socialist Worker. 'All workers are facing the same situation in every country - managers everywhere are attacking workers. Now is the moment that trade unionists can see that we all have the same interests.' Daniel, a student from St Andrews university in Fife, Scotland, was involved in the recent occupation at the college in solidarity with Gaza. He told Socialist Worker, 'I'm here to campaign against the system that has led to this crisis - both economic and environmental. 'We've heard a lot about the student protests of the 1960s. The problem is that they lost. But with the current wave of university occupations, I think things are starting to change.' There were some weaknesses in the demonstration. Some unions currently in the frontline of fighting attacks on public services such as the PCS civil service workers' union, the FBU firefighters' union and the CWU postal workers' union were not as well represented as they should have been."
Thousands march to demand that people are put first [Socialist Worker - 03/31/2009]
