An interesting piece by Kathy Gyngell for TCW. Extracts:

“Managers in NHS trusts with poor performance are picking up six figure pay packages, the TaxPayers’ Alliance has discovered. Their NHS Rich List 2025 report shows that in 2023-24 there were 1,694 senior managers receiving over £100,000 in total remuneration across 224 NHS trusts. 

Total remuneration includes salary, expenses, benefits, bonuses and pension contributions. Looking at salaries alone, 1,557 had entitlements of at least £100,000, including 279 receiving between £200,000 and £300,000 and 17 who received over £300,000. There were 512 senior managers in the NHS on a higher salary than the Prime Minister [J4MB emphasis]…

The worst performing trust by percentage of A&E attendances within four hours or less was East Cheshire, with just 50.6 per cent of patients being seen within four hours. The trust had 8 senior managers who received over £100,000 in total remuneration, including the director of people and culture, Rachel Charlton, [J4MB emphasis] who received £367,500 in total remuneration.

The worst performing trust according to referral to treatment median waiting times was Cambridge and Peterborough, at 32.1 weeks. This trust had eight senior managers receiving over £100,000 in total remuneration. Their chief medical director, Catherine Walsh, [J4MB emphasis] received £387,500 in total remuneration.”

Today’s video is here (43:11).

Over a period of almost six months we’re posting links to one video daily from the comedy channel of our associated award-winning website, Laughing at Feminists. Remember, it’s more than important to laugh at feminists, it’s a civic duty.  

You might also be interested in the 700+ videos on our YouTube channel, which includes our media appearances since 2012, 300+ videos of talks and other materials from the International Conferences on Men’s Issues (2014 – ), from the other men’s issues conferences we’ve been involved with, and so much more. The individual conference playlists are here.

Our thanks to Steve for this. The end of the piece:

Judge O’Sullivan said Ms Cribbin was not trustworthy and had not come before the court with a trustworthy reputation.

“I do not find it credible that the impact was such as to smash her face into the steering wheel and chip two of her teeth,” the judge said. “Mr English rightly has given out that there is not a shred of medical evidence that she damaged her teeth.”

He said there had been no evidence of damage to either car, and he was very unhappy with the case. The plaintiff had come before the court, having failed to inform the defendant of her criminal prosecution.

“I find her as someone who just cannot be trusted in terms of credibility,” Judge O’Sullivan said.

Interesting (with video, 1:01). The end of the Sky News commentary:

A source close to the president previously told the Le Figaro newspaper the pair had “squabbled” but it was a “moment of closeness”.

An Elysee official denied the video showed a row between the couple, who have been married since 2007.

“It was a moment when the president and his wife were relaxing one last time before the start of the trip by having a laugh,” the official said.

Our thanks to Jeff for this piece (£) in today’s Sunday Times. Title above, subtitle “Being white and male can be a career disaster, a new podcast claims, with young men most anxious — but is it pushing them towards the likes of Reform and Andrew Tate?” I’d post some comments but I’ve been banned from commenting by both the Times and Telegraph, doubtless after objections to my previous comments from women, particularly feminists.

Caroline Wheeler, Political Editor, quotes Tim Samuels, a feminist, extensively. Many years ago he hosted a radio show, Men’s Hour, for the BBC, and utterly refused to engage with any MRAs or other anti-feminists. In 2012 I posted a piece titled ‘Men’s Hour’ – an endorsement from a gender feminist, Jenni Murray.
