    Seen this quote in various places:

    'All the clapping in the world but if you want a pay rise or a shift that doesn't last 24hrs or that £350,000,000 a week we promised, you can go and #### yourselves. The time for Britain to show it's support for the NHS was at the ballot box in December and Britain spat in it's face instead.....The NHS just got a thank you tonight when what it REALLY deserved was a grovelling apology. The Tories are succeeding in stage managing current events and turning them into a story about an unavoidable tragedy filled with heartwarming tales of heroism and the best of British when it is in fact a story about a failed, unfathomably greedy, sociopathic, neoliberal system with blood on its hands and cowardly, criminally negligent leadership that places the economy before the people.

    Don't let them gaslight you.

    If you're anything but very ####ing angry, you're not paying enough attention.'

    Sounds about right in any case!
