Erika Jayne says she was joking about PK, Dorit Kemsley breakup

Image
Erika Jayne is backtracking on her comments about Dorit and Paul “PK” Kemsley’s marriage. After PK shaded Jayne on Instagram for claiming his marriage was on the rocks, the “Pretty Mess” singer commented on his post claiming it was all in good fun. “When did you get so sensitive? You know damn well I was joking..” the reality star wrote. Erika Jayne claims she was joking about friends PK and Dorit Kemsley’s potential split. Instagram/theprettymess Over the weekend, Jayne predicted her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-stars would be the next Bravolebrities to divorce during a panel at BravoCon. After being asked which relationship was headed to “Splitsville,” the 51-year-old initially dodged the question, saying she felt “bad.” However, she quickly changed her tune and marched to centerstage before revealing “Dorit and PK.” PK and Dorit have both spoken out about Jayne’s comments.

GPs want to work 9-5 and be like people in 'most other jobs' so they can devote time to family A statutory body says that GPs wanting families face indirect discrimination  Currently, the core opening hours are 8am to 6.30pm, Monday to Friday GPs say that other doctors would provide out of hours cover in new proposal A UK-wide conference of GPs voted against cutting core hours in March 2022 By Shaun Wooller Health Editor For The Daily Mail Published: 00:27, 3 November 2022 | Updated: 08:23, 3 November 2022 GPs are calling for their hours to be cut to 9am-5pm. The family doctors, who earn an average of £111,900 a year, say it is unfair to expect them to start earlier or finish later than ‘most other jobs’. Representatives will vote on the proposals at the annual conference of England’s local medical committees this month and could lobby NHS England for the changes if passed.  Curren...

Would YOU save a dying stranger... if they were vegan?

Image
Social media users have criticised an Oxford academic who controversially claimed that letting meat-eaters die if they were drowning can be ethical because of the suffering they cause to animals.   Dr Michael Plant, a philosopher focusing on happiness, and who eats meat, argued that it can be justifiable to not save people like himself. Critics immediately disputed his argument, based entirely on a hypothetical scenario where a member of the public witnessed a meat-eater dying.  Tausi Insider readers said the logic — which Dr Plant did not confess to sharing— 'works both ways'. Twitter users described it as 'literally nuts'. One called Julie said: 'I don't eat red meat but whether I did nor not, I'd never let a stranger die if I could save them.' Another joked: 'Two steaks will be consumed tonight in honour of this Tweet.' One user, who doesn't publish their real name, asked: 'What if they're unconscious is there a way of telling me...

Striking NHS nurses to give 'Christmas level of service'

Image
Unprecedented NHS nursing strikes will mean patients only receive a 'bank holiday' level of service this winter. Vital cancer and kidney disease treatments and routine operations could be axed as thousands of health workers walk out over pay.  The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) is due to publish the results of its ballot on strike action later this week, but a large majority are understood to have voted in favour of the strike.  It is the first time the RCN has balloted all of its 300,000 members for strike action in its 106-year history.  The RCN is demanding nurses receive a cost-of-living pay rise of 5 per cent above inflation,  which currently sits at 12.3 per cent.  This would grant the average nurse, who earns roughly £35,600 each year, an extra £6,150 annually. Senior health sources said the NHS will operate as if it is Christmas Day on all strike days, with elective treatments scrapped — though emergency care will go ahead. They warned the action may exacerbate the be...

Britain's decaying dental industry facing ticking 'timebomb', health chiefs warn

Image
[ad_1] Britain's decaying dental industry is facing a ticking 'timebomb', with health chiefs today warning NHS dentistry is now in its 'death throes'.  Millions could 'lose out' on vital treatment, dental bosses have claimed, unless the Government takes 'urgent' action to reform the service, pumping in more cash and recruiting extra staff. The plea comes as the MailOnline can today reveal the scale of the crisis facing NHS dentists in England, with some patients waiting a year or more for treatment. In the 10 worst counties in England there are just 2,815 NHS dentists serving a population of more than 11.5 million people - or an average of one dentist to every 3,476 people.   The country's worst area to receive NHS dental treatment is Kent, with just 407 dentists covering a population of almost 1.6 million - or one to every 3,904 people. While Hampshire, where the dental crisis has been raging for several years, is ...
