so oh

11:12

yes we're supposed to be having that

11:14

fixed aren't we

11:16

they're they're stuck in catch-22 aren't

11:18

they because they are carers they look

11:20

after sick people

11:22

so what do they do

11:24

when the government doesn't give them

11:26

enough money or actually gives them the

11:29

11:32

uh what can they do go on strike yeah

11:36

arguments about pay um you know health

12:08

and mental well-being of you know people

12:11

who work in the nhs but i think the

12:12

general population have definitely grown

12:16

a lot more

12:17

um

12:19

i guess a fond of those who work in that

12:21

service so they you know they show them

12:22

a lot of more appreciation they probably

12:24

did historically so obviously you know

12:26

we clapped on
