My local ambulance service have just posted up their Pride ambulances. The managers have also given anyone who wants them rainbow epaulettes (despite this being against the uniform policy). It is such a scandalous waste of money. One brave staff member queried if this was really what they should be investing in given it's political links etc and has basically been called a bigot.
It makes me so cross.

I feel like the line from the news articles on the Julie Jarman affair should be shared here. That the presence of pride flags is enough for women to know that their boundaries are at risk.
I feel unsafe, concerned and reticent to confide when I see the pride/trans flags now.
But I expect I don't matter.

The government will need to deal with this as part of the need for financial efficiency. They should appoint a Waste Czar (whatever a czar actually is). That person should have power of veto over any decisions reported confidentially by staff.

Is that an actual ambulance? It looks like a carnival float.
Ridiculous waste of taxpayer money.

There is money, but everything has to have a business case made for it.
