I'd prefer it if the NHS focused their attention on providing safe maternity care for women and babies that didn't kill or maim them. Bigot that I am.

"According to the Care Quality Commission (CQC), two out of five maternity units in England are providing “substandard care to mothers and babies”.

A depressing read:

It is unforgivable that anyone in the NHS is dabbling in luxury beliefs in relation to maternity care for women and babies. Their sole focus should be on providing adequate safe care for women and babies and frankly, stopping leaving women and babies maimed, disabled or dead.

I understand that doing this is a complex issue but anyone trying to divert staff from their core responsibilities with irrelevant nonsense needs sacking.

This whole debacle has been a complete and utter farce. Devastating amounts of money wasted. And for what? Keep a handful of people happy. Destroy women's sport. Increase the risk to vulnerable women. Mutilate children. Remove privacy and dignity for women. I am so angry about it. Everyone who hasn't stood up and said no to these narcissists should hang their head in shame.

NHS Maternity Care is in a wretched state.

It's easier to do performative stuff for Stonewall and other points than to tackle the multi-dimensional problems with safe and equitable maternity care.

Astonishing, isn't it? Tells me clearly which kinds of people are valued.

Animal Farm.

Well said. It’s a scandal on many levels.
