What gets my hackles up, is not which direction the money is being doled out, but the fact that money is being flung around by this government like confetti at a wedding, when we cannot staff our hospitals with enough nurses and the ones that are there are leaving in droves due to being overworked and undervalued.
I understand your arguement, Gayle, about the money being made available, so hyndburn might as well apply for a slice of the pie. What I don't agree with is the fact that the money is being spent in the first place. It doesn't cost 11 grand for people to talk to one another. To talk and hold a conversation is free; it doesn't cost anything. But first people have got to want to talk to one another.
