Dear friends, as this godforsaken year shuffles zombie-like to it's inevitable chainsaw dismemberment (too much?) we're determined, in the best tradition of mental health nursing, to find the funny in the midst of the awful.

Good morning folks!

Not that it's like us to get all political... but those of you who follow such things know that the Royal College of Nursing is trying to eat itself from the inside with some frankly ridiculous chicanery, and much as we love the institution and the fine folks in it, there's a few wee £%"*$((%"s that might need "adjusting".

We'd heartily endorse this motion for RCN members to sign to call (another) EGM to make sure the rot is removed:

Make the RCN work for it's members! We, the undersigned members of the Royal College of Nursing, in accordance with 13.3 of Standing Orders, request an Emergency General Meeting (EGM) be called within the next 3 months to discuss the communication and process surrounding the presidential election 2020 where two candidates were exclude...
