RIP, Captain Tom, your contribution to the NHS will not be forgotten.
It’s absolutely shameful that the NHS is being cut to the bone by the Tories that fundraising efforts such as his are necessary.
There are photos of him on holiday abroad at Christmas. Given the results, I only hope that he really did choose to go and wasn't forced, and had a good time.
The holiday in the Bahamas? Word is that did happen. Yes it was wrong, but at the same time, it doesn’t undermine what he did for the NHS.
I wouldn't blame him anyway. A man that age doesn't suddenly decide to go to the Bahamas, I would put the blame on that squarely on his family.
I agree that the Tories have chronically and purposely underfunded the NHS for over a decade.
He did. So did the family. It was all paid for.

What do you mean “word is that it did happen”. He tweeted pictures of his family there and of him on the flight tagging British Airways in it
True, if he had not risen to fame over the last year this would not be allowed.What do you mean “word is that it did happen”. He tweeted pictures of his family there and of him on the flight tagging British Airways in it
Its sad that he’s died but his family have been given special treatment to visit him in hospital while he has a deadly disease whilst other families have been denied this privilege and had to go through the knowledge that their family member has died alone in pain. What gives them the right to be given preferential treatment but us ‘commoners’ are not allowed to get. It’s gross

I’d argue it wasn’t done for his family, it was done for him. It may not be right, but he did a lot of good. I’d rather he gets special treatment, if anyone gets it at all, over the rich and famous.What do you mean “word is that it did happen”.

Just think it's important to note here, as in the other thread, that Barbados is not some private island for wealthy British tourists, people live there and are dealing with the pandemic themselves.
nah they'll just leverage his death in some slimy propaganda PR shyte that praises his efforts and the NHS whilst everything else they do chokes the organisation into the ground
This is absolute nonsense, I was allowed to see my Dad right before he passed away and that was in November. If they think/know you're on your deathbed they have allowed small amounts of family to see patients.What do you mean “word is that it did happen”.

oh, I wasn’t mentioning the trip since I have nothing positive to say. Just meant his last days in the hospital.
To be fair wasn’t travel allowed at the time, albeit not recommended to do so, and I know Barbados had a rigorous testing process before boarding, after landing, and in hotel quarantine and had no cases so I imagine Bahamas was the same.
