.@stvitusdance. It's certainly not the organisation it used to be (I think there was a recent crisis). I suspect the change of nursing from a vocation into a graduate profession lies behind much of what has gone wrong. — PolitiTweet.org

.@paulfaircloth. The arts of propaganda are multiple and varied. There are *many* ways in which popular groups such as nurses can gain public and political support fro their demands, which do not involve harming a single patient. I fear some people *prefer* to strike. — PolitiTweet.org

@rdisarray. Well, the 1967 Ohnesorg shooting triggered the cultural revolution in the Bundesrepublik. The policeman who shot him (in the back of the head, quite without excuse) had been a Stasi Mitarbeiter since 1955, but this did not come put till 2009. Makes me wonder. — PolitiTweet.org
