I have only once written a personal column in @PrivateEyeNews in 29 years. It explains why I have very strong views about people seeking help when they have suicidal thoughts, and those they seek help from listening and taking them seriously. Suicide isn’t painless.
DELAYS to the new hospital could cost the Island more than £100,000 per day should the stalemate between St Helier and the project team remain unresolved.
We are paying 45 million pound to Serco for contact tracing. Serco’s 18000 call handlers contacted only 10,000 contacts in two weeks. Meanwhile local public health teams contacted 77600 contacts ie almost eight times more according to DHSC Test and Track data.

Prime Ministerial?
It was sheer cowardice.
Interesting....Boris well ahead but I am now - for the first time - second amongst Conservative party members in the ConHome poll. Here’s hoping colleagues are seeing what is happening :)
