Nice to hear a trained person, not the normal tv face preaching.

To a very large extent, the 'Registered Nurse' has posited well. I'm sure people 4rm BAME communities or backgrounds will attest to the centuries-old fact. Suffice it to state here that even our so-called Multilaterism Project- the UN rarely gets meaned against the untouchables.

catriona_ogilvy I haven't seen any inequality in the NHS. Quite the reverse.

Inequality is nothing to do with race or sex. Just ask any white, working-class boy from a sink estate in a sink town in N.E. England. What you call inequality is a desperate bid for victimhood status for your particular Identity group.

Loved hearing her story today. A real trooper!

Absolutely!!!

BBCRadio4 It's time to ditch the useless Lauren Laverne and tempt Kirsty Young to come back.

Had to be a black woman didn't it.... just like the BBC's very own 'diversity' officer. That's why the BBC only has a Woman's Hour EnjoyYourPrivilege

Waste of money job , draining much needed funds

Broadcast to a guilt-ridden western audience instead of to the actual culprits

This was so interesting. It certainly made me think.

✊🏾✊🏼✊🏻✊

BBCRadio4 I wrote this a few weeks ago, but relevant for today's desertislanddiscschallenge -

Is she concerned about men being twice as likely to die than women? Does she think those vulnerable men should be shielded? How does she feel about there being no Men's Hour for men to discuss it?

Pls can you explain why this is the pkg you have promoted and not the interview w Carol Cooper?

📢📢📢 'Racism is a public health issue' 📢📢📢 Vital interview with Birmingham NHS Carol Cooper: clearly, plainly, devastatingly spells out how BlackLivesMatter less in NHS. Every MP, Peer, NHS manager should listen. Could save lives.

Excellent interview. Time for action.

Carol Cooper for Prime Minister! Thank you Jenni Murray & Woman's Hour for that excellent interview with Carol Cooper, saying what needs to be said and doing what needs to be done. Brilliant.

BBCRadio4 What was the name of the artist and the track? I couldn’t catch it. It’s such a great tune!

Brilliant Helen

Superb interview. We need to improve health outcomes for our Black & ethnic minority patients. wres_team

Very helpful interview. Thank you

Carol was so eloquent in this discussion and I applaud her

Would be interesting to interview Nadine Dorries on this as I think she is supposed to be Minister for Health and Safety.
