Yesterday I attended an interview for Cardiology registrar posts.
I can't be sure of the exact numbers, but there were ~25-30 applicants.
The number I can be sure of is the number of female applicants.
Because it was precisely *one*.
Cardiology, we have a problem.

Thanks Keir, really looking forward to Labour standing aside for me in Hillsborough ward in 2021 ;-)
Key workers have led the way through this crisis.
Now, Labour will support you in standing for election and leading our country's recovery.
