Get Chompy to use his clout with the NHS
he can threaten to withhold paperclips.

Seriously, that sucks dude. It's ridiculous how the NHS is constantly having to do this kind of shit because of government targets and spending cuts.

I know, right?
You'd think the NHS would be the single most important thing for the country.

Yet they can still hire translators at £250/hour or whatever it is.
Not saying they aren't important, just that it's a rediculous amount.

Stop reading the Mail, gonz.
Honestly. The stress of all that bullshit is probably doing your guts no fucking good at all.

Nah', that figure was given by ex flatmates who both work in the NHS.

"whatever it is" is not a figure

I can't remember the figure, but it was somewhere between £250-500.
So I went for the lowest one

Complete balls.
You're out by a factor of ten. Two minutes with google shows that it's up to about £50 an hour for face-to-face translation.

edit: and that's top end, I just looked at a list of freelancers offering translation services and they average less than half that.
