And like the BBC, you pay for it even if you don't need any of the services. It's there for when you need it...

.. But, that's another thread, for a post-lockdown world.

That’s the problem with this country and with the world really, we are seen as England... no we are Great Britain. There’s more to us than just England. Same with this PPE scandal that’s not wanted to be spoken about. Focus on English hospitals before them in Wales and Scotland. It’s just wrong.

Completely agreed. That's why I think it's crucially important and the right move for GMB to not be using the NHS England logo as if it represents all four nations. When things like that are done, it adds to the problem and makes viewers in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland feel like they are not being catered for.

No we're not.


There is more to the UK than just Great Britain, which doesn't include Northern Ireland. You are guilty of the very problem you have attempted to highlight.

I suggest you stop digging! Very Happy

Surely GMB could’ve incorporated all the different logos

can someone do a mock up of how it would have looked with all 4 logos on screen?

I hope that is sarcasm...

If not, could you not just imagine the England logo shifted over and the others added?

Out of interest, do the BBC Nations, (and STV, ITV Wales, S4C, UTV etc) show the Government/NHS PIF that features the NHS England logo?

In Scotland, we get our own versions of the PIFs whcih include the NHS Scotland logo.

That’s an interesting one, because during one of the episodes of Quiz, on UTV, the same advert was run twice in the same ad break, both with HM Government logo in the top left corner, once with HSC logo in the top right corner, and again towards the end of the break with blue italic NHS (England) logo. The advert was otherwise identical. There’s also a completely different advert with a similar message being run by the Northern Ireland Executive featuring staff in HSC uniforms.

Good Morning Britain!

It's not 'Good Morning Great Britain' though, is it?


Perhaps it refers to the 'British Isles', which incidentally includes the territory of Great Britain, the whole of the island of Ireland, together with the non-UK Isle of Man and Channel Islands. Very Happy
