Overcrowding in A&E units

Madam, - Thank God for giving us the razor-sharp, cutting-edge leaders we have

Madam, - Thank God for giving us the razor-sharp, cutting-edge leaders we have. After months of pooling their brightest ideas, we finally have the answer to the A&E crisis: shove an extra bed into each ward. An absolutely brilliant strategy, well worth the wait and the cost.

Without wishing to steal our leaders' future bright ideas, might I suggest bunk beds or the odd hammock? - Yours, etc,

JOHN GIBLIN, Brusna, Ballaghadereen, Co Roscommon.
