I get what you are saying - the politicians and media are perpetuating ignorance for their own ends, with the specific example being the idea that a paramedic and an EMT is all the same. but I'm not using simple terms because I think they're correct. Often I know they're not and that there is a "proper" term I should be using. I'm using them because what I need, is simple terminology. There is no way on god's green earth I am going to be able to remember the proper job title of every NHS worker I come into contact with. I know they have the different titles, I just can't keep track of them. I'm not a politician and I'm not a journalist, I'm just a normal person with limited brain capacity who can't remember employment structures and hierarchies for anything I'm not directly involved in. Enjoy your sleep and beer. Have a chinese takeaway too, you deserve it I'm sure :)
