This is obviously the right decision.
It should spark a wider conversation about social media platforms. We clearly can't - and shouldn't - just rely on the responsibility of the owners.

Just back from local hospital for a routine ultrasound screening.
Appointment at 13.40, told it would take 20 minutes.
Called in on time and out by 13.58. I wouldn't fault a single aspect of the treatment.
Many parts of our NHS still operate incredibly well.
Would have been billed $450 in the US.
