They'd rather vote for a lying, multi-millionaire, property magnate and renowned champagne socialist than a sad 1970's political throwback. Not much of a choice though. |

The Royal College of Nursing are voting on strike action, something they have never even contemplated before, I suggest they choose June 8th for a day of action. It'll be interesting to see whether the Govt. can persuade the public, that the nurses are the same as militant miners. |

How many jobs and investment will that cost? This isn't "free" money and you can bet prices will soar to cover it. |

PFI provided them the last opportunity to rack up a vast amount of debt and look what the supposed anti-privatisation party did with that. Their cynical spending splurge is going to cost us dear for decades. |

tbh the public also aren't really honest on taxes. They say they want increases funding for the NHS etc, but then vote for parties giving them tax cuts... |

I think people are getting fed up with people who are constantly advocating that we keep tipping barrowloads of extra money into the NHS, which badly needs to go on an efficiency drive. Most people also don't want to see the NHS dismantled, and that includes the Conservative Government, which is putting more money into the NHS than Labour was prepared to do after the 2010 election. The constant bleating by left wingers that the NHS is safer under Labour is manifestly untrue, a fact that more people, at last, are beginning to realise now. Brexit will eventually enable us to control immigration, and in my view, this should be coupled with inducements for those with the means to use private health providers instead of the NHS in order to reduce demand. That, together with better control over who gets to be treated at A&E and extended hours for surgeries should help hospitals to cope better, but much more needs to be done to make the service run more efficiently. Labour controlled councils that fail to work with hospitals to avoid bed blocking should be ashamed of themselves. The Government needs to do something to incentivise them! ---------- Post added at 17:18 ---------- Previous post was at 17:10 ---------- Quote:

Re: June 8th General Election
Also remember that V.A.T rises were required by the EU to establish an EU wide rate so not just down to our poor quality politicians.

Re: June 8th General Election
It is an EU policy and goal and our politicians have been the ones implementing it whilst other nations have ignored it and done whats best for them it's one of the minor reasons why I'll be happy to the back of the EU.
