Let me get this right. A known con man is saying he's going to build hospitals that will keep people alive forever, but he's not going to let them be purely for the elite. Out of the goodness of his heart, anyone (with enough money) will be able to use them.
What could go wrong?
This is good (for once). Farage has to stay front & centre for almost 4 more years & I donβt see how he can without edging ever closer to the National Front credo thatβs always animated him. For now, Starmer must wait until heβs *blatantly* racist before using the term. Otherwise it loses power 1/2

"At what point does Starmer no longer cling to the fiction that the interests of Britain and the US are always aligned?"
For the first time in history, could the US become a "strategic adversary" to the UK?

One look at the impact involving the private sector has had on the NHS will make any sane person realise it is the private sector that is doing the bloodsucking rather than the public. But, hey, the torygraph never lets facts get in the way of promoting its agenda.

It's classic scapegoating and deflection. Get folks to hate drag queens, migrants, lgbt folks, single mothers, the disabled. They can be blamed for the working folks' troubles. Neatly deflecting attention away from the most wealthy as they rape the country of its remaining middle class wealth.
