O/T:- The NHS strike - for or against?

[Magpies1959]

Elite_Pie it is not a lie or something I have made up. It came from striking workers in several interviews. Please do not call me a liar, or a fantasist.
To say that it is only Sunak and his Tory mates that will never face health problems caused by their management of the NHS is ridiculous. Labour and politicians from all the other parties will not face health problems the majority of the population do, due to their wages and status. Do not think a Labour government is going to be answer to the NHS's problems.
From personal experience, I would not say the NHS is not bursting at the seams in every department, some areas seem to be crying out for people to treat to keep busy. Like I have said previously along with many others, the whole organisation needs a massive overhaul.

You are a liar, a fantasist, or both. This is what you said:

"This dispute started as a cry for more pay to stop them using food banks".

That is a blatant lie, and I'm sure you know it. You either made it up or are parroting right wing propaganda. The dispute started because the NHS workers have been pushed over the edge by several years of neglect. Talk of it being to stop them using food banks is plain stupid just because one or two of them may have mentioned it in an interview. Surely you're not that gullible?

"as support for the strike is not so popular now, they are chirping about it now being all about staffing levels and not being able to look after patients in the way they would like".

Another outright lie. Right from the start this has been about staffing levels and patient care just as much as about money.

To say that it is only Sunak and his Tory mates that will never face health problems caused by their management of the NHS is ridiculous.

Except that I didn't say it. It's something else you've made up.

I said "As sid pointed out, Sunak and his party (and the opposition too) are in a position where waiting lists and substandard care will never be a problem to them".
