Election Year or Fear!

I still am of the opinion that services such as gas, water, electricity, buses, trains and the NHS should never, ever be in private hands. There will be those who disagree.

Private hospitals/clinics are not a problem, as far as I am concerned, provided there's sufficient NHS capacity to properly treat the huge % of the populace that can't afford private health care, in a timely fashion.

Totally agree. Watch ‘Dirty Business’ if you can. It’s superbly acted but so shocking. Not just about the state of our rivers and coasts but about the bank driven profiteering that is taking place from what is effectively toxic fly tipping into our waterways.

As you know I have three German based grandchildren. They regularly swim freely in local lakes, rivers and the Baltic Sea (brrrr!). The water is clean. We’d be mad to allow them to do that here on the evidence of this programme. Banks and greed are solely to blame.
