I'll point out a hypocrisy no one is talking about.

Private Doctors in the UK are being paid 20-30% more for doing the same job as NHS doctors

The NHS is sending more and more patients every year to these Private Doctors and there are company profits on top as well

Do you see?

Labour under Starmer is not the party of organised labour! It is a right of centre, Zionist, neoliberal continuity party. Starmer, Streeting and Lammy don't have a socialist bone in their bodies! Maybe it's the only way their oligarch paymasters would tolerate a nominal Labour government!

I will just point out the Doctors have asked for a maximum of £800m, that's for 71,000 doctors who run all the hospitals.

That's 'too expensive'.

But when the Water Companies asked for £5bn, they were given it.

Broken Britain, money for thieves, no money for you.

I was talking to a friend about my post on Donald Trump, and his attack on European civilisation, made earlier today. The thought that kept recurring was this: why are none of our political leaders standing up and telling Donald Trump where he can get off? If I am right in...

People have had enough of Labour.

They can change leader but the problem is the hundreds of corporate lobbyists who are Labour MPs.

More and more people joining the Green Party every day!

The problem is, as long as they're alright, most people don't care.

They probably can't be bothered finding out and they don't care.

The thing about Publicly provided services is sure they are cheaper, and sure it is better quality.

But you don't get kickbacks like when you handout Private Contracts.

Anyone thinking that voting British Labour (there is no Scottish Labour party) was all about change, Need to give their heads a wobble.
They are a mirror image of their Tory counterparts who refuse to stand up for Scotland.
Their ineffectivness will allow Reform a platform in Scotland.

Private equity curse.

Company on Burnley bought by PE to cut staff by 90%. Loyalty counts for nothing.

Typical PE business model - cut staff/wages, high debt, asset stripping, price hikes, sweat assets, profit shifting, tax abuse, extract high returns, move on to the next victim.

The move comes amid reports of issues with maintaining credit insurance just a month after the completion of a sale to private equity buyer Aurelius.

Almost daily someone wants to tell me that I should mind my own business and stay out of US "politics". So almost daily I have to remind them that Trumpism affects global economics, environment and peace. I'll do what every concerned global citizen should do. I'll express my opinion. Loudly.
