I don’t think the electorate will accept it blindly. If the NHS is gobbling all this money and it’s months/years to get the procedures/checks people need, they probably would prefer it if we moved to an insurance based system. In my experience, the people most likely to be anti-privatisation...

More taxes? Yippee! That won’t exacerbate the situation with record amounts of millionaires leaving the country or an increasing tax burden on companies. The criticism that we’re a healthcare system with a country attached becomes truer by the day. The NHS budget is forecasted to be around...

Either outcome is shocking really. 1) Lucy Letby is actually guilty and the nurses demanded suspicious doctors apologise to her. OR 2) Not guilty and the ward was that bad and that many babies died that there were suspicions of a serial killer… complete failure.

If we score the first goal, we’ll win. If we concede first we’ll probably draw. That’s been more or less the story of our season so far and the turnaround in form has correlated well with us scoring the first goal in games. I find it hard to believe that Stoke will magically get more fired up...

Well yeah because working conditions in the NHS are that bad, qualified people go abroad to earn more and better conditions in, ironically, privatised healthcare systems. This is why we’re in a position that we import many of our healthcare professionals from abroad. I’d like to see the tax...

If the government sees the private sector as the solution to shortages, it’s got to be much more intelligent with its policy making. If the NHS outsources NHS patients, it will just drive up the costs. As a short term measure, sure… the private sector in this country isn’t large enough to cope...

Farke has a 100% record, including beating us. So I’m going to vote Farke just to make sure… 👀

We were run ‘reasonably’ well in L1 and L2 which allowed them to offload the club. Had they started lower down the pyramid, they may have been decent owners. They definitely bit off more than they could chew owning a Championship club with Premiership heritage and expectations to return...

Eccles had a pretty rough game v Oxford so can definitely see Sheaf returning to the starting 11. Allen is a bit more suited to AM than Eccles imo.

I’d like to see an initiative where STHs can ‘exchange’ their ST seat for a discounted hospitality rate for a one off game. Say, a £10-15 discount the club gets to resell the ticket for £25+. I did hospitality v Ipswich and considered doing one of the home games but because I’ve got my ST, it...

I’m surprised McConnell has only just announced he’ll retire at the end of his term. Wasn’t there a Republican congresswoman who was elected last year and they were found to be living in a nursing home. There’s plenty more examples on both sides of the aisle. A big problem the Democrats party...

His high point was 2016, ironically around the time he was interviewed on the Joe Rogan podcast. Trump and Sanders were popular figures for the same reasons, they were both in favour of radical changes. The difference is, Trump actually conquered the Republican Party two times. I do wonder if...

There’s a reason they all lost, they weren’t good candidates. Well, Sanders was arguably a victim of a corrupt Democrat primary process.

Both. These kind of investment deals get US companies involved in mining and more often than not, bring over US workers. A lot Chinese firms engaged in mining and infrastructure projects bring their own workforces all over the globe and most notably in Africa, e.g. Ghana. The workers get paid...

You haven’t watched the whole press conference. For 40 minutes it was cordial and Trump brushed off a couple of things that could’ve been interpreted as antagonistic. Then Zelenskyy and Vance had a spat that went out of control. Vance definitely threw some hand grenades that escalated the...

I had no idea why there was applause at Sheffield Wednesday before the goal. It’s ridiculous that there’s a genuine expectation on their end that we’d kick the ball out, stop the game and applause a random person who died. This was a nice trend to begin but has got a bit much now. If it’s that...

Have you considered the possibility that the Ukrainian front line could collapse and they’d have to give up more territorial concessions? Whatever issues Russia has, such as manpower, Ukraine is unfortunately in a worse state. Zelenskyy has made a huge blunder in alienating Trump in the Oval...

No, I don’t think Hamer would have much re-sale value either. Only way I think it would happen, if we still have a sell-on %, it would be worth looking if we can get a discount.

3-1 to us and Robins gets sacked the day after. A win this weekend and midweek against Derby will really consolidate our position.

Wilson played roughly the same amount of games as Collins last season and was significantly worse, believe it not. In 22/23, for his faults, he was in the top 7 of GKs.
