Is that you really BSB ?!! ;)

To some extent you’re probably right BSB ! But for a posh boy to get the type of (current !) support from the working class, there must be a something more.....one is undoubtedly he’s not corbyn. Labour should be wiping the floor in recent years If there is more middle/upper class support for...

understand. I was just saying that there are various factors behind the headline, one of which was the GP contract (that is still a factor as practices are still closed evenings and weekends). Other factors could/will be increased population, ageing population, issues with wider social care (not...

Agree, it’s bizarre !!! He’s just one of those characters I guess I think the party situation is more a reflection of where labour currently are to be honest. There is no way the Tories should have that sort of lead across the ‘working class’

agree and that’s also relevant in relation to a lot of areas in ‘real life’....MPs from all persuasions just don’t live in the real world ! cash is not the sole solution for the nhs though SBD. More obviously helps, however, with an ageing population and greater genuine calls on GP practices...

https://www.england.nhs.uk/2019/01/missed-gp-appointmentscosting-nhs-millions/ 15m missed GP appointments....its disgraceful ! people abuse the system because it’s ‘free’. Whilst cutting that out doesn’t solve the problem people have got to start taking personal responsibility.

Don’t think it will be anywhere near that size of majority but interesting/surprising prediction of ‘class’ voting Tories more popular with working class than upper class, poll shows

agree about issues with social care and aging population putting far more stress on nhs/A&E. The GP contract had a significant impact and with hindsight appears to have been a badly negotiated deal the way it was structured (BMA couldn’t believe their luck). not saying that the sole cause of...

They are shit stats but like most stats you also need to scratch beneath the surface a little. After the 2004 GP deal, doctors were no longer required to work out of hours and since then A&E admissions have shot up by millions per annum (as people can’t get to see their doc during the evening...

just saw his stand up on the comedy channel...very good !

Like it Clint...Jim Jefferies is quality, well, if you like brutal humour ! As you say especially earlier sets...got a bit more hit and miss (and preachy) more recently, still like though. Seen him three times live Ricky Gervais, Russell Brand (I know he’s a cock but always liked a lot of his...

Exactly. Two 23 years olds, one of which has just moved to a new country/team ! Fact is both have scored great goals this season and shown glimpses of potential. Just hope the consistency comes

They have a lot of levels reds in their games...not surprised. Reckless from max but ref conned.

I like McCallum and he put in a great ball late on but first 20-25 mins thought he struggled (mason has played well so far this season)

Ps is mason fit ? If so, he should be playing and probably shippers

If we’re playing three at the back we need someone to bring it out and commit a man otherwise we’re always going to be a man short. last five mins picked it up but looked lethargic for most of the half hopefully a better second !

agree with Clint and Tony, Farage is being shown up for what he is...an opportunist. I appreciate that his ideal Brexit might be a ‘clean break’ (although not sure he’s voiced this until recent months !) but hes not accepting that there is no majority for this in the country (or parliament -...

Every doc including the US justice system is frightening !!! think I’ve mentioned Operation Odessa on Netflix before, similar style (amusing) but about drugs cheats in baseball, Screwball

Agree shmmeee, I don’t see the need for lower business taxes for all either (ie for massively profitable businesses) however, I see no issue with, for example, business rate exemptions for SMEs/certain retailers. Whoever is next in government needs to tackle to unfair playing field between multi...

Can’t argue with most of that final para to be fair Shmmeee! Labour needs to ensure it is still encouraging business though...as without them, there isn’t going to be much employment going on !!! ;)
