"While parties like Reform UK called for mass privatization and the adoption of a single-payer healthcare similar to that of the United States".

They want to introduce the most failed healthcare system in the developed world. Wow.

UK and Norway won nature's lottery in 1970 - found oil/gas in the North Sea.

UK squandered wealth, appeased corporations.

Norway levied 78% tax, took direct stake in companies.

Norway now has $1.8 trillion sovereign fund. UK has public finance crisis.

UK Govts still appeasing corporations/rich.

Launched in the early 1990s to invest mostly in bonds, the fund has grown to become the largest of its kind by acquiring small equity stakes in thousands of companies across the world.

National Insurance Dodge

UK employers pay national insurance on employee/director wages.

That doesn't apply to profits (instead of wages) extracted by partners in partnerships.

Billions dodged. I asked the Minister whether that policy was wrong.

Watch how he dodges the question.

They want to take away our BBC.

They want to take away our NHS.

They want to take away our human rights.

They want to take away everything we have that makes life worth living.

All for their own greedy enrichment.

The f***ing far right, led by Trump and Farage, Badenoch and the rest.

If Trump feels his reputation is being affected, why not shut up instead of drawing further attention. People died in the attack on the Capitol , but all the rioters received a blank pardon: is any further evidence needed? The level of hypocrisy is stunning: trying to silence any critics anywhere.

The BBC belongs to Britain, not Trump, Farage or their cheerleaders at GB News.

Keir Starmer needs to stand up to Trump and defend our BBC, to keep it strong and truly independent.

Shouldn’t have apologised.

We need to Reform-proof the BBC. And Israel-proof it. And proof it against dubiously funded, so-called think tanks. And stop it "both siding" issues with science on one side and conspiracy theories on the other.

Shouldn't the BBC do what Trump does? Ignore or deny the charge. Defend itself with crappy lawyers.If prosecuted, don't pay any fine and appeal ad nauseam until it goes to the SC.
He'll probably be dead, or in prison himself by the time most of this happens.

BBC has a case against Trump. WhiteHouse Chief Press Officer called the BBC ‘100% fake news.’ Which is defamatory and untrue.

Seems that Trump demanded that heads must roll. The supine UK Government thought that getting the BBC Head of News to resign would suffice but Trump wanted more, so the Director General had to go too.

Of course, if you give a mobster what they ask for, they just come back for more...

Of course she has. The small matter of owing £122 million to UK taxpayers for her disgusting profiteering in a global pandemic means nothing to Michelle Mone.

NHS staff died in my hospital from the Covid they caught there - her dodgy PPE racket was vile.
