Without anything in place to replace it, it does seem spectacularly short termist to be cancelling this scheme and claiming doing so is to help cut energy bills.

“Are we actually going to build houses for people to live in and enjoy? Are they going to be affordable, and are they going to be safe?”

I'm appalled reading this thread. I'm so sorry that everyday Americans are facing this worry. Reform voters in the UK haven't a clue Farage wants an insurance based system for the UK. We have a lot to be thankful for with our NHS.

My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

🧵This 58-year-old nurse from Maryland is seen being violently dragged along the ground by officials in Ghana.

Trump deported her there.

This abhorrent & disgusting abuse of a woman who saved American lives and cared for injured and ill Americans for 30 years.

All the details below are worse.
