Bernie, I worked as a nurse in your country in the early 90s. Never could understand the aversion people have to universal health care. Totally brainwashed population which ingnores the example of health care for all right next door. Nuts! Health Insurance companies are vultures.

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country.
Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right.
The solution: Medicare for All.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.
I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”

Without support, skilled jobs at Alexander Dennis in Falkirk would have been lost.
Today I have announced our £4m furlough scheme for Alexander Dennis, meaning workers can stay in their jobs as orders pick up again.

'Hypocrite' Nigel Farage didn't pay £44k stamp duty then blasted Angela Rayner
Last year Nigel Farage announced he had bought a house in Clacton, Essex, but in fact it was his partner Laure Ferrari, 46, who shelled out almost £900,000 for the property
