Having been accused of being ‘virtually anonymous’ by a respondent accusing me of making Twitter arguments (🤷♂️):
I’m a retired hospital pharmacist in Yorkshire. My wife was a GP so we think we have a little insight into health care.
Probably a bit woke.

In 2016 we allowed oligarch run media & Russian stooges convince us to vote to become the first country that imposes economic sanctions on itself, turn our back on our neighbours and run to other foreign powers who are rubbing their hands in delight as they see our negotiating position crumble.
Don’t know who needs to hear this but “taking back control” from a Union you’re a member of, with full voting rights, to hand it to an American lunatic you bent over backwards to flatter yet he publicly humiliates you, is not taking back control at all, it’s relinquishing it.

I wish Labour would also get over the “no return to freedom of movement” rubbish.
Triangulating with Reform wins them nothing & it would be nice, speaking as one of the 48%, to have at least some representation for the first time since 2016.

“Patriotic Farage has blamed the ‘spectacular’ failure of the England team for his decision.”
That’s neither loyalty to the team or his country - if you support something, you do it thru thick & thin, don’t you? Win or lose 🤷🏻♀️
He doesn’t have a patriotic bone in his body imo. It’s all about him.
