PFI is a rip off and should never be repeated.
“Most households wouldn’t take out loans on terms like this, so why did the public sector?”
Tell Wes Streeting - ‘No new PFI in our NHS’.

Here's me about mooted Crown Post Office closures and the failure to cherish the materiality of public services. theconversation.com/the-post-off...

Nearly another month in hospital with pneumonia. Huge love for the staff here. Good the Tories' poison grip will finally be prised off the NHS soon. Should be the market next, but that's not on the table thanks to Wes S and the working class hand puppet he's ventriloquising with.
