Come out, come out wherever you are!
I know it will mean you will be attacked and preached at, you will be told you are rich, uncaring and hate everyone except yourself, but will anyone stand with me and admit to planning on voting Conservative on June 8?
I can't be the only one surely? I didn't vote the Conservatives in by myself in 2015!

In the short term we need to be competitive with places like Ireland.

Corporation tax is a strange one because you can reduce it but make more money.

When labour were chucking money at the NHS it wasn't being spent on equipment, staff nurses, HCA, junior doctors…

… it was spent on things like "modern matrons" which were based on the vague nostalic idea that since some things were better back when matrons ruled the roost, ergo the NHS would go back to the "good old days" if we just give a bunch of people the job title (and generous salary) of matron! Bingo! That'll do the trick!

So they promoted a heap of ward sisters to "modern matron". Nobody knew what the fuck the role was as the hierarchy that old style matrons fitted into didn't exist any more. It basically took senior nursing staff away from patients with very little initial guidance about what else they should do except for pounding the corridoors picking people up on things like cleanliness etc….

Over the years since "matron" title roles have evolved into something more useful. It was a joke at the time though

But hey VOTE LABOUR They'll "invest" in the NHS. Oh yeah and under labour the nurses got a "pay rise" that was actually a real terms pay CUT!

But if you don't vote labour you don't give a fuck about the NHS right?

Can we have a teacher as Education Secretary and a doctor as Health Secretary?

TessTube · 10/05/2017 20:56

Now that would be sensible!

TessTube · 10/05/2017 20:57

I would like Vince Cable too? Any chance?

He's nice and normal and has fair ideas.

TessTube · 10/05/2017 21:12

I don't hate him. I just don't rate him.

BOOM I'm a poet.

mstumble · 10/05/2017 21:17

I'll admit he's a terrible public speaker but he's honest and trustworthy. Tereasa May couldn't be any less human in her delivery.

I think he's an elitist and a snob
Just not the money kinda snobbery, more akin to academic/idiology snobbery. He has no time for anyone outside his set

kirinm The IFS said it could raise money to help fund education plans for schools in the short term in the long term will dent the economy

But now they are scraping tuition fees and renationalising the railways

I am waiting for my salary to be doubled and I would like to retire at 50 I don't think that is too much to ask for Jeremy to promise
