As above (at the risk of sounding tin foil hat) and if we're not, what the hell is going on in the world, what's causing it?

real-term costs have increased

That's called inflation. The £2 billion increase is after rises for inflation.

I take is no one ever taught you basic history? You need to look to where we've been to see where we are going. Placed in a historical context everything seems about right from corbynism to Isis. It all has its origins one can quite quickly understand why it's happening now when you consider demographic and economic factors at play.

from corbynism to Isis

And don't forget the Conservative purge of the poor, sick and aged.

Hmmm. I'm a history graduate and not sure this is true. You couldn't take into account things like the development of the internet when predicting. They're only obvious in hindsight.

How is Jared finding it back at work at Maomentum central? Punched any gays or fucked any 'little slags' yet? Or are you still keeping him in line?

Eltonjohnssyrup · 22/01/2018 10:13

You know, it's really interesting makeourfuture, you turn up like clockwork on a thread when the word 'Labour' or 'Tory' is mentioned. It's almost like you have an alert set up.

How's the unpaid internship at Southside going? Aren't you lucky mummy and daddy can fund you doing that?

First you mocked Jeremy's jumper...and now this...where does it end?

BattleCuntGalactica · 22/01/2018 10:46

My brother used to share this a lot and I had to remove him from my feed for obvious reasons:

Eltonjohn: At least he earned it and didn't slaughter millions to get it like the aristocracy did.

Or like Tony Blair and a Labour government did in Iraq?

Eltonjohnssyrup · 22/01/2018 10:53

And Afghanistan.

I've never said a word about Jeremy's jumper. Only his fucking vests.

Eltonjohnssyrup · 22/01/2018 10:55

And his cap.

I don't think Soros is in league with the neocon crowd.

I have friends in the Air Force who laughed heartily at your DD'a friend's uncle's brother's neighbour, whatever when I sent them the screenshot.

QuackPorridgeBacon · 22/01/2018 11:08

c3pu That’s not true. I had nothing to hide but ended up having plenty of fear. My child was almost taken from me and even when proved it was medical she was on the protection list. Then when I fell pregnant again I was reported. I’m terribly fearful now. However, since having a child with a complex medical condition and having to train to bring her home they seem to leave me alone. Although, one social worker did try to have her also taken from me. I think it’s more twatty workers than conspiracy though. Like I say though, I have social workers now due to medical reasons and they are a help and I’m constantly told how good I am doing etc so the fear is slowly disappearing.

lots of other countries provide better healthcare for less money

Untrue. Not lots by any definition. And nobody beats NHS for efficiency combined with universal coverage.

The NHS is one of the worst healthcare systems in the developed world. It has terrible cancer outcomes.

QuackPorridgeBacon · 22/01/2018 11:35

Cancer outcomes don’t determine the whole of the healthcare system. I think the nhs is pretty good. I couldn’t have afforded for my child to have a heart transplant in a country where you pay for medical care for example.

makeourfuture · 22/01/2018 11:37

Well the Tories just stumble from crisis to crisis now don't they? Everyday it is something new - and awful.

When your mind is so focused on these terrible class issues, punishments, pettiness, greed - you can't improve things can you? It's just not possible.

Falmer · 22/01/2018 11:40

Have to say though Elton, my cancer treatment itself was very quick and successful. The nursing care post op was really bad and also one of the oncologists kept it from us that I had mrsa!

Just as bloody well we're not armed!!! 30,000 people die every year in the USA because of guns.

Knives kill 50,000

105,000 die from medications and 195,000 die a year from hospital errors.

Don’t think guns are the real problem, just easy to blame them.

Falmer · 22/01/2018 11:47

Quack, this is one of the issues I'm concerned about, the fear. We are in fear of the authorities and that's something I never thought I would ever feel in this country. If we'd never had a dc with sen, we'd never have known or believed what the authorities were capable of.

Op, I have had a shit experience/shit experiences with the NHS. It has left me mistrustful of it and disillusioned about it.
However, the whole chemtrails, Prince Phillip murdered Diana, 9/11 was a set up by ... whoever bullshit? I don't waste my energy with that crap. It's an industry I don't wish to buy into.
