I just wondered if Diane standing down as Home Secretary has affected the way you would vote.
I know several people have said they wouldn't vote labour with the prospect of her being Home Secretary

And as for living in a big house: what should she do with her money? I know if I had a decent job, I'd buy the biggest house I could.

Re the Finnish nurses I feel that anyone would have been hauled over the coals for that comment.

It's not so much the size of the house, I guess but the elitist aspect of it being in a gated development. I used to live near her and it was quite a posh set up.

Flowers for Radishal. Sorry to hear your story - impressed that politics is exercising you so much that you have shared it for the first time ever!

"White, blue-eyed Finnish nurses should not look after black patients)"

She didn't say that. She said that there were qualified nurses from the Caribbean who understood British society who would be more likely to be committed to staying in the country long term than young Finnish nurses coming to improve their English. But there is nothing some British people like better than the opportunity to call a black person racist.....
