"The £4.1bn bill for the 1,307 brain-damaged babies is further evidence of the growing crisis of poor care being provided across many NHS childbirth services. Almost two-thirds of maternity units in England are unsafe, according to the Care Quality Commission, the independent health regulator. Maternity care overall is getting worse, the CQC has warned.”
Their is a reason the Torys are doing this. The Tories are getting paid by big pharma and healthcare companies to run the NHS into ground. They will replace it with the same system we have in the US. Expensive as hell. And pushing people into poverty. Everything you hear that is wrong with a single payer system is just Madison Av. BS coming from bloated pharma and HCA or Healthcare Corporation of America.
400 years of suffering and you think some bald bitch can change our minds in a heartbeat? You see how racist that is, right? It insinuates we have no minds, that we’re fucking stupid ns.
We are not going to see positive change in this country until the white baby-boomer generation has declined in the population.
Am I cynical? Yes. And I wish it was not this way. Most of the Republicans I know are more interested in seeing somebody else fail instead of good governance. They want to see gotchas and what-abouts. 😕

You mean the people who try to monetize our attention span? Yeah, they have been trying to screw us since Cross Fire was on CNN and A Current Affair went into syndication. Nobody would have cared who Amy Fischer was before that.

I am thinking we need some anti trust law suits for the American media system. They have made more than enough money and they are failing in their obligations to America. Google, Meta, News Corp, X. If they want to use lies to make money then we don't need them.

In response to racism=money... Their are many racists in trailer parks. Too many to count. Their is not a lot of money in trailer parks.
But I see your point of how racist use the division to enrich themselves.
I lived in Wichita, KS for 9 years. A lot this shit is a few racists with too much money.
Yes, I am talking about the Koch family. Now you could say it is also being fed by an Australian racist with too much money. Or a South African racist with too much money.
So, I will simplify and say it is white racists with too much money. If they can spend all this money to bribe Congressmen and interfere in elections then they are under taxed.
I am past tired of news media assuming good intentions from bad people.
I lost my temper the other when I heard someone on NPR use the term "culture war." It is not a culture war. It a group of bigots looking for a way to make bigotry socially acceptable.
I have a walking disability. People claim I was playing "the disability card" for criticizing the shit bag that became the 45th president. That is when I lost all respect for any person in America that called themselves conservative or Republican.
Something, I don't get is the headlines saying Biden and 45 are close in the polls. How?
Is the polling source that skewed? 538 got 2016 completely wrong. Fox "news" and Carl Rove got into a public pissing contest about polling data. And Rove works for Fox "news".
Meanwhile, the Republicans want a guy in the White House that told people they inject bleach into their body to fight COVID-19.
I never thought we had this many stupid people in America.
BTW if you point that out to supporters of 45, they will tell you that, "You're being one sided." 🤦🏻
This photograph immortalizes a WW2 British soldier who carries a donkey on his shoulders, probably exhausted from the march and the weight carried, or wounded. An image that represents the sense of friendship that was created during the atrocities of war.
Now the UK and US terrorize their own people to protect a new ethnostate that acts exactly like Nazis.
And the Germans are arresting Jews again. Non-Zionist Jews.
@RustyBertrand
Before the declaration of war against Germany, the US had and has a problem with fascism. The obvious one was the KKK. But not as well known, Germany sponsored many pro fascism rallies in the prelude to WW2. Those rallies were well attended.

I know. I could have looked up this information myself. It seems that all these people involved with Jan. 6 seem to get a pass. Light sentences. Trail delays.
@glynmoody
I suspect that under funding if the NHS was a contributing cause.
Their seems to be a movement in Britain to remake healthcare into the American system. The things corporations do to get filthy rich.
@StillIRise1963
Well, instead of using teachable moments to teach ethics and morals, we use teachable moments to explain how we can exploit a situation.
