The NHS has been ideologically attacked, carved up into regions & subjected to stealth privatisation. PFI has been a crushing disaster. We cannot let it continue to be systematically underfunded & damaged further - it is the best investment in the future of this country that we can possibly make.

UK media. Ask Labour about the Chinese, don't ask Farage about Russian bribes, or mysterious bankrolling of Leave. If you do minimise it, laugh it off. Repeat the process for Russian money swilling through the Tory party. The majority of the British media stinks. It's as bent as a corkscrew.
