Isn't American health insurance slightly cheaper than National Insurance, on average? If NI were slashed it might be worth it.
1) There are almost always costs above and beyond insurance. Insurance adjustments SHOULD stop a random average hospital stay for, let's say, some broken bones costing tens-of-thousands (which is what the bill will be) but usually you'll still be left with a bill of, say $600 at the end.
2) If you're unlucky enough to develop cancer or something you're ****ed. Unlike Universal Healthcare - insurance runs out. If you get a chronic illness in the US you are very, very likely to end up bankrupt unless you're literally a millionaire.
3) N.I. scales with income so people on low incomes don't pay huge sums. In the US if you can only afford very basic health insurance, you're only going to get very basic care. For the wealthy, a very high level of coverage might only cost the same as their current N.I. but for everyone else, no.
4) All of this is moot. They're not going to slash N.I. even if the NHS was completely dismantled because the NHS is tax funded. N.I. contributions are essentially "employment insurance" - they pay contributions-based out of work benefits and pensions. The pensions pot is already dry... they literally cannot cut NI at all.
5) They could in theory take the money saved out of income tax and slash those tax rates, but it's HIGHLY unlikely that they'll ever cut the 20% rate, so again a disproportionate gain for the wealthy in the 40%+ bracket.

if they cancel the votes then the country will genuinely become a war zone, there will be riots and fighting and tbh lack of care
Most brexiters are armchair warriors who will tut and share posts on facebook but ultimately won't do anything. There will be no riots but there may be a spike in Right Wing Terrorism and we ultimately shouldn't let terrorism win by cowering into doing what terrorists want.

Tbh I don't think zero hours contracts should be banned - supply teachers and bank nurses are basically on them, as are other agency workers.
Zero hour contracts are a cancer that only really work for younger people in education but are being applied across the board. It is unsustainable employment for most people.

I will never forgive anyone that voted for brexit or any party that supported it if the NHS goes down because we'll be stuck in a ****ty deal with the US. Go read about the medical costs in the US and be glad that we have the NHS. We should be protecting the NHS at all costs, not pretending that the US model is good just because doing so makes no deal Brexit more of a possibility.
I've never seen a group of people wish harm on themselves as much as brexiters often do.

Tory representatives have already been having meetings with American pharmaceutical companies, it’s not that much of a stretch to believe that the next step is handing parts of the NHS to the US, privatised healthcare will kill millions in this country and it’ll be on the Tories hands.

The problem with the health system in America is not that it has private health services, rather it is nearly-all funded by private insurance that leaves some people without cover.
A lot of European countries, and Canada, for example, have privately-run health services but the difference with America is, that when comes to paying for it, the health insurance is national and compulsory, with people who can't afford it getting it paid for them by the government.

I pity anyone who would 'trust' Boris on issues of the NHS...Or on anything actually.
Donald Trump has claimed Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn would be "so bad" for the UK ahead of the 12 December general election.
Appearing on LBC Radio with host Nigel Farage, the leader of the Brexit Party, the US president also heaped praise on Prime Minister Boris Johnson as a "fantastic guy".
Mr Trump said: "I have great relationships with many of the leaders, including Boris who's a fantastic man - I think he's the exact right guy for the times.
"I know that you and him will end up doing something that could be terrific - if you and he get together it's [an] unstoppable force.
"Corbyn would be so bad for your country, he'd be so bad, he'd take you in such a bad way.
"He'd take you into such bad places. But your country has tremendous potential, it's a great country."

By James Melville.
Boris Johnson has introduced the Conservative Party’s general election slogan: “Britain deserves better”.
This is a slogan that to put it mildly, lacks any self awareness. Considering that the Tories have been in power for the past nine years, the multitude of problems faced by Britain have been largely created by the Tory government
The Tories have used a number of ironic slogans at elections that are the diametric opposite of what is actually happening. Remember Theresa May’s 2017 election slogan ‘strong and stable‘ or that the Tories always claim to be the party of economic competence? It is bogus and massively misleading sloganeering.
Despite slashing public services to reduce the national debt, The Tories have in fact, doubled the national debt from £849 billion in 2010 to £1.8 trillion in 2019. Also, for a large part of the Tory era from 2010-2019, the UK was one of the worst performing economies of the G20, with only Greece suffering larger falls in real wages between 2010 and 2018.
Britain now has almost one third of its entire population living in poverty – an increase of 5 million people since the Conservatives took office in 2010. Britain now has over 1 million people receiving emergency food supplies per year.
Following eight years of funding cuts, the number of NHS trusts in financial difficulty increased from 5% in 2010 to over 60% by 2018 – creating an ongoing NHS crisis. Yet since the Conservatives came to power in 2010, the percentage of the NHS budget going to private healthcare providers has doubled.
On Brexit, this is a Tory psychodrama that has spilled over into a national drama. At the 2015 general election, only 1% of the population thought that Britain’s membership of the EU was the priority issue. Yet here we are in 2019, stuck in a 3 year cycle of division and hatred because the Tories unnecessarily unleashed something that wasn’t a priority or a national concern and then failed to deliver a workable solution to Brexit.
Brexit was instigated by internal Tory ideological rivalries that have rumbled on for three decades and shaped by an identity crisis linked to Britain’s imperial past and confusion about Britain’s future role in the world. David Cameron called the 2016 EU referendum to lance the boil of internal feuds within the Conservative Party, but all that it achieved was to make the boil go septic. Britain is now on its third Tory Prime Minister since the EU referendum and still no one really knows what Brexit means and how Brexit can be delivered. All we have is endless jingoism, empty rhetoric and promises that are not delivered.
The Tories like to think of themselves as the born-to-rule party and a ruthless pursuit of power. But that’s all they are concerned about. During their stints in power from 1979 onwards, they have dismantled our industrial heartlands, destroyed hope and prosperity in communities, increased poverty levels, asset stripped our public services and infrastructures and ratcheted up our national debt. Yet, they find ways (through the right-wing media) of manipulating millions of people into voting for them by projecting blame onto the EU or immigrants for problems that they themselves created. Tories say to nurses enduring a 7 year pay freeze that there is “no magic money tree” but still find a forest full of money to lob the DUP £1 billion to keep them in power.
So when we all vote at the general election on December 12th, we need to remember this: Britain does deserve better. Britain deserves better than the Tories.

Bojo is carrying on lying
Among the untruths, top of the list was the false claim that Johnson’s Brexit deal has “passed” parliament when MPs simply voted at second reading to allow it to proceed for further scrutiny. Other claims include the idea that there will be “no checks between Northern Ireland and Great Britain”, when the government has admitted that businesses will have to fill in forms.
He said another lie was the claim that an extension to article 50 would cost
a £1bn a month, when money has to be paid to the EU anyway during the transition period and the costs of no-deal Brexit would be higher.

...sadly, I think that Brexit is going to be at the fore front of voting decisions...and NHS concerns will not factor so much for many...
i think the observation that social media is giving voice to the extremes and giving them too much attention is correct. A moderate message is just not news worthy any more. What a sad state of affairs
...well I guess that it could be said that we screwed the younger generation over in the referendum...we had the nice things but they can’t have them...so now they’re going to get their revenge and screw us over by taking away the NHS...all’s fair in politics I guess...

Considering the fact the tories have decimated the NHS and all public services in their 9 years in power, and voters like yourself don't believe it's enough of an issue to hold them to account, how difficult do you think it would be for them to do anything they like without tory voters even caring?
When Brexit happens with Johnsons deal, we'll then face 5-10 years of European trade negotiations. The economy will shrink, and people will lose their jobs.
BJ will be desperate to provide some good news, so a trade deal with the US will be the only way for him to do this. The US won't do a deal with us unless they get access to our crown jewel. They've already started selling it off and who exactly is rioting about it? By the time people finally wake up, it will be too late.

I dont believe the NHS will be sold Slim, Now i know you'll say they are liars,but aren't they all ? so people will go with who they think will do the best for the country and at this point although they are all dodgy, I think Boris Johnson will at least keep the NHS , afterall ,could you imagine the backlash the Tories would get if they did that, even by their own supporters

That's fine, but the tories have already sold bits of it off, so you can chose to believe it or not, but the facts just don't lie.
Boris Johnson has been part of the party that has destroyed the NHS. It's not immigrants that have done the damage, it's austerity. It's a free country, and you're free to vote anyway you like, but not sure I understand the logic in trusting the party that decimated the NHS with a few more years to finish the job.

i keep having to say this, but i will say it again as so many seem to ignore it. It was labour that has privatised the NHS the most under Tony Blair. The NHS couldn't function unless it contracted out many of its services.
Also, the NHS uses generic drugs where possible, so they are out of patent by the major drugs companies when the NHS buys drugs. Also, the pharmaceutical companies have a world wide presence already. They are the same ones in the UK as they are in the USA. Drug prices are set by geographical region, not by trade deals. Look at Canada as a prime example, it has a trade deal with the USA but its drug prices are significantly lower than in the USA because it is a different drug pricing region.
Those are the facts. American companies can already tender for NHS work in areas that are contracted out. It stuns me how much misinformation there is out there regarding the NHS

Don’t let the truth get in the way of the propaganda bots.
No secret about the meetings between Britain and the US drug companies, we managed a better deal for the Systic Fibrosis drug than Scotland did in the end.

Fresh evidence has also emerged of attempts by the Kremlin to infiltrate the Conservatives by a senior Russian diplomat suspected of espionage, who spent five years in London cultivating leading Tories including Johnson himself.

Surely it's worth pointing out that most full-time 9-5 jobs only pay 35 hours (sometimes 37.5 hrs) already? Hardly anywhere pays lunch break these days so 8 hour days x 5 days rarely pay 40 hours...
I wonder if the idea of a 32 hour work week is based on 4 days 9-5 but making the lunch break paid?
I personally think unpaid breaks are ridiculous in many ways anyway, everyone working a full day should be entitled to a PAID break.
As things stand though, I can't see how a 4 day working week translates to 32 hours. It would be 28 hours or 30 hours, depending on if lunch break is 30 mins or an hour.

Conservative candidates in the general election will be told not to sign up to specific pledges on protecting the NHS from privatisation and trade deals or tackling climate change, according to a leaked internal document from party headquarters.
The 11-page briefing note explains the party’s position on nine key areas and “strongly advises” prospective Tory MPs “against signing up to any pledges” unless they have been agreed from the centre.
However, supporting shooting is allowed “as an important part of rural life”, the document says.

I’m not quite sure why people think Kay would purposely risk her reputation and career to make up a story about a politician skipping on a booked interview? Makes zero sense

One of them is obviously lying, but they've both backed themselves into a corner now so it will be impossible for the other to own up to it. I doubt KB and JC would have discussed it themselves in person, so there should be a paper trail/phone call with a producer/text msg confirming it which I hope she is able to produce in her article.

She said during the segment that he apparently agreed to appear over text so if that’s the case, he’ll be well and truly done over

Bet Burley is right. Cons are liars so it makes sense
Well I suspect that the truth is between the two stories - he told Kay he'd appear but it wasn't part of the official media round and he skipped it either due to lack of time or because his interviews weren't going that well. I saw him on GMB and it was a bad interview for him but it did also overrun significantly which obviously impedes on his ability to do other interviews and so it makes sense to prioritise the ones that were booked officially first
Anyway - Tom Watson stepping down

That scenario is very possible, he’s a busy man, I think it’s more likely though that he chose to skip it to go for the softball interview on familiar ground after a disastrous morning
I'm looking forward to more gems from Ms Abbott, they are the highlight of the election for me
