Nigel Farage: NHS might have to be replaced by private health insurance
 

Isn't this a surprise...

No surpirse at all.

What a wonderful, honourable, trustworthy man

See, I can lie almost as well as him

****ing rat.

Less than a day afterwards and that £320 million NHS funding has turned into talks of abolishment.

Doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Well hopefully he will have no say as to that,he needs to get a lot more MPs to Westminster.

However under the electoral system we have in the UK, he has next to no chance of gaining any substantial numbers of them unless he can get UKIP to near 30% and have both Labour and the Conservatives down to something like 27% each.

The article is from January 2015...he should have no issues now maintaining the NHS with his 350 million a week saving

GREAT Britain

Right guys?


Right?

He has apparently admitted that figure is wrong at last Cherie,so it isn't there for the NHS.
Not that the funds, even if they had been available, are his to decide where they go anyway.

D:

Shocked at this to be honest. I mean I know I shouldn't be, but I am :facepalm:

Did any of you actually read the article? He said this month's ago, and the idea was rejected by the majority of members in his party, he wishes to debate it further with his party so the idea is supported, which is unlikely given they did not support it in the first place.

Plus Farage is not prime minister, nor is UKIP running the country. Not to say the NHS won't be privatised (who knows what will happen), although getting hysterical/worried over something like this is laughable.

Try reading the rest of the thread, hon.

I did.

Also did anyone really believe that £350 million would be placed into the NHS? Anyone with a brain cell could spot from a mile that was a load of campaign BS to persuade people who don't understand things to vote.

...and hey, it worked

This article was from the start of last year and he's since said in an interview that it was an idea that was floated among others and he does'nt hold this opinion now(if he ever did).
Also Farage is not the PM and never will be so i would'nt go panicking.

Edit:Not to mention he said a few times that he will probably stand down as leader in the not too distant future.

He made a promise to do that before and then he pulled some bull**** excuse out of his arse to get out of it. The man's a lying chancer, he won't give up anything until he's forced to.

I don't think he'll see anywhere he can go from here tbh.He won't ever be PM and UKIP won't ever get any power.

I was being facetious Joey, the 350 figure had been debunked several times

In a PR voting system, UKIP would do very well. Last night's vote showed that.

Interesting article. Nigel Farage said that in ten years time we might have to go down the private route to get our health care. Note the word, "Might" in that sentence, well we can all talk about mights..can't we? Also ten years is a long time. I think most people are worried about the near future to be honest and I highly doubt that we will be losing the NHS in ten years, especially with the massive reduction of foreigners coming to live here within that period of time, now that we are leaving the E.U. Just imagine how much more money and beds that would be taken up if we stayed in Europe. Then the NHS would have been in trouble.

Well the advert in the link below, which states, "Let's give our NHS the £350 million the E.U takes out every week", reads to me that it is a suggestion rather than a promise from UKIP.

You are wasting your time Paul. The Farage detractors and embittered 'Remain' losers will ignore any posts - no matter how reasonable, factual. or logical - which does not fit in with their own perspectives.

I could fill a thread on here with the broken promises and U-Turns of the EU, David Cameron, Jeremy Corbyn etc etc, but it would be to no avail. (I know because I have posted many)

If picking on something which Farage said, then twisting it, gives them comfort - let them have that succour.

But Vicky he is Not In Power

Bang On Right
