US-style healthcare would be a disaster for our NHS patients – so don’t vote for it | Ameen KamlanaDo we in Britain still want a socialised system, or one that puts a price on good health, asks Ameen Kamlana No one is voting for it though are they? It’s just a ploy to make the Tories seem even more sinister than a terrorist supporting anti-Semite. It’s not working. I tore a tendon in my foot last month. Had an MRI, met with an orthopedic surgeon and have been through several weeks of PT already. I’d be on a waiting list for months to see a specialist if I was on the British system. But at least it’s “free”, right? 💁🏼‍♂️ If the Guardian says it's a disaster then ......... It gets my vote!

Jeremy Corbyn attacks ‘establishment elite’ as he tries to shrug off Labour’s poll deficitNHS at heart of party's battle for the general election Brexit is dumb. Stay in the EU. Hold a do-over vote. The Establishment Elite prefer the status quo, because they believe in hierarchy. The oligarchs at the top, the political/media/managerial establishment running things and everyone else is a debtserf with no chance of social progress. The elitism goes across numerous parties. Being second in a poll tells little, as recent elections have shown.
