    Sod the NHS. My old dad died in one of their beds and when I went to collect his belongings, dumped into a black bin bag, I discovered that someone had pinched his false teeth. Hardly worn. I'm sure they re-sell them.

    No friends round here . . . just comrades, ex-comrades and apostates. I thought your schtick was that you "knew" the SPGB?

    i think the real answer is that there would be less illness reported and showing up in the statistics and not actually less people sick or ill.
