If only everyone had just kept quiet about it, as everyone in Westminster knew about it anyway. :wink:

Here's what has already happened.
Legislation has been passed allowing the NHS to be sold off.
Here's what will happen.
Despite the increased tax and NI (which won't be spent on the NHS as we know it) the torys will say that with great reluctance, despite our best efforts (and all your money) it is impossible for the NHS to remain solely funded by the public purse.
To start with there will be a hybrid model (NHS type plus insurance) as seen in some European countries but over time the full USA model will be here in the UK.
There's money to be made from poor peoples illness. It's only right and proper that very wealthy people become even more wealthy on the back of the majority of peoples misery.
When it happens we’ll be told this isn’t privatisation and people will believe them. It’s likely that we’ll be told that paying for docs appointments is to stop foreigners abusing our amazing NHS. And we’ll all cheer. Or at least enough of us to make sure it happens.

Sunaks wife to pay millions in tax so that her husband can keep his £150,000 pa job!
Obviously nothing untoward going on here.
That's how ridiculous things have become in the Uk amongst the Tory elite.
Some people (even posters on here) can see nowt wrong in the sheer hypocrisy and low morals of leeches like Sunak and his wife.
Standards at Westminster are at their lowest in my lifetime 😞
GGTTH
so, the vertically challenged Sunak and tax avoiding wife have moved their belongings out of downing street, pity their corrupt neighbours aren't doing the same.
Rishi Sunak moves out of Downing Street as family face scrutiny over financial affairs - LBC
Removals vans were spotted at Number 11 on Saturday as the family packed up their belongings and headed for their newly-refurbished, luxury pad in Kensington.
All this debate about the Sunaks’ financial shenanigans has, as far as they are concerned, conveniently taken the spotlight off the earlier divulgence that the company her fortune is invested in, is actively operating in Moscow. Her father, who founded the company, apparently is/was a supporter/friend/admirer of Putin. I find that more repulsive than the tax issue.
This is exactly the point. The media are absolutely complicit in distraction. They distracted us initially by this weird narrative about ‘how committed are the couple really to the U.K.? Aren’t they going to move abroad?’ As if that were the main issue :sick:
Boris is winning the battle with Sunak. Leaks obviously coming from #10 to discredit Sunak and his man of the people narrative, then Boris charges off to Ukraine to get Zelensky to praise him to the hilt for ‘sending’ (‘selling’, they’re not for free) Ukraine lots of shiny weapons.
Loads to criticise Johnson for but supplying weapons to Ukraine isn’t one of them. Funding weapons purchases isn’t the problem for Ukraine, it’s getting the sales approved by timid NATO govts that is. Johnson doing better than most on this.

Ironically this is a classic example of distraction. I’m not criticising the action, I’m criticising the portrayal as some sort of humanitarian move. It’s not. It’s about sales. And Germany has received 300,000 Ukrainians and put them straight into their generous welfare system, i know which country is doing more for Ukrainians and it’s not the U.K. (although saying that, if we DID welcome Ukrainian refugees and gave them access to our pitiful welfare system they’d all be begging on the streets within days.
There's been zero suggestion on the news that we are selling weapons to Ukraine.
How are you so certain that we aren't, for once, just doing the right thing, because it's the right thing?!!
They are not selling weapons to Ukraine its military aid and has clearly been stated as that, they also put £500 million into the rebuild fund
We should be having much more refugees. Mainly because it's the right thing to do but also. But also immigrants give more in taxes than they take in benefits. The are a net benefit to the nation, but tories have been blinded by this. Ukranian immigrants are young, which sways that further

…meanwhile there will be Ukrainians who were sent to Home Office processing centres near the Polish border who are now dead because they were lied to about whether their claims could be processed or not. Because Priti has an actual policy of Hostile Environment for refugees. That’s the actual policy. So forgive me if I don’t get on board the U.K. Govt Are Having A Good War bandwagon.
Why is this guy still in a job?
He lumbers the cost of everything onto the ordinary tax payer but has rewarded those who already have more than enough in every budget

Are you absolutely sure that 300 000 refugees mainly made up of woman and children and some men over 60 who don't speak the local language are going to be an instant boost to the German economy or does it just fit your constant narrative that only Boris has it right and everyone else is only acting out of self interest?
Yes the younger the better. Immigrants are great for nations which is pretty much the opposite of what boris Patel and the ***** in the tory party believes. The tories have it wrong constantly. You have to be fair or you look like a loon and are fodder for the right.
Right wing commentators are loving people saying boris is a Russian stooge, as it makes the person saying it look daft. When that person then says of the millions of real tory mistakes they get laughed away.
Praise the uk military support or don't mention it. The headline isn't Ukraine its the fact 400,000 more people will be in poverty this year due to tory benefit cuts. The truth is bad enough
Most of these refugees will likely return to the Ukraine before they pay any kind of taxes into the German system. They've fled Ukraine for their lives, not to make a new one in sunlit uplands. Until then they have to be fed, clothed and accommodated.
The EU has opened it's doors to all of them, the UK has said you can come, but only once you've climbed this greasy pole using only one arm.

I read an article in ny Times saying whether it's Syrians, Albanians or Bangladeshis fleeing war, the vast majority stay. The longer it goes on the higher the % and the younger they are the higher likelihood. Hopefully it end soon so the can return and their city isn't destroyed.
Uk finds it hard to change the system because its set up not to let immigrants in. They should let all immigrants I , we are a aging nation and pensions don't pay themselves.

The average age in UK is less than nearly all EU states.

After (sort of) defending Mrs Sunak of her absolute right to legally pay as little tax as possible to the country that supplies her with the house she lives in i now find out that she was part owner of Lava Mayfair Club Ltd (a private membership Gym), which collapsed last year owing almost £44million to creditors, including £374,000 to HMRC.
Another venture, education firm Mrs Wordsmith, went into administration last year owing £16.3million – after receiving a £1.3million loan from the Government's Future Fund.
IT GETS WORSE ... Digme Fitness which she owns 100% of received up to £635,000 of furlough money before it closed its eight studios in London and Oxford still owing HMRC £415,000.
So .... Mr Sunak introduces the furlough scheme ... and the woman he's sleeping with benefits by up to £635,000.
Mr Sunak oversees the rules regarding non-Dom status ... and the woman he's sleeping with benefits by over £20 million
Mr Sunak is supposed to be in charge of ensuring that the UK maximises its tax take ... yet the woman he's sleeping with has overseen companies going bust owing £789,000 to HMRC
Mr Sunak says his wife's tax affairs are none of our business !!
The kind of criticism that Tory MPs have been lining up to describe as "unpleasant". Charles Walker was on the radio pointing out that some of these reports have described the big dwarf's squeeze as "Murty" rather than "Mrs Sunak" :shocked: but what they want us to understand by "unpleasant" is "racist". FFS.
Deflection deflection deflection. It’s all they do.
I never thought I’d look back fondly on Theresa May. But she seems a pillar of responsibility compared to this gang of thieves, that still have lots of public support, bizarrely.

I always found this Tory git an especially arrogant type and this sums him up https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-61064965
There is not much that leaves me slack jawed nowadays but his performance at the Grenfell Tower inquiry was shocking. First telling them he was busy and had moved stuff around to be there and to use their time with him carefully, which after the next recess he had to come back and apologise for, then mixing the number of dead up with the Hillsborough dead and calling them nameless?!!? When every person who died in Grenfell is known. His apologies were written for him and were insincere, he is an odious man, he is entitled and as you say arrogant beyond belief.
- Conservative MP for 25 years
- Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government (was Secretary of State for Housing)
- Chairman of the Conservative Party
- UK Anti-Corruption Champion
- UK Special Envoy for post-holocaust issues

- Life Peer
As you say, an odious man.

Interesting the word conservative is missing from that headline when they were quite happy to use former SNP MP in the Mcgarry story :hmmm:

It's pretty straightforward now. If the UK as a country has any remaining sense of democracy, morals or fairness in society then Johnson needs to go. He partied while thousands died and then straight up lied to parliament about it. If he survives this Britain is no more a free and fair society than Hungary, China or even Russia.
In case people didn't want to watch the video a few posts above, here's Johnson's words in Parliament talking about the leaking of the video of Stratton and others laughing about how to manage the news that there had been parties in No10 during lockdown. A reminder that Stratton resigned - not because she'd attended, but because she was seen to have been joking about it.

Tory MPs already saying that while he 'misled' parliament and broke the law, now is not the time to resign, Ukraine, blah, blah.
Absolute wallopers. As is every Tory voter who defends this. Hopefully, the sane ones on here won't but nothing would surprise me.
They must have pictures from the security system, which was installed by a Moscow based company.
A Russian backed PM undone by Russian technology.
He has to resign not just as PM but as an MP.
If he lies so easily over something like a booze-up what else is he lying about?
