The Tories are doing nothing to halt preventable illnesses. Why would THAT happen?
Here’s a thought:
If the Conservative government really was planning to sell off the National Health Service as part of a trade deal with a foreign power – Trump’s USA or anyone else – wouldn’t it make sense to ensure that there were plenty of sick people in the United Kingdom who the buyers could use to make a profit?
I know. That kind of behaviour would indicate mental illness on the part of our leaders.
Or it would suggest a strong profit motive.
Just saying.
A new report from the think tank IPPR argues that progress on preventing ill health has ‘hit a wall’ since 2010.
Over half of the disease burden in England is deemed preventable, with one in five deaths attributed to causes that could have been avoided.

Tories really are evil. Totally and utterly evil.
Is it really possible that the Tories are even more evil than we thought?
We need a new leader of a Party that supports and assists the many not the few rich and privileged people.
We have a fine leader of such a party.
