I thought in politics there was no value of "human lives". But it is now vis versa, the doctors in (UK) those who are supposed to save lives are trying to bury the patients alive across the nation by shutting the NHS in the name of strike. It was very unfortunate to read in the British media (Daily Telegraph Tues, 26 April 2016), BMA comments “it is not the doctors fault if the patients die?”
When the UK Government is facing a debt timebomb of £1.9 trillion the NHS bosses and others are paid millions in bonuses etc? There is an English poverb "stitch in time saves nine". But the debt holes has become so big God forbid, does not bring the same situation like in Greece and in other EU countries?
And make the taxpayer's cover the massive debt of holes created by the past and the present UK government? It really does not add up,when the UK government is facing this kind of big hole, why keep on dropping millions pounds of bomb in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya etc. Are we living in the land of hope and glory or in the land of strike?
