" It depends who you believe i guess as usual with politics this is from someone who voted against it. “This had nothing whatsoever to do with protecting the NHS. The government is clear that the NHS will never be on the table in any trade agreements and this Trade Bill doesn’t change that. “Tabling poorly thought out amendments such as New Clause 17, which are not relevant to the purpose of a bill and forcing the Government to vote them down is a standard opposition parliamentary tactic. It’s pure politics and not based on any good-faith desire to improve the law. | |||

"more left wing crap they have been spreading this lie since the 60's and the first selling off was done by labour and thanks to a bad building programme the NHS is in debt for billions thankyou Tony Blair. A lot of NHS problems because of labour but you lefties allways try to twist it" A common excuse for the government acting against the interests of the people seems to be "well look Labour did someone once".

Increased?

"Have a little read of this its right up your street. https://www.socialistparty.org.uk/articles/4647/29-09-2005/labours-great-nhs-sell-off This is without the 10 billion wasted on a failed computer system.
Have you travelled back in time?No just found it strange you only wanted to talk about the last 10 years only because it suited your narrative yet again.Personally i like to look at the whole picture not just snapshots of time you should try it as it gives you a more balanced view.
11 years a snapshot?
Boris's habit of taking no responsibility whatsoever certainly trickes down doesnt it?"Stop talking in riddles what exactly has boris done now to the nhs in your opinion that has got you so upset? | |||

"If the NHS is for sale, I would ask who wants to buy it? Not taking anything away from the staff working their arses off at present, but I for one wouldn't invest in it. Here's some information about how much chunks of the NHS is worth to US big pharma companies. https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/06/business/nhs-trump-trade-drugs-analysis-intl-ge19/index.html Probably a coincidence that these industries pumped so much cash into the Leave campaigns. This 'we'll be charged more for medicine' is old news. It's never gonna happen unless the US have a medicine that we can't source elsewhere, in which case, pay them what they want. Then we've got nothing to worry about eh!
Why consume yourself with worry about something you cannot control
We did have some control though. But people chose to put the NHS in a position where it was possible for US big pharma to buy into it.

"appears that the last restrictions to the sell off of the NHS to foreign companies have been removed. What you fail to mention is the NHS moved from a public sector provider to include the private sector in 1999 under the last Labour government.!" what's your point? I could use the same logic to say that the financial crash in 2008 was Thatchers/Conservatives fault because they deregulated the banks in 1980. | |||

Life expectancy rates have slowed but certainly not declined."it shows a decline in 2014-2016, the overall trend after is a flat line. Is that somehow making it OK in your eyes we are winners in the world?at the end of the day life expectancy for women in the UK is now lower than in Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. Men do little better. In almost every other affluent country, apart from the US, people live longer than in the UK, often several years longer and the best countries are pulling away. Between 2011 and 2015 life expectancy rose by a year in both Norway and Finland. It rose by more than a year in Japan, despite the Japanese already having the highest life expectancy in the world.Even if its not rising here but it is all those other nations. Then I would class that as the UK being in relative decline. Why you wish to defend that baffles me. | |||

Is that somehow making it OK in your eyes we are winners in the world?at the end of the day life expectancy for women in the UK is now lower than in Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. Men do little better. In almost every other affluent country, apart from the US, people live longer than in the UK, often several years longer and the best countries are pulling away. Between 2011 and 2015 life expectancy rose by a year in both Norway and Finland. It rose by more than a year in Japan, despite the Japanese already having the highest life expectancy in the world.Even if its not rising here but it is all those other nations. Then I would class that as the UK being in relative decline. Why you wish to defend that baffles me.
I am not defending anything. I am simply pointing out that you made a false statement.
And then backed that up with data.
"I think I pointed out I made no false statement the ONS graph shows the decline between 2014-2016. | |||

"more left wing crap they have been spreading this lie since the 60's and the first selling off was done by labour and thanks to a bad building programme the NHS is in debt for billions thankyou Tony Blair. A lot of NHS problems because of labour but you lefties allways try to twist it Absolute trash, the problem is the Conservatives have cut the health budget year on year, Germany spend a billion a week more that we do on health care. The chronic de-funding is a disgrace! I think we now have the highest infant mortality rate in Europe. Also we are the only country in Europe where life expectancy is going down! Privatised health care in this country would be atrocious, just look at the railways and how much they cost the tax payer and the commuter since privatisation. How long will people keep voting for the asset stripping parasites before they wake up??False news life expectancy in the uk is not falling. proof please! It has been documented in books written by professors using peer reviewed statistics, mistaken are they?

Here you go. If you scroll down there's a graph showing the last 40 years.
Life expectancy rates have slowed but certainly not declined. it shows a decline in 2014-2016, the overall trend after is a flat line.

I think I pointed out I made no false statement the ONS graph shows the decline between 2014-2016. "'Also we are the only country in Europe where life expectancy is going down!' Went down and then started to increase again. 'Going down' one would argue is a statement of present, which is false. | |||
