Food for thought. I have had a private dentist for some years now and have received much better treatment than before. If I could afford private medicine, I would undoubtedly go for it.

A life on sickness benefits will soon pay £2,500 more a year than a full-time minimum wage job, according to analysis from the Centre for Social Justice. No wonder the country is going bankrupt.

Net Zero to cost taxpayers £800bn. Spending on tech investments and lost tax revenue to cost £30bn a year until 2051. ‘£22bn black hole”? The Labour government are punishing farmers, pensioners, disabled and small businesses to pay for Net Zero.
