I think there are a fair few mistaking anti-racism with black supremacy.

Superb point. The pandemic may have led the government to rethink its policy of dismantling sections of the NHS and selling it off to the highest bidder. Although, not even sure that Boris's brush with death (as we are led to believe) will see him shift from this stance.


People have been saying the NHS will be sold off since I was a lad, yet here we are in 2020 with most of its history being under a Conservative government and it is going from strength to strength.

Seems a few on here already are fearful because some footballers have dared to take a knee AND raised their fist.

All those BLM protestors holding up a clenched fist for a start. Kneeling is one thing but how does holding up a clenched fist in any way signify anti-racism

You're old enough to remember the 1968 Mexico Olympics, with Tommy Smith and John Carlos.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Funny how the perception of that was one of Black Power, perhaps the media then where just as bad as they are today in terms of misrepresenting things

What else would you like to happen to the NHS? Do you want even more money spent on it, and if so what would you cut to pay for it?

The arguments around the NHS have been done to death on here and elsewhere but the fight against Covid-19 has showed the consequences of 10 years of underfunding-report findings ignored etc. etc. resulting in the deaths of hundreds of peoplease who had the right to be protected in their place of work. If the country is to deal with potentially second and further waves of this or even new viruses then I'm afraid more money will have to be spent on the NHS and the Government will have to reprioritise their commitments.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Joseph Joubert.
