Don’t get angry now, zero interest in being a politician, I’ve attended peaceful protests which I deemed worthwhile. Meanwhile I’ll use the democratic process as is normal practice rather than blocking roads like a real twat. Quite amusing to see the alphabet people on the receiving end for a change “ no pun intended “ 

Real people with feelings 😂😂😂😂

 

The group, who demands "Stop all trade with Israel | Make the rich pay damage" in their twitter profile,

 

 

Do you know what a pun is?

Or the function of quotation marks?

I have to agree with much of that.

and not just because I don't wanna get chucked in the canal.

Ha, youre taking one for the team, less taxes to pay your pension mate. Well not less taxes, the same taxes but spent on better things like fixing those expensive parliament doors, new wallpaper for the common room and free peanuts at the MP bar.

I thought it was a pun   an amusing use of a word or phrase that has several meanings- LBGTQ (alphabet people) on the receiving end for a change - either a giver or receiver

Not a clue 42, im right wing you see, so not  educated and don’t get things like you lefties do. I often sit here in dive control wondering how you just  “ get it”. Not this time it would seem.

far as I can tell - have it but never needed to use it, UK Private health care covers things that the GP looks at and leaves the NHS to the tricky things like A&E, but some things the NHS will do better anyway (I think once diagnosed the headliners - like cancers and heart disease the NHS is up there with the best), so private will not do that so much either. In the US private healthcare covers everything.

Private health care eh SP 🤔bit of an imported coal burning private health care socialist hypocrite on the quiet it would seem. 
The quote above is pure crap, basically in a nutshell you pay to jump the queue, it’s the same consultants the same facilities often the same building just you don’t have to wait in my case 12-18 months.

Unfortunately it isnt. When private health care goes wrong the patient can end up in the care of the NHS.

He didnt as I sort of misread it, my bad, big apologise, hang my head in shame etc, etc, But, the NHS does do after care very well which is what SP was referring to, the private sector don't want that as that costs sh1t loads of money. So, quite a lot of people get say the initial cancer treatment privately then are hoofed back to the NHS for the after care. Happened to my mates mum 40 years ago BUPA ****************ed up and the NHS had to fix her up. She was a nutcase btw and stabbed her son/my mate in the leg with a sword hidden in her walking cane which was a bit of a surprise to say the least! She also bought a ninja throwing star and herled (SP) it down the stairs at his twin brother. Council estates, arent they brilliant!

 

How about if you are in full time employment you can opt out of paying NI so you cant whinge about the NHS but you have to pay for every bit of health care whether its through private insurance or out of your back pocket for the rest of your life? Car crash, boating accident, cliff climbing accident on a Sunday in your shorts and flip flops rescued by the NHS you or your insurance foot the bill.

Just to correct the 'man' frim Blyth who doesn't know where coal comes from, and to stop him banging on on about private healthcare in every thread for the next millenium... in my case, heakthcare is provided by the employer, for all their employees. No option, no hypocrisy, if there was an option I'd be sticking to what has worked for me so far, which is NHS treatment,

 

I tried to correct you but I very much doubt that will be the end of that, probably you'll mention it till everyone is sick of that as well as your coal.

I bought another saw today sp, a Dolmar 122, do you like Dolmar saws?
