Been a long while since we've thumped a ten man team.

Momentum have online ballot for their members to indicate their preference of next Labour leader.... and include one candidate as the option....

but we’ve got a better football than them, too.

Mitre Delta?

Some epic failings of tactical voting. City of London goes to the Tories despite them taking 17k votes and the greens, labour and lib dems taking 25k votes.

Exit poll suggesting huge conservative majority and worst Labour position in "modern times", basically their fewest seats since prior to WW2.

Who said anything about abolishing existing infrastructure? The NHS is mostly a service led..... erm, service? Go back to the red cross example. They were able, due to cutting out middle management waste, to deliver a better service for less. The same occurs at all sorts of levels within the NHS alr...

I've not got a problem with 111 itself, my experience sounds similar to Dan's, the staff are polite and helpful, and so far they've pointed us in the right direction for getting help. If they're always sending you to A&E or the out of hours doctor, then that's because you're right to be concerned a...

It's not long ago that you were bemoaning the lack of a bed for you to sleep in in hourwife's maternity ward. Now whilst I personally think that's a ste...

More relevant, the appalling abuse of statistics performed by Sajid Javid to claim the Tories are improving the homelessness numbers in the uk are absolutely cringe worthy. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/sajid-javid-homeless-conservatives-labour-election-brexit-t...

I can confirm this is not the case. However, I don't disagree with the policy. What I do disagree with is that it is all that's needed to fund the highly ambitious policies put forward by Labour, along with an increase in corporation tax to be possibly the highest level of tax on business in the wor...
