Agent Orange has declared he wants the NHS to be on the table in any US-UK trade deal . . .

Meanwhile, on the second day of his state visit, following a cross-party backlash, the president later appeared to row back on his comments. In an interview with Good Morning Britain’s Piers Morgan, he said: “I don’t see [the NHS] being on the table. Somebody asked me a question today and I say everything is up for negotiation, because everything is. But that’s something I would not see as part of trade. That’s not trade.


Yeah, right, we believe you :rolleyes:

What I love about Trump is that you don't have to trawl archives to find examples of complete U turns. It can be days, hours, minutes even seconds before he has a complete change of direction. This is largely due to the fact that most of the time he has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. :D

It was silly to mention the NHS, dumb people lose all sense of reality when you even dare to suggest any change to it, and assume it's either the NHS or the way the USA do it, despite other places such as Germany being a mixture of private and public healthcare (and a lot better service than the NHS in my pretty extensive experience).

He didn't mention it, a Journalist asked about it, he said everything is on the table in a negotiation as that's typically how negotiations work in his world. He has no specific plans to privatise the NHS, he probably doesn't even know how the UK NHS works. Cue mass hysteria from people suffering from large doses of confirmation bias.

That may or may not be so, but the US healthcare industry basically looks at our country as a pot of gold waiting to be seized. Always has done long before Trump.

So what the people wanted in the North when the miners were told to **** off was immaterial?
Unfortunately that is the default position of Londoners and Governments of pretty much all flavors.

Now if we had the negotiating power of the Northern Irish Religious Loonies things might be a bit different . . .

It's a simple point to understand, the United Kingdom as a whole took the decision to leave the EU, one part of the UK not wishing to leave doesn't override the majority who did want to leave. Miners in the North were over ridden by the fact the UK as a whole elected a Conservative government who made a change in policy, they went on strike but ultimately the government won.

Following on from Thatcher's nasty, spiteful bloody-mindedness, Cameron's stupidity and the risk of Bonker Boris becoming Prime Minister this is clear, unequivocal evidence that electing any Tory Government has always been a catastrophic mistake.


This just in . . .
Agent Orange has now started his visit to Eire by comparing its post-Brexit border with Northern Ireland to the US border with Mexico, along which he wants to build a permanent wall.

Agent Orange, sitting next to a visibly uncomfortable taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, waded into the Brexit debate minutes after Air Force One touched down at Shannon airport on Wednesday afternoon.

I think it will all work out very well, and also for you with your wall, your border,” he said at a joint press conference. “I mean, we have a border situation in the United States, and you have one over here. But I hear it’s going to work out very well here.”​

EEJIT!

Do you think it makes your posts come across better when you insult every Politician who isn't on your side of the fence? According to you, just by chance, everyone who is on the Conservative side of the Political spectrum is a bad person. Does that feel correct? Maybe they're actually mostly good people who have different ideas on what's better for the country, just a thought

Just for that, i'd vote for them if regionally they weren't so pointless..:D

Daddy T is a ****, Corby Senpai is a ****, so if one is worth voting for surely the other is too.

Better ideas like killing the homeless, disabled and deprived... hmm, delicious.

They believe in providing the individual with freedoms so they're able to stop themselves from being homeless by having a good economy with lots of opportunities to work and/or start your own business, it's the old adage of give a man a fish. You think you stop people from being poor by giving them government money, they believe you stop people from being poor by ensuring they have lots of opportunities. Some people will inevitably struggle in the short and medium term, but the culture will change over time and people will learn they can't sit around taking handouts and they'll learn that it's better to work, and then they'll learn that if they're going to work anyway they may as well strive for better paid work. This same person in a socialist environment might be sat on the couch all day.
