For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

So then you want more private healthcare in Britain or less?Montegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 5:01 pmNo. I'm against for-profit only healthcare systems and in favour of a mix of public and private. That way nobody gets bankrupted by horrendous bills and those with existing conditions can receive the care they need.StCapps wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 4:54 pmIn other words you are against the private market, you are just for private insurance as long care is administered by the government, and it's not a strawman at all.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 4:06 pm
Nice strawman Capps. I've never said that I have a problem with private healthcare for those that can afford it.
The UK system is a mixture of public and private healthcare and I think that is the best of both worlds. If people want a room to themselves, shorter waiting lists and better food they can buy private healthcare insurance and if they can't afford it they can receive some of the best healthcare in the world via the NHS.
My only real objection to private healthcare in this country is the fact that they do very little training of hospital staff and poach nurses and doctors who have been trained by the NHS rather than pay the costs of training them themselves. This is in effect a government subsidy for profit-making private healthcare companies.

I don't really care. I'm happy with the service provided by the NHS even if the Tories don't spend as much as I'd like on it.StCapps wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 5:05 pmSo then you want more private healthcare in Britain or less?Montegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 5:01 pmNo. I'm against for-profit only healthcare systems and in favour of a mix of public and private.

A Labour government would spend more but the hard left come with a lot of risks, especially to the economy. Blair wasn't too bad, he increased spending on the NHS by more than any other government in the last 50 years and kept a good hand on the economy but he was a bit war crimey.
I favour the Lib' Dem's these days but they aren't ever going to win power so I'll settle for Bo-Jo for now, he's a lot more liberal than most people realise and his missus is a leading environmentalist.

Electric vehicles suffer in terms of range if you have to use the heater a lot so you'd be better of moving somewhere warmer if you do get a Cybertruck.Smitty-48 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 5:09 pmI can buy the Tesla Cybertruck now, funded by the Tesla bump, I could pay cash actually, but I'll still finance itMontegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Mar 14, 2020 5:03 pmShe certainly sounds like a keeper even if she won't let you buy a Tesla Cybertruck or move to Nevada.

I don't suppose you travel big distances in Canada very often though so for driving down the off licence to top up on single malt and smokes it would be more than adequate.

I would be buying it as a sports car & pickup truck all in one.
