(not satire – it’s Nick Clegg!)
“I think breaking up the NHS is exactly what you do need to do to make it a more responsive service” – Nick Clegg
This is what Nick Clegg had to say about the NHS – before he became Lib Dem leader and had to be more careful about expressing his real opinions.
I imagine the Lib Dems are extremely relieved that everyone seems to have forgotten about their leader’s very telling comments on the NHS in this interview.
Especially just 6 months before the next election.
Best not remind everyone by sharing it far and wide then.

Please feel free to comment. And share (if you don’t mind annoying Nick Clegg):

Don’t forget the historical antecedents of the Liberal party. Clegg encompasses free-market capitalist values. The fusion of the Liberals and SDP might have seemed, if precariously, to have put Whig traditions behind them. A very short-sighted (and I am genuinely short-sighted should anyone accuse me of ‘disablism’) view.

I was just wondering Tom, are you ready to call for Miliband to go yet? What do you think? I’m sure you’re not short of ways you could think of to satirise him, or simply take the piss for being effing useless!

This is more proof about how extreme and nearly indistinguishable from the Tories the Lib Dems under Clegg really are. You can’t even call them ‘Tory-lite’, as under the Tories there were at least Wets, who strongly objected to Maggie’s plan to privatise the Health Service. And what is absolutely amazing is that, according to a poll in the I newspaper in the week, 9 per cent of the population still supports them. This is despite Clegg’s lies and massive U-turn on tuition fees, and the support for Tory policies such as the bedroom tax, the pay cuts and freezes, the secret courts, etc. ad infinitum, ad nauseam, as Private Eye would say.

While the Tory-media et al are busy hammering Clegg (and hence the LibDems) into the ground, beware what the Preservative Party are doing behind our backs. At least the LDs have managed to deviate (!) the Tory asteroid somewhat from its originally intended path though by no means enough to entirely avoid the impending collision. With the explosion of the UKIP (super?)nova there are further disruptive influences like the impending fireball for Rochester that should be taken into account. Remember, it’s only 6 months to electoral impact – time to sharpen the bribery detectors!

When I heard that there was to be a Service of Remembrance in the Albert Hall, I immediately thought that it was because Nick Clegg had passed away…; but no such luck:: There he was, large as life with his foreign wife, up in the high seats of the gods!

It does seem incredible that anyone listens to what the Lib Dems believe, because it is obvious coming last in by-elections to the Elvis Party means the party is due to disappear in the general electin 2015.
But I do agree that the NHS needs breaking up. The managers / trusts who only know how to manage things, without medical expertise, need to end.
Since 1945 the NHS was run just fine by the senior medical consultants without all the huge lost of funding for pointless management, led by politicians who know even less about medicine and their lives also depend on the NHS as there are no emergency services in private hospitals.
If the senior medical consultants were also the sole rulers of all medical training of all staff in medicine, then medical knowledge would be in charge of hospitals altogether.
The judiciary are independent of parliament, so why not the NHS?
The NHS needs to be owned by its hospital patients and senior medical consultants direct, with laws for both about treatment and being fed and watered.
Even the Tories agree now that their reforms to the NHS were a mistake.
The huge rise in malnutrition hospital admissions will only continue to rise with all parties but The Greens in government in 2015.
Joining all the ages to 66 starving because of welfare reform,
will be those who have reached retirement age
of women born from 1953 and men born from 1951 after April 2016,
who will never get a state pension for life,
that is for many their sole money in old age,
either to top up low wages stagnated a decade into the past
or because age / disability / chronic illness ends ability to work.
Even an old dear reaching 80 in 2016 will not get the top up to a
part low basic state pension.
