John Bolton – the top Trump aide here in the UK at the moment to talk about a post-Brexit trade deal between the UK and the US – has said publicly that a public healthcare system such as the NHS is something only Iranian or North Korean leaders like.
In a 2011 speech, Bolton declared:
“…both Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Kim Jong Il in the healthcare debate would undoubtedly prefer the public option.”
Be afraid. Very afraid.

Hmmm, a security adviser talking about economics and trade. Now that is interesting! In fact it is so interesting that we must take note of a country that would send a bearer of weapons mass destruction to a cat fight. Bolton is a mass killer, whose main aim at the moment is to prosecute illegal war in Iran. He couldn’t care less about the UK, Europe or anywhere else, and it is doubtful that he cares about any place in the U.S. that is outside of the walls of the Pentagon. He’s here to broker a deal based on British subservience to his master’s dreams of world domination. If they can only break Europe, then they have only China and Russia to deal with. Incidentally, older readers might remember him from the 1960s , only then he was known as Mr. Pastry. Any man that can stand by as America turns into a giant tent city, overrun with rats and disease, needs putting in his box, pronto! Send this imbecile home, and he can take Boris with him”!!

This man should be told in no uncertain terms that what we do with our NHS is our business. We don’t want or need inteference from Trump and his henchmen. But you can be certain that our ridiculous government will do precisely what the US orders it to do. So goodbye NHS.

99% of the UK government can be bribed to sell state assets so the picture is very bad for the future of our beloved NHS – once the best in the world now No.10 due to all the political interference. The Tories speak Bolton’s language. Will the UK voter riot if more NHS is sold off ?
I doubt it, they’ll carry on voting Tory so the outlook is bleak.

Bolton is a dangerous fanatic who persuaded Trump to exit the INF treaty citing totally unproven claims of Russian violations:
