If Boris returns as Prime Minister he should have Ricky Gervais as his advisor.

Why are you overlooking the wrecking of the economy by nearly 14 years of Tory mismanagement? Along with the 15 years of Tory wastage prior to New Labour rescuing the economy?You mean Gordon Brown selling off our gold on the cheap to balance the books ......... LOL
Anyway why aren't the nursing staff supervising your internet use, last thing they want is their reputation called in to question with the police knocking.
395 tons of gold, at today’s prices would be about £16bn, give or take (I’ve had a few Wray & Nephew so my calcs could be out). NHS in 2021-22 cost about £181bn. Did Brown’s trimming of the UK’s investment portfolio really cause that much damage, say as either PFI or Brexit? (See, I’m being ecumenical with apportioning responsibilities)…

You have already had the full information on the selling of gold by Brown. The reality is that the Tories have done more economic damage by privatising North Sea Oil, never mind also selling off Gas, Water and electricity, which they did. Brown's sell off was in order to put the money into investment to either make money or to save money as in reducing the national debt thus paying less tax on it, unlike the Tory sell offs which were needed just to keep the economy ticking over. I realise that political truth means nothing to those who have been swallowing Tory propaganda for so long

You’ve lost me — PFI has cost the NHS, education, and councils dear. As for your previous post on sale if gold, I missed it. Where is it? Would I have learned anything? Apologies, I shouldn’t drink on a Monday, but I’ve just finished a monster of a business proposal…

Apologies, I shouldn’t drink on a Monday, but I’ve just finished a monster of a business proposal… The real costs of PFI, can only be assessed after a number of realities are taken into account i.e.: 1. The subtraction of the cost of producing necessary new buildings by a different method other than PFIs. 2. Taking into account that if done via a government project, then how many Government projects come in 'on time and on cost'. (Excluding the initial PFIs that were badly handled by NL.) 3. PFI cost calculations were destroyed by the 2008 International Financial Meltdown. The comments on gold were just two posts before your earlier post. I hope you enjoyed your relaxing drink
