Dear Richard Littlejohn, here’s some polish for that turd

Whether it is climate change, religion, the NHS the left are at it.[/url]

Read the Ukip, BNP, EDL, Britain First or Tory manifestos recently? They're full of the above subjects as well. right wing bigots or left wing bigots, they're the same and everyone else is wrong

The Tories do not pretend to be representatives of the lower classes and the poor whereas the left do .

Well they damned well should.

Nah this is what they think of the lower classes:

Former minister David Mellor was called a 'snob' today after he launched a foul-mouthed rant at a taxi driver over the quickest route home, calling him a 'smart-a**** little git' and a 'sweaty, stupid little s***'.
...
The 65-year-old barrister and radio presenter could be heard asking the taxi driver: 'Who are you to question me?' before yelling: 'I don't want to hear from you, shut the f*** up. Smart-a**** little b******.'

He also told the taxi driver he abused to 'get an education'

...

He said: 'I've been in the Cabinet, I'm an award-winning broadcaster, I'm a Queen's Counsel — you think that your experiences are anything compared to mine?'

What gets me is people (always on the left) who call it "our NHS". It's all part of this holy cow syndrome - you just can't criticise this creaking, inefficient organisation (the second largest state employer in the world next to Indian State Railways!).

But lets face it, it can't survive in its current form and the left's answer is always to hose it down with taxpayers' cash. All that seems to do is create a culture of wastefulness as well as bloated layers of middle management with their targets based culture which just seems to further compound the problems.

However, a stark comparison.

The National Health Service is facing a £2 billion hole in it's finances and is on the brink of disaster. Apparently there is no money available for this, as clearly demonstrated by the government's refusal to give nurses a measly 1% pay rise.

However...the proposed bill for the restoration of Westminster Palace is approximately £3 billion. How much would you bet that this money magically appears from somewhere despite being told "there's no money left"?

Well done Sainsburys for giving her the heave-ho.

So, final score: Monroe 1 - Liddlejohn 1.

So she hasn't been dropped by Sainsbury's but has been attacked by Michael Gove's wife who is a columnist (5th?) for the Wail:

Buildings for MPs and Lords are more important than nurses being able to live let alone in expensive areas.

The tins of beans with the little sausages in them, they are the best.

Finally. The one thing the two of us can agree on

The money would be better spent on the Palace of westminster. the jobs it would create would be worth it alone. It is in a terrible state of disrepair.
Why should we just pander to the "open cheque" politics of the NHS and just pay nurses more? Why dont we do what the socialist workers party want us to do and all of us work for the NHS?

Let us remember that nurses do not carry much responsibility and they are paid well enough as they are. A lot of them need a kick up the arse. The NHS needs reforming not feeding.

Let's hope the next one you get doesn't confuse micrograms and milligrams when dishing out your meds eh?

I had a nurse friend, she said they were not permitted to cut patients nails because that was regarded as a surgical procedure so a doctor had to do it. There's a small example of a total waste of cash.

I agree re the repair work needing to be done. Can't have the place falling to pieces. A stitch in time and all that.... Although I bet 'in time' was 20 or 30 years ago.
