31. Nope
not like that here. That would have been an independant medical panel. The overall problem is the NHS itself - it's creaking at the seams. I know that you lot quite justifyably refer to our NHS as being free medical care. That's a fairy story - it paid for by another form of tax. The problem has become that what was once a sort of pure NHS pool of money for health care and pensions is now grouped together with normal tax by Blur and Co and spent in Iraq etc.

Apart from extremist "Nazi" groups like the BNP there isn't too much in the UK that you could really call right wing these days. Labour and Conservative parties meet up the middle somewhere. It's become like Animal Farm. :)
