Everything they are doing to the NHS they did to British Rail.
Underfunded it, exhausted the service, got the public angry, and then said privatisation is the solution.
Please RT if you won’t fall for it.

The Dunblane massacre was 27yrs ago today. 17 people were gunned down in a wee, Scottish school. There was a ban on handguns and the population reacted positively. One person didnae. A journalist, who wrote, “Nanny is confiscating their toys.” He was made a PM. #BorisJohnson 😤🫠

My @SkyNews interview exposing Braverman’s lies is approaching 2 million views.
This is democracy in action.

I don’t work for the BBC so I'm free to say what I feel. The language used by Suella Braverman and Priti Patel, about refugees and migrants, is very similar to language used in Germany in the 1930s. It's a fact. RT if you agree.

This video from 2018 is on the BBC's website and says,
"Gary is not involved in any news or political output for the BBC, and as such, any expression of his personal political views, does not affect the BBC's impartiality."

Comparisons with 1930s Germany are not acceptable, says national broadcaster, as it complies with demands from the ruling party to take a prominent government critic off air.

Dear 🇬🇧,
While the govt tries to distract and terrify you about an "invasion" of small boats, recall we have 500 preventable deaths every week because the Tories have destroyed NHS emergency care. Only one of those issues could kill you. You're focused on the wrong one.

Solidarity with my former colleague @GaryLineker as these two horrible, sinister publications round on him for having the principles and basic humanity so lacking in this grotesque government and its media lackeys. How very 1930s of these weasels to demand dissent be crushed.

Well said @GaryLineker!
Tweet him your support.
The more high profile figures speak out against this anti refugee hate, the better.

They partied as NHS staff worked in horrifying conditions without PPE then forced strike action by refusing a pay rise.
They picked our pockets as we died and gave their mates contracts from the public purse, billions lost to fraud.
They’re fucking scum and should be in jail.
