I will vote if UK Reform stands. If not then I will spoil my form.

I think we owe it to the Suffragettes who died and campaigned for women to vote.

 I wont even go to the polls.

In my opinion, the suffragettes voted for the rights to vote and the rights for women to choose. I choose not to waste my time.

 I won't waste my chance to scrawl NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE all over my voting form.

 Like I said, I won't necessarily be voting.  But I will make my feelings on the matter known in fat black felt pen.

 Ultimately, no one cares, it'll just go in the bin with all the other spoiled votes.

The only thing they care about is who has put a cross on THEIR name....and how many votes their opponents have won.

I think more of a point is made by not showing up at all.
I'm wondering or maybe hoping that this election will see the lowest turn out ever
and wondering what impact it will have on British politics and even culture.
It won't be so easy to ignore.
It very loudly proclaims the people have had enough!

First Minister John Swinney has dealt a blow to the SNP's election campaign by backing former health minister Michael Matheson.

Matheson said he had been doing official business but did infact watch two Celtic games on his IPad while he was on holiday and billed the taxpayer £11,000.

He's now been banned from Holyrood for 27 sitting days.

 

Swinney has been accused of defending the indefensible.

I've just seen that Sunak has promised to build a 100 new doctors surgeries if he wins the election.
Is this before or after the 100 new hospitals Boris promised?
I suspect after.
Will they be built before or after the £35,000,000 a week going to the NHS if the leave lot won the Brexit vote?
I suspect after.
They make these promises with straight faces.

Pity there are no GP'S to work in them.

 

 

 

 "There is a shortage of GPs in the UK, with some areas having to cope with half the number of doctors than other areas1. In 2021/2022, there was a shortage of around 4,200 full-time equivalent (FTE) fully qualified, permanently employed GPs in England. This is projected to rise to around 6,700 FTE GPs in 2023/24 and 8,800 FTE GPs by 2030/312. A Health Foundation study suggests that the current 4,200 shortfall could rise to more than 10,000 by 2030-31"

 Maybe you need to pay them more.

 

While I don't know any pasty faced British doctors, there are huge numbers of foreign doctors here in N Texas. 

 

I'm sure these doctors are qualified to work in the UK, but have over 300,000 reasons to work here.

There are a huge number of foreign Dr's in the UK too.
In fact, I can't remember the last time I saw a pasty faced one.

 Well, those must be the ones that couldn't make the cut over here..😉

 

My doctor wears cowboy boots, but he's becoming an outlier I think. 

 

I changed insurance a couple of years ago and you get a list of approved doctors and their proximity to you, reviews, ratings and other information about them like age, where they went to school, ect..

 

Either my insurance company prefers foreign born doctors, or they are the most common around here .

 Mr Mirage is a bit of a character and I think he's made a very smart move.

He understands the mood of the nation and I think he'll do very well.

I won't be voting for him as I think gaining power will bring out the extreme side of him.

Well I feel he's given us hope. There's no one else who can. Cons and Lab are two sides of the same coin.

 Well Farage may well have put paid to that idea as he really has injected hope and excitement back into the election for millions!

Very smart move and Reform may well end up as the outsiders who won against all the odds!

The establishment must be fuming...
