Tories 'relaxed' about NHS crisis shows why we need the Lib Dems to be the Official Opposition

The government is 'relaxed' about the crisis in general practice because it thinks Labour can't win the general election, Dr Phil Hammond  a former GP and health commentator has said. Commenting on the news, Shadow Health Secretary Norman Lamb said:
“The Tories have acted with outrageous complacency by repeatedly failing to take action to tackle the crisis in our NHS and care services. Time and again, I have called on Theresa May and Jeremy Hunt to give the NHS and social care the extra funding they desperately need to keep pace with growing demand, but this has fallen on deaf ears.
“This election is a chance to show the Conservatives that they cannot continue to put the future of our most essential public services in jeopardy. A vote for the Liberal Democrats will be a vote to give our health and care services the resources they desperately need.”

The Tories are happy to let the NHS collapse cos they DO WISH to open it up to far more privatisation It will cost them less and put responsibility for health onto the individual.A two tier system will suit them fine. There millionares can make a killing out of investing in shares etc.

Six months for recording a court hearing - Norman Scarth

The link is in Russian about the imprisonment of Norman Scarth who is actually 85. He has a complex history including a court hearing which found that he used a chainsaw to fight off bailiffs when he was 75. [a court judgment which is disputed see comments] However, that does not justify imprisoning him for 6 months for recording a court hearing (see the link and ask google to translate it if your Russian is not up to it). It has got into the Argyll News Because he has been held such that people cannot get to him to sign paperwork an application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made today. This has been adjourned until next week. The English judicial system is really not good at responding to major abuses of human rights by the judicial system.
