[Suzy6 in reply to longlungs]

Too right Jane. Does it make the world safer or happier, no.xx

Hi Mollysdad I heard something about this on the radio today. If I have to pay £75 a night for a bed I would expect my own room with en suite. Tea making facilites, fridge microwave etc. Something is dreadfully wrong somewhere.

[Mollysdad in reply to Suzy6]

Hello Suzy, I would expect a fully equipped Bar with a selection of Real Ales and a range of Vintage Whiskey all served by a Dolly Parton lookalike. But that would never be my luck. I would end up with a bottle of flat coke being chucked at me by TV's Mrs Brown using her colourful vocabulary who would hide my Ventolin and Seratide huffers

Lets hope it never happens, as LongLungs commented, there seems to be funds for armaments to fight wars none of us want and no cash for the NHS !.

Keep well,

Geoff aka Mollysdad #grumpysoandso

Oh ha ha ha. Thanks for the amusing reply. Good start to the day. Let's hope we don't have to avail ourselves anytime soon. No not grumpy soandso. Amusing soandso.

Well it's not the NHS which is skint but the Govt. If they chased up all the big companies like Google, Amazon, Starbucks and all the 'star's like Jimmy Carr and Gary Barlow to pay their full taxes the country and the NHS would have plenty of money. Oh and not give themselves 11% pay rises and all their millionaire friends big tax cuts! x

[Mollysdad in reply to Hidden]

That is about right Coughalot.

Well said coughalot instead of hounding small people who very often owe nothing.

Well, if the Government stopped allowing the NHS to treat the world and his brother to receive free treatment, they wouldn't be broke. This was set up after WW11 for the people of this country, and we paid for it out of our wages for all of our working lives. Other than obvious emergencies, there is no way that an outsider should be entitled to free medical help. Try getting free medical aid in any other country if you need it on holiday etc., It's not going to happen, it'll cost you plenty! So why do we put up with it here to our own detriment?? Wake up Britain!

HS2 will cost upwards of £80bn to save fat cats 10 minutes on their journeys to London. The rich are getting richer while the rest of us pay for it. Something's got to change.

[onamission]

The reason why the NHS is broke everyone in the EU is able to walk in to the country and receive free medical treatment

Aneurin Bevan must be spinning in his grave!!!

More troublemaking from an unknown source no-one in authority is suggesting this payment it is probably from a so called expert ( definition: ex is something that has been and spert is a drip under pressure.)

[Mollysdad in reply to PompeyBob]

Good morning Bob. Your definition gave my giggle box a SpUrt when checking my posts. The source of the NHS / Hotel Artical is unknown. However Tweets on the BBC Tweet site had hundreds of hits that night, mostly amusing but many worried about NHS privatisation.

Look after yourself Bob !
