How do you think Boris has handled it so far ? 8th May

[vegster]

So a handbrake turn on the charging foreign NHS staff to access the service, after just hours previously saying it was right...

This government may have won the election, but they clearly aren't currently fit to govern, they are getting so many things wrong at a time of national importance...!

This was inevitable, how the government could reiterate the fact that foreign NHS staff would have to pay this, despite the obvious outrage from the majority of the people in this country, is astounding. A cluster**** of the highest order to even raise it at this point in time.

Johnson claimed the fees it raised £900m p.a in parliament, the number is £90m. Another LIE par the course I guess

Anyway great news for these people

the civil servents behind the lectern are in government, having input on responce and policy.

Christ! You’re thick as shit.

Christ! You’re thick as shit.

Can always rely on NSC for a balanced, intelligent debate.

Thumbs down for this one Clamp. Terrible post, unnecessary and unjustified in my opinion.

Morning. While you’re here, what did you make of the news, that the government have abruptly back-tracked on Patel’s disgusting Health surcharge, for non-national NHS workers?

My take on it is something like this:

* grossly unfair charge announced
- opposition and public outcry
* government announce that they’ve conducted a thorough review, and the policy is right and proper
- opposition leader attacks unfair policy at PMQs, raising awareness and resulting in negative media and public opinion
* a mere matter of hours later, the government announce the charge is now to be scrapped for those workers.

I’d say it was a timely example of how PMQs, and the role of opposition in general, works.

What’s your take?

I think it’s fantastic and underpins how important PMQ’s is.

He wasn’t even in discussion with you and then a day later you jump on him with those snake comments even though he corrected himself almost immediately. I try to like you but every now and again you pop up and remind me how nasty you can be!

Totally agree with the plan, morally correct in all aspects. Starmer appears to have taken some of the credit, although his value, imho, would have been higher to keep silent. The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.

I read that some Universal Credit, well a significant amount of taxpayer cash, has been claimed fraudulently. I mention this in the context that I hope the goodwill incorporated in this correct implementation of dismissing the surcharge is in no way abused in the future.

Then all are happy.

Oooh, nasty Clamp. Dry your eyes, Dorothy.

No surprise you’re all over this. Weirdo.

And for the record, it wasn’t just the civil servant aspect of his post I was referring to.

NB

I couldn’t give a tinker’s curse whether you like me or not ;-) I think you’re a creepy bell-end and I’ve never attempted to like you.

No, I corrected him and, a few hours later he agreed he was wrong. But I know you struggle with simple facts

And to be fair, I can see why, relatively speaking, you would think that

Why don’t you just admit, it was a disgusting move by the Tory’s. No caveats, no “I hope it doesn’t get abused like those universal credit scum bags” just say “yep, revolting Tory policy, great that is was overturned”.

And goodwill? Goodwill? Have a word. Public disgust and fear of losing voters.
You seriously think the Tory’s u-turned out of goodwill . Christ.

Your bias is so deep-set, that Johnson could set fire to your Nan, then Starmer extinguish the flames with his bare hands, and you’d find a way to not credit the chap with the red rosette.

Honestly - what you’ve suggested is utterly ridiculous. If Starmer had ‘kept silent’ why exactly would the government have abruptly cancelled a policy, that only hours earlier Patel had ‘thoroughly reviewed’ and found to be completely in order

Embarrassing
