I guess it’s easy for the authors to do, compared to traditional routes. I do not like putting money in that man’s pockets.

Oh Eugh. That sucks.

Honestly I wish we could just live in separate houses, because I feel like everyone would be less annoyed all the time.

I suspect you’ll find 92% didn’t understand the connotation of nuclear war.

Asked her to get the vacuum and clean up cereal. AND SHE DID IT WITHOUT AN ‘IN A MINUTE!’… I think I need an exorcist.

She has also spilled cereal all over the floor. It’s crunchy to walk on.

This sounds absolutely perfect.

I was titled Prickly Emu by someone I follow way back in 2011. I liked it. It stuck for social media

Well, that’s just beautiful.

We’re also going to replace my husbands Range Rover, because it has become uninsurable 😑

Generally 20 miles or so, running new parent support groups and ferrying kids here there and everywhere.

And most of my stuff would be around the city, with occasional jaunts to other places.

We would install a charger.

Banana and PB, surely. With a drizzle of honey for sheer decadence.

To my knowledge it includes all people “Hospital treatment is free of charge for people who are ordinarily resident in the UK. This does not depend on nationality, payment of UK taxes, National Insurance contributions, being registered with a GP, having an NHS number, or owning property in the UK.”

Hi awkward, or do you prefer Jo? You can call me whatever you like.

I’m following you for the angry goat in your header, if I’m honest.

In an ideal world, healthcare would be a human right & free for all. But capitalism & a million other things have decreed that it shouldn’t be so. I am very sorry that you feel something I said was bad, I apologise unreservedly for existing. I am not people. I do not matter.

You’ve read something in my comment that wasn’t there, and added your own implication. I suspect most non-British-citizens are better people than a lot of the British citizens I have come across in my 43 years on this planet. And I don’t like Streeting any more than I like the tories.
comment in response to post
Well, me too, but either I am ignored or criticised, so now I am wondering. I am a safe space to comment 😉

If anyone ever wants to comment on something I say, you go ahead and feel free. I’ll reply and everything.

Very sorry to have bothered you. Was only commenting a British perspective from one of us who lived in the US a while. You won’t hear from me again.
comment in response to post
It does mean that if Big Pharma in the US are the only people to have developed an amazing drug, and are charging and insane amount of money for each dose then we can’t get it here, because the NhS cannot afford it.
comment in response to post
The only drugs we get advertised in the UK are the ones we can buy over the counter. And we research the cheap alternatives, because there is no huge money in big pharma here, or anywhere in Europe for that matter. People with chronic conditions (eg. Diabetes) get their treatment free.
