| Message | Leave things in debate for longer than a month and actually write a bill description!! Your reasoning on all points is flawed. An entirely private health care system does nothing but guarantee that only certain parts of the population are capable of receiving health care thusly reducing our economic productivity as more time is lost due to health problems that would otherwise be sorted out through the NHS. We might consider article 2, but would need to know why you believe that removing the regulations guaranteeing that our students actually receive a decent education would be of any advantage to our Country and our young people. Article 3 is foolish. The private sector will not provide services for the public good that would lose money. Removing those services would mean massive economic and social problems to spread throughout this Country harming our competitive position in global markets. |
