It was that exciting that budget fell asleep it has certainly not an austerity budget, but ten years of damage it just a bit of leveling up imo - but certainly not Gideon's way ......

It's hardly a Gideon or Thatcher budget is it ? borrowing on low interest is a sensible Labour ideology..,...

The money to be "invested" by the puppet chancellor will end up as handouts to the private sector...not used for public infrastructure....smoke and mirrors...
Steal the labour parties ideas and then twist it round to suit their own greedy aims

 

[Barnfred 55]

Well the largest burden to the welfare state is pensions

Ah. Now their lack of action in tackling the coronavirus makes sense. Let all the old buggers die.

Don't do it Boris. There'll be nobody left to vote for you next election. lol

Liverpool pathway or something similar.

I‘ve always hated and been upset by the phrase ’Liverpool Pathway’...I remember my own mum, a fighter for life, slowly dying in the Royal and I didn’t know why.....

Indeed. And look at HS2 now HS1.3, even with its scale back the cost of has risen from £27billion to £50billion and then some more no doubt.

It doesn't always work mate.

My mum had a stroke and the muscles in her throat were dead so she couldn't swallow. She was taking proteins intravenously for about a month with no signs of improvement. She was 91 and all the family accepted the medical advice to put her on pathway. Effectively they cut off her life support and were starving her to death, humanely of course. After 10 days without food and water the medical staff were astonished that she was still going. It transpires that whenever my mum said she was thirsty the nurses had a lly ice in the freezer that they gave her to suck for a minute or two. So they brought in the speech therapist to and it turns out she could swallow again. So they took her off pathway.

That was about 8 years ago. I think they may have stopped the practice now as it was, for all intents and purpose, euthanasia.

But enter COVID-!9. Completely legal AND more effective.

And lots of nothing about social care in the pantomime budget, so we have the Tory pathway as Dr Osler once coined, pneumonia old man's friend.

Strong link to eugenics (amazingly defended by some on here), then this approach to the corona virus against the thinking of the nations who have been more successful in dealing with it.

Maybe voting these in for so many decades has been a bad idea and you're about to find out a really hard way.
