    I would definitely criticise the government for their PIP process. It is disgusting, degrading and they should be held to account. But no, they instead offer extended million pounds worth of contracts to these private companies who have no idea what they are doing. My wife whom has MS went through this. The private company had an ex dental nurse as her interrogator! Nothing short of a disgrace.

    You must have clicked on the wrong link :emoticon-0105-wink:

    "While lower growth in health and social care spending since 2010 may be behind the increase in deaths, these findings should be treated with caution as the research doesn’t prove this is the case. Reduced spending is one of a number of possible explanations for the results."

    Well yes, I did read that, and it says nothing whatsoever. Perhaps between zero and 120,000 unnecessary deaths have been caused by austerity then. Would you say it was zero?

    That's how negotiations should be carried out!

    Just started watching QT on catch up.
    It's only been on a few minutes and already that pathetic BBC bias slave Bruce has allowed the left winger to speak for ages, with a tirade of criticism towards Boris.
    Then, she allows a Boris supporter a few seconds before interrupting her and continuing the tirade against Johnson.
    Pathetic bias. They don't even try to hide it anymore.

    I'm no Boris fan, but I'm finding it quite amusing to witness the left wingers like the BBC and some on here getting their collective knickers in a twist over the Tory election and Boris becoming Prime Minister.

    This, whilst advocating an extreme Marxist in Corbyn to become Prime Minister.

    Very entertaining.

    My God. This programme is like reading the Guardian editorial.

    Truly awful.

    They’re both inappropriate for the gig for wildly different reasons.

    The one good thing that could come from Johnson getting it is he wouldn’t be able to snipe from the outside any longer as he will forever until he’s given the chance to show just how lazy and incompetent he is on the biggest stage. He’s a genuinely terrifying prospect for vast swathes of the population before even thinking about Brexit but he went to Eton and is a bit islamophobic which is what we want really.

    Please give up this myth that the BBC is left wing when Farage gets more airtime than anyone.

    For anyone to still deny that the BBC is left wing biased is, frankly, hilarious.

    Next you'll claim that the earth is flat and that the sun rises in the West!
    Had to stop watching QT.
    Watch it back and see how much time is given to left wingers compared to everyone else.
    It's startling.

    But they give fruitcake far right politicians disproportionate airtime as they go to painful lengths to represent even the gammoniest gammons.

    Nobody could ever have enough air-time to slate Boris Johnson mate. The bloke is a complete ****wit.

    And that stupid bitch on QT saying the tax cuts to the rich would help everyone. No wonder these tits dont get air-time when they just spout nonsensical bollocks. Even the audience laughed!

    True mate. The thing is, when I was earning good money a couple of years ago that put into the 40% bracket I actually felt good that I was paying more....purely down to the fact that I could afford to and saw it as a ‘duty’.
    These greedy ****s hate the thought of it.

    You'd see left-wing bias in the weather report, Col.

    To be fair to Col, as a bit on the Left myself.......Francesca did come over to any point as if she was shagging Jezza and wanted to have his babies......she made a good point though that it was only Jez and Macca who used to turn up to support disabled protest...true men of the people
