    Shadow Health Secretary Jon Ashworth took to the Today Programme this morning to claims there has been ‘a huge increase in the number of cancelled operations’. The only problem is their own research shows that the number of operation cancellations is falling…

    Labour’s Freedom of Information request actually shows that the number of cancelled operations fell by 3% this year – from 81,565 in 2017/18 to 78,981 in 2018/19, accounting for 1% of all operations.

    Labour’s attempted NHS attacks have really not been going down well

    Wonder where all the social media lies originate, all the memes that are on Facebook, Twitter and on here.. are all these memes just banter? I know some people on my faceache buy into the lies, even if facts are presented to prove they are wrong these people still carry on posting the same old nonsense... maybe I’m alone in experiencing this?

    General election 2019: Labour’s four-day week ‘to cost taxpayers £17bn’

    Jeremy Corbyn’s plan to introduce a 32-hour working week has been challenged by business leadersGARETH FULLER/PA
    Jeremy Corbyn’s aim to introduce a four-day working week would cost the taxpayer at least £17 billion a year because of the impact on the public sector wage bill, a new analysis has shown.
    John McDonnell, the shadow chancellor, told the Labour conference in September that the party would reduce average full-time hours to 32 a week within a decade “with no loss of pay”. People should “work to live, not live to work”, he said.
    Research by the Centre for Policy Studies, a centre-right think tank, has found that reducing the hours of public sector employees, including doctors, nurses, teachers, firefighters and police officers, would impose a significant extra burden on the Treasury because the workforce would have to expand.

    No I've got a mate (seriously have) who no matter what evidence is provided to the contrary, still posts blatant propaganda lies.

    Now if that was Corbyn it would be on every front page tomorrow regardless of whether true or not, but unfortunately the majority of our media is right wing owned so print what suits their agendas and wallets!
