You can't deride the electorate of Wigan.
We've been told for three and a half years on here that the majority wanted Brexit and they know exactly what they want so it must be delivered, therefore I am quite sure whatever they vote for in the general election will be abided by without a peep off anyone.
Or do some people just slag them off when it suits their agenda.

Everyone should read the Brexit party's policies as published on their website. Not found any of their ideas yet that I disagree with! Political reform-making sure Postal Voting works,abolishing the House of Lords, make MPs subject to recall etc. Scrapping HS2, more money for the regions outside London, More money for Social Care etc,Scrapping Inheritance Tax, Reduce Business Rates in High Streets outside M25, Scrap interest on Student Loans and many more ideas! Time we had a political shake up as the present 2 (or 3) party system is discredited!

Quite frankly LG Nigel Fararge has proven himself as big a liar as every other political headliner in this whole sorry affair.
You can't discount and ignore the lies and false promises from one group while supporting the lies and unrealistic promises and claims of another. You may as well vote for someone because you think he is wearing a better looking tie than his opponent.
Too many people, telling too many lies and making too many unrealistic promises solely to feather their own nests, together with too many people guillable enough to not realise it......... that is the root cause of this fiasco.
I am not really a betting man LG but I would quite happily put a fiver on us still being where we are in 5 years time if the mood took me

The Labour Party was founded in 1900 although its origins go back further. During this time they have spent about 25 years in power and it took them 24 years to win a general election and take power.
Now please be kind enough to tell us how much experience the Brexit party has.

Another question for you.
If someone was to send you an email telling you that you were due a tax refund of say £453.45 you would be naturally sceptical and ask yourself several questions before making a conclusion as to if the claim was genuine.
On that basis why would you blindly accept the words of a less than trustworthy individual who promises you and the rest of the country £200bn without asking yourself some similar searching questions?

Just read the Brexit party manifesto and election pledges. Seems they are hitting on a number of issues contentious with the British public totally unrelated to Brexit.......no surprises there
On the back of this what I can't understand is why the ruling parties haven't done these things themselves already, both to make the uk a better place for us ( because that is their basic function) and of course to bolster support. Could it be they know something that Nigel doesn't, could it even be Nigel does know something but isn't telling us?
The obvious questions are always the best

Then we can discuss where this figure of £200bn he has promised us is going to come from

Can't imagine it happening with a 16,000 plus majority. But it's possible.
I'm sure that a massive chunk of the 13,000 Tory voters would vote for the Brexit Party tactically (Tory voters would love to have an effective vote), regardless of whether there is a formal pact.
The big question in Wigan is, would the Labour Brexit voters desert Jeremy/Lisa in big enough numbers? I'm not so sure. But still lots of time left in the campaigns for events to happen.

I do think if Cameron hadn't failed in his pathetically inept attempt to stop UKIP from winning a few Tory seats by offering a in out referendum, virtually no one today would even be talking about,or even caring about,Brexit today. Three and a half years totally wasted on tearing our selves, and our country apart. And opening the the door wider to the greedy far right, and the dangerously foolish ultra left. Corbyn and the ultras have destroyed the party I have always backed, but no more!. Sorry rant over. Just my opinion.

How can you not like somebody like that
I used to love Steak & Chips, but I can't get hold of tender steak any more, what ever steak I buy and whatever price I pay and however hard I try to cook it properly, to keep it tender, the bloody thing ends up looking like, and tasting like a piece of shrivelled up leather
But going back to the days of proper steak, going to me butchers in Orrell for a 'SLAB' of Sirloin or Rump, and the butcher would put his knife on the side of beef and say how thick, and I would say as he slid his knife along, "a bit more"
Then I would cook it in butter and garlic, not a lot of garlic, but just enough to bring out the taste of the steak, and served along with real chips, deep fried in a proper chip pon, made with Lincolnshire Maris Pipers, and served with fresh frozen peas, seasoned with salt and pepper and vinegar, and washed down with loads of tea, not coffee or water, but tea and about 12 slices of white bread to make butties with

Thats another one, Whups. I'd forgot about that there has been that many sold
"The way our rail, energy and water industries have been run since they were sold off by the Conservatives is an absolute scandal."
"When these industries were privatised under Margaret Thatcher, we were promised it would increase efficiency, widen share ownership and generate investment. But the opposite happened. And rather than learning from their mistakes, the Conservative-led Coalition Government sold off Royal Mail for a fraction of its value, at the taxpayers’ expense, and extended the grip of private companies and finance further into day-to-day life.
Almost three decades after water was sold-off, share ownership is now largely in the hands of a small group of international investors – many of them based in tax havens. Meanwhile, prices have increased by 40 per cent and over a quarter of the amount consumers pay on bills goes towards servicing debt interest and paying out dividends."

The NHS doctors, both hospital doctors and the GP's in private practice, would never work under the American health care system.
It couldn't be made available to American providers, in any trade deal, unless it was in the election manifesto of a party wanting to be in goverment. It wouldn't get the support of the voters supporting any party in such an event.
The odds are that the EU UK trade deal will include health care. Most of the NHS prescription drugs and diagnostic equipment are sourced from within the EU.
The latest statistics from the major London hospitals regarding stabbing victims shows a marked reduction in fatalities arising from newly devloped protocols. Further proof that large specialist hospitals working in conjunction with highly trained paramedics is the future for the more serious aspects of health care. The more that people fight against reconfiguration of the NHS towards that goal then the more that the lesser demanding services will continue to be put to tender.
Replied: 13th Nov 2019 at 17:31
Yes and I agree that the utilities should have not been sold off, but I disagree with that idiot wanting to nationalise them all at once, which will bankrupt the country, it should be done on a piece by piece basis, the ones in most priority like the railways should be the first to be taken back into state ownership.

Stabbing victims are a piss in the ocean, Gaffer, when related to the Health Service as a whole.

When (if) the UK eventually leaves the EU, will it ease this burden on the UK health service?

You don’t realise how much the Labour Party has changed since your grandparents day. They may well have reservations about an automatic vote for Labour if they were here today.
I was chatting to a former a Labour MP a few months ago who doesn’t feel welcome anymore at meetings of the local constituency Labour Party.
In the same way the NHS has changed beyond recognition since it’s inception in 1948.
Talk to anyone of lengthy service in the NHS and they will tell you how much waste and excess cost there is. The cost of second class postage for patient’s letters runs out at over £80 million a year. It’s exactly the same process as in 1948 apart from the scale. Text or email for the patients with those facilities would slash that cost to almost zero as well as the associated administrative costs.
Litigation from patients costs about £2.5 billion a year. There is no quality assurance scheme in the NHS that would reduce that cost of liability.
In 1948 air travel was considered hazardous, nowadays it’s the safest form of travel mainly because of the continuous improvement arising from quality assurance principles.
The NHS needs clinically led reform but it is stymied because any attempt to do so results in mass protests of privatisation.
Back to the election. Very few, if any, electors would vote for an NHS under the influence of the US administration as part of a trade deal.
In my view, as I’ve said before, the NHS faces a future more in Europe rather than across the Atlantic.

The guy from Liverpool University who compiled the report you refer to was interviewed by Andrew Neil last week. He wasn’t convincing with his answers especially when Andrew Neil said that American friends of his nipped over the border into Canada to buy their prescription drugs. Canada has a free trade deal with the US.
When President Trump rails against Americans overpaying for drugs he puts Canada in the same frame as the EU, including the UK. He does, however, have a point in that the US drug bill, converted to Sterling, of around £300 billion would be less than half of that figure based on European pricing. His problem is that very few administrators in the US are willing to investigate it along the lines of a European Competion inquiry or the UK control mechanism NICE.
If the Tories win the election with a decent majority I’ll have a £100 wager with you. At the end of the next Parliament the NHS will still be buying drugs on the present pricing basis. The Langley Health Bill will be amended to give more control of patient care to clinicians and the upper limit for the amount of private sector involvement with patients will be reduced nearer to the customary level of 6%.

Britain leaves the EU and as a result the NHS can buy its drugs from anywhere in the world, as long as the quality of those drugs is up to British standards, then surely the NHS will go for the best price, but on the basis of not just using one supplier, but using several in case one particular supplier has a problem, and it cannot supply the drug, and that what I have just described is 'logistics'
I would have thought that under those circumstances, market forces will bring down the cost of drugs, not put them up ...
How say you on that Whupsie

gaffer
quite right re postage,as a regular though unwilling attender at clinics,the waste is stupifying.i get two texts then a letter, why ?.i visited a friend quite recently in hospital and i took him a decent razor.
his words on receipt of that razor,was how the hell did you know i needed the razor.
well i too had been in hospital recently and the buyers of those razors and by the way they have cupboards full of the useless items must be ladies.
my attempt at a shave with one of those stuck on my chin and would not cut through my two day old stubble .painful,horrible and completely useless and the staff know all about them and yet they keep on purchasing rubbish products.
