It isn't so much politics as it is religion that makes Americans homophobic.

He's an Islamist and pretty much a dictator.

He also constantly blackmails the EU with the threat of opening the floodgate of "refugees".

I have to pay twice if I want adequate health care; high taxes and insurance.  Your narrative is ruined by that.

There are lots of drugs and treatments that you can't get on the NHS but can get privately (insurance and/or self-pay).    This means the government agrees they are safe and effective, but they don't want to pay for it.    This list grows bigger all the time.  I gave some examples earlier, but my sciatica won't be treated properly because the surgery is no longer allowed on the NHS.  Nope, I have to do injections 4 - 6 times a day to deaden the nerve.  Quality of life doesn't mean shit to the NHS/government and that's why they keep adding those things to the list they don't cover.

The UK state loony bins are part of the prison system or they are private.    The guy who killed MP Jo Cox should have been in a loony bin, but he and his family couldn't afford it and he wasn't sent to one in a criminal court.  Well, now he's in one for murdering an MP.  Many times, people sent to prison loony bins are let go due to overcrowding and are walking free within a couple of days.

"Care in the community" is the current fad in the NHS.  Rather than keeping people in hospitals, loony bins, etc, etc they put them back in the community and hope some charity or local council will deal with them.    This is costing the local councils a fortune and so council taxes have to go up to match the costs or we lose services.

As the NHS is part of the government, they rubber stamp things that most medical groups would reject outright.  We see this with trash incinerators.  The NHS rubber-stamped an incinerator in my area that will be put right next to an elementary school and the plum plotter shows the smoke will blow into the neighborhood.

Well, FBI corruption kept her out of prison.

The Hillary and Trump investigations have destroyed all credibility the DOJ and FBI ever had.

I'm speaking up about the gun crime in Chicago.

Where were you when Obama was caging those kids in the photos that the MSM kept hidden for 4 years until Trump?!  BTW, this has nothing to do with Chicago's crime rates, so you are deflecting and doing a shite job at it by bringing it into this topic.

I am anti-leftist.  I'm not a Trump supporter.  If you remember (posts are still on the site) I supported impeaching Trump if he is found to have broken the law.  The difference between you and I is that I want actual proof of wrongdoing and not just feelz.  The same thing with Hillary.  If there is actual proof then send her ass to prison.  And NO, the investigation wasn't valid as we saw from the FBI actions.

I'm for net neutrality.

Nothing you said has anything to do with the topic unless you are an advocate of suppression of free speech based on political views.

I do love how leftist always support and demand that their enemies be banned from social media, then scream like bitches when they get treated in a similar way.

I do love how leftists love to lie about what their enemies say, such as the lies told about me here on this site.  I never called anyone a "faggot nigger" and the site records show that, but a leftist demanded I get "fired" for calling him that.  I never called for the genocide of anyone, as the site records show, but several leftists claimed I did.

But again, I do love how leftists hate free speech unless it's them telling lies about others.

If he did use his power, like Obama did, you batshit crazy leftists would lose your minds.

If you want decent medical care in the UK, you need to have insurance.      How is that better than in the US?!

Beauracrats decide what treatments you can have (or not) and most of the time it's politically motivated, like the breast cancer treatment I mentioned above.  The criteria for treatments are ever changing and you are always chasing that elusive "criteria met" letter saying you can now get the treatment you need.

As I have pointed out several times before, the NHS is quite sexist in how they dole out treatments, or not.

There is also a massive problem with "postcode lottery" in the NHS.    If you live in one postcode you may get a treatment, but if you live across the street in a different postcode you may be denied the treatment.

You are at the mercy of politicians as to what medical services you can get.  Mental health, dermatology, and many other specialties are extremely difficult to get through the NHS.  Where I live, unless you are committed to the state loony bin (which is over full), you have to go through a charity or a private clinic to get mental health help.

I know my pathetic stalker won't have the balls or mental ability to discuss this.

@tkchau:

RIP!

Way too many great songs to even know where to start.

@aadam101:

What makes you think we don't have the same problems in the US?  At least in the UK you can get an appointment to be accidentally cancelled.  Many people in the US can't get the appointment at all because they don't have insurance.  Unfortunately we elected a President who lied about giving people healthcare.

I'm a dual national (US/UK).

I never had a problem getting an appointment in the US, with or without insurance.    Also, why don't you have insurance in this day and age?!

Under Obama-care, everyone in my family that already had insurance saw their premiums skyrocket.

And NO, the UK appointments that get canceled are not done accidentally.  It's done on purpose to meet government targets.

They built a new state of the art hospital in Glasgow.  It was severely undersized to and unable to meet the needs of the area.

Considering how corrupt the FBI and DOJ are, I don't think it will ever happen.

@aadam101:

I'm not sure what you want them to say.  Most of the guns used in crimes in Chicago come from out of state.

Let's not forget how much the people I mentioned would have race baited the hell out of a single incident against a black if the gunman was white, but they are totally silent when the gunmen are black.

Clearly, black lives only sometimes matter to the race baiters.

depends on the room

citrus (most of the house) and vanilla (bedroom)

I have no interest in it.

The professor has a history of doing shite research, some of which is shown in the article.

Man-hating racist and the mother of vaginalism, Emmeline Pankhurst (and her daughters), is being blackwashed in a new musical.

So, when is the left gonna explain why it's "evil" to whitewash a fictional character, but it's ok to make white historical figures non-white?!

Hypocrisy, much?!

Ben Shapiro offered to debate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, in turn, said that men offering to debate women, without the woman's consent, is the same as catcalling.  In other words, a man has to get a woman's permission first, before he can offer to debate her.

This is the rising star being paraded around by the left as their shining beacon for what the DNC is.

The left has seriously lost their fucking minds.

The most shocking thing about the article is that they mention Boris Johnson being the victim of online trolls.  This shows that both sides are being trolls.

The worrying part is what exactly is "trolling" to them?

Is disagreeing with MP Jess Phillips' man-hating vaginalism deemed trolling?

Is calling out politicians' lie "trolling"?

We know the left deems everything they disagree with as "trolling".

Eric Clanton, the bike lock liberal professor, who smashed at least 11 people over the head with his bike lock, gets 3 years probation.

Prosecutors gave him a plea deal.

Fucking disgusting.
