A Police Officer was sacked recently for having sex whilst on duty. When Prescott did this they gave him a peerage.

Re: The Tories
 

Had a couple of TORY councillors round the other night canvassing in Baxenden. They hadn't a bloody clue.....asked them about privatising the NHS and how it is crucifying the service and quality of care given to patients...they didnt know what to say except "er what about the care you get with BUPA"....I said who the heck in ACCY can afford to pay BUPA rates"...they just shrugged their shoulders....asked them about the extra windturbines that 99% of people dont want...she said I dont agree with them..but then said she wasnt allowed to vote against them because she had an underlying interest in something or other that was connected to them......All she kept saying was "would you spend money you didnt have like the Labour Govt did"...when I said but the TORY govt is now borrowing and spending money they dont have...she said " well they aren't borrowing as much"......I suppose she paid for her Mortgage in cash then, rather than borrowing off the bank money she doesnt have.... to pay for her home......CLUELESS

When was Prescott ever in the Police force?????????????????

Re: The Tories
 

Some of us in Ossy can, it's part of my benefits package with work. Unfortunately it only covers me, if I had started working for them a few years earlier it would have covered the rest of my family.

Re: The Tories
 

Also unfortunately Neil, i worked wi guy in late 80s who had the same package wi work, until he had summat that couldn't be cured, BUPA then removed him from their register.:( see the implications then if we ever lose the NHS? summat these Tory scumbags would love to do.:(

Re: The Tories
 

I think most packages have limits. So does the NHS though and it was in the news recently again how they wont pay for some life prolonging cancer treatment drugs

Re: The Tories
 

No they won't pay for some cancer drugs but they willl pay for a donor sperm bank so that single women/lesbians can become mothers.
Talk about having your priorities skewed.

Re: Re: The Tories
 

It's down to life choices, if I was a lesbian, I would do anything to avoid a cock up.
So what alternative can we as a caring society do to ensure they get a house, benefits and an alternative to working for a living?
Personally I wouldn't allow them to claim unless the sperm donor is willing to contribute to the child's upkeep, the winker.

Re: The Tories
 

Having a child is not a 'right'.......you might say that having treatment for cancer isn't a right either......having cancer could kill you(even though the chances of a remission are greatly improved)....not becoming a mother because your sexuality is of a same sex partnership, will not kill you(not directly anyway).

The drug that is going to give women six months longer to live is seen as 'uneconomic'...this, despite the fact that those who have trialled the drug have lived far longer than the six months this drug is supposed to extend life by.

The drug has been in development for more than ten years....the company that developed it(Roche) have offered the drug at 60% of its cost, but still the NHS say it is uneconomic......they only wanted to pay 40% of the cost.

Re: The Tories
 

Out of interest where yeh told yer package had limits when it was given yeh? cos i know fer sure this chap wasn't.;)

Re: The Tories
 

Of course having a child isn't a right, if a lesbian chooses to have a child without physical contact with a man, she should go to the pound shop get a turkey baster, use that, but the guy should still be classed as the father and be on the birth certificate and contribute to its upkeep before she can claim any benefits.
Otherwise it's an unfair system for 'natural' parents.

Re: The Tories
 

Before I get childless couples wanting to get me stoned, you, I am happy with the system helping, an unfortunate couple prepared to bring a child up in a normal, he verses she environment is something to be encouraged.

Re: The Tories
 

Less....I agree with both of your last two posts.
A very common sense approach. If we can see this then why on earth can't the powers that be see it too?
Oh yes, because it contravenes the skewed idea of equality......the two females can reproduce without the help of a male......an easier task than two males reproducing without a female.
