Please focus on the facts - Boris & Co campaigned on a £350m a week pledge for the NHS once we leave the EU.

To be fair the "let's give our NHS 350M" is a lot more damning.

But it's still a suggestion and not a promise.

I think we've been through all this before, several times.

That didn't give a value as to how much of the 350M we use.[COLOR="Silver"]

The Campaign's marketing literature stated explicitly that £350m pw would be invested in the NHS.

I agree we've been through this before so why people start mentioning buses is beyond me. The fact remains that these politicians had an opportunity to honour their promise today. They failed democracy by not doing so.

Cheap insults and digs at one another is not acceptable and it must stop. Last warning.

Diane Abbott spurns David Davis in Strangers’ Bar
Quote:

After the government’s Brexit Bill passed through the Commons unamended, whips, government ministers and Brexiteers are in the mood to celebrate.

Alas, not everyone is on the same page. Although Diane Abbott was well enough to vote for Article 50 today, the shadow home secretary is far from happy about the government’s plans for a ‘Tory Brexit’. So, it was unfortunate timing that she ran into an elated David Davis in Strangers’ bar this evening. Riding high on the day’s events, the Brexit secretary approached Abbott and proceeded to try and plant a celebratory kiss on her. Her response? Abbott proceeded to tell him to ‘f— off’.
:rofl:

Blimey! He must have been on something stronger than a commons victory to even try that stunt let alone be seen dead in the same room as that "woman". :D

Well I certainly didn't vote leave to have all that money going to the NHS, which frankly is a bottomless pit. The NHS needs a total re-think more in line with the original intention of Aneurin Bevin. The money would be better spent in adult social care and paying off our debts.

The NHS needs a root and branch review. People should not be permitted in this country unless they have private health insurance so we don't end up providing them with a free service at our expense. A&E should admit only genuine emergencies. All doctors surgeries should be open through the evenings and at weekends. That would be a good start.

I voted to leave to get better control over immigration (so that we admit only those who have job offers or who will not be reliant on the State) and to regain our sovereignty over stifling EU laws. I suspect that most thinking leavers did so for much the same reasons.

Are you sure you're not confused about that? Maybe what you really wanted to do was stay within the EU... :D

As a WHITE ENGLISH person I think Brexit is a good thing. An yes, the opinion of White English people is important.

Wonder if you'll last as long as you did last few times you were here. Your posting style (and dropping the 'd' from and) is just such a give away.

Cheers
