He's nothing compared to Corbyn, who is still insisting that the NHS is up for sale. Who does he think will be taken in by this?

Well, the tuth is that only the civil servants have been scoping the nature of possible negotiations - Conservative ministers have not been involved.

So bang goes that deflection story from Corbyn.

That's quite an audacious claim that the Civil Service are undermining Ministers and wasting resourcing considering possible options that will not happen.

I see on my day off you've continued to peddle the Conservative at all cost mantra.

They are all preparatory meetings ahead of formal trade talks.
The main push for "privatisation" of the NHS came under Labour.

Doesn't matter if the Conservatives want to push further though now, does it?

so in 2 years of trade talks, there has been no involvement of Government Ministers to review progress and provide direction?

Arguably I could believe the second part, but due to incompetence on the part of Ministers rather than it being the normal practice in the Civil Service.

Nothing at all has been agreed. It's just things they might want to discuss and agree upon. "Everything is up for discussion" is very different to "Agree to everything or nothing will be agreed".

And discussing items that are non-negotiable is a total waste of time.

Nothing has been agreed but we certainly have the Ministerial steer.

At best, it's disingenuous of Labour to squeal about "privatisation", And the evidence of pushing for much further privatisation is...........?
