Interesting.
And what about hypochondriac people or people abusing of the time of the doctors to get the treatments that they want or people going from doctors to doctors?
Don't you get abuse from some patients?

Why do you have private medicine if your system is so efficient?

I ask this, because in Switzerland... apart the hospital, everything is private. We all have to pay our own private health insurance with franchise.
It costs at minimum 2500 $ for a franchise of 2500 $ and at the maximum about 5000 $ for a franchise of about 200 $.
Then even if we reach our franchise, our insurance do not reimburse all the costs. Even if we don't abuse.

There is always abuse of any system, the biggest one we have right now, is EU Nationals, who work here and bring their pregnant and terminally ill family members here for free treatment and benefits. This includes the millions from other Countries allowed in by the Blair regime.

You register with a doctors surgery, and see that doctor when required, it is hard to go from surgery to surgery, as the other one probably will not see you.

Private medicine is very limited and in the main is for cosmetic surgery, and people who choose to pay, freedom of choice. It is often quicker for non urgent operations.

Our system is damaged because of the £600 Billion worth of debt, built by Blair and Brown under Private Funding Initiative, the payments for which, about £50 billion a year, have to be paid before any money can be spent on patient care. As Corbyn said 'The NHS is safe from Privatisation under Labour!' Yep right!

That we don't have an annual purge for politicians.

IT'S HAPPENED AGAIN!

On her Twitter account she says that she was in London on 24th October.

The thing is Ladies and Gentlemen is that I WAS in London on that SAME DAY!

I know Chelsea is obviously easy to spot but for all I know I could have been walking down an adjacent street from her, or just walked passed a shop and not realized that she was in it!

Looking at that video I'm not entirely sure where she is. I just hope it wasn't the Serpentine in Hyde Park at between 2-3pm because that was more or less where I was at that time.

SO CLOSE! This is the SECOND time this sort of thing has happened and it has REALLY ANNOYED me!

I do sometimes wonder if I'll ever met her at all....

As my dad always says, if you don't want people staring at the puppies, don't put them in the pet shop window.

I am p-ssed off with Brexit, big time.

Look at it like this...If we have to go to war and there is conscription who are we going to conscript?...fair point?

Our company's have got lazy, training now for workers is a joke.

Stop saying you are gonner move your HQ's Just f-ck off.

We do have a right to retire at 65 and it is a right, we lost a lot of decent lads, young lads to give us that right, they paid with their lives, so f-ck you, you over paid ass wipes who call yourselves MP's.

If you don't like the rules, just P-off.

The British people voted, obey or just get lost.

As if any attractive young actress would go for that! He is either a liar or totally deluded. I notice too that he has gone for the old diversionary trick of seeking "therapy". Excuse me while I roll my eyes repeatedly.

It looks like you called it right. Weinstein only spent a week in rehab. I am sure the facility offers 1 week programs, but any serious rehabilitation program would typically last at least 28 days. A one week program would be more or less diagnostic. Truly arresting and changing such behavior requires great commitment and a lot of work.

Weinstein is denying any non-consensual sex, which he must do as the statute of limitations will often not run out for criminal charges and settlements will not have been reached for lawsuits. I don't know what goes through the minds of such predators. The fellows who have crossed my path have suffered traumatic childhood sexual experiences, have been diagnosed with some sort of psychotic disorder, or both.

George H.W. Bush has drawn some fire for grabbing butts, but that may be more symptomatic of dementia. When I was a teen, a group of us went Christmas caroling at local nursing homes. One of the wheelchair bound old ladies grabbed me, and gave a very wet "French kiss." Fortunately, I was not scarred for life, but notice I still remember the incident 50+ years later.

Brexit

It's on the news every day of the week - just bloody hurry up and get on with it. Of course the EU is putting obstacles in the way - we send them £millions and they don't want us to stop. When did it become impossible to leave something you joined ? I hope some other countries decide to leave and experience all this shit.
Why is everyone so scared and all gloom and doom? We buy far more from europe than we sell. If they put 20% on English Cheddar, let's put 30% on Brie and Camenbert.
Most electronic items come from China, Japan and Korea. I can live without overpriced German Cars, Belgian chocolate and everthing from France.
The French want to remember they'd be speaking German and eating Saurkraut if we hadn't sent our young men to liberate them. It really pisses me off ! Fuck them all I say

This is a very tricky one, because as you say, Bush is now 93 years old. I know someone who knew a girl who met former England football manager Bobby Robson towards the end of his life, and when she asked for a photograph with him, there was some touching that would be deemed 'inappropriate', however, the girl in question was not offended by this, because she could see that the man was extremely ill, and she didn't believe he was entirely aware of what he was doing.

I remember reading an article by the comedy writer Peter Baynham many years ago in which he stated that when his father lay on his deathbed suffering from terminal cancer, surrounded by his family and medical staff, addled by pain-killing drugs, his father suddenly yelled to his mother "Oh shut up and play with my balls, woman!". Baynham said he likes to tell people this story just so he can watch them struggle to look solemn and sympathetic while trying to suppress a snigger.
