Corbyn vows to resist US takeover of British health service
[PRESSTV] Leader of Britannia’s main opposition Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn has vowed to fight US efforts to influence UK’s prestigious National Health Service (NHS).

In an address to people protesting against US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
’s visit to Britannia on Tuesday, Corbyn said he and the Labour would not allow the Americans to take over the NHS as part of a comprehensive trade deal that could be signed between Britannia and the US after UK's withdrawal from the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
this year.

"We will not stand for that. We will fight with every last breath of our body to defend the principle of a healthcare system free at the point of need for everybody as a human right," said Corbyn.

The comments came as Trump said during a presser with British Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday that the NHS should be on the table during talks to reach a comprehensive trade deal between Washington and London.
What an idiot. Opening up purchasing to American medications and devices does not mean America wants to take over the semi-functional National Health Service. Really, who would want to? It would be worse than rationalizing the VA.

#1 TW. Just with respect to my own VA health experience; they have improved over the last few years, and I think some of them are quite good. The facility I use is the White River Junction, VT facility. I avoid the Boston VA, and sometimes use the Northampton, MA facilities, but WRJ is good.

And yes, Corbyn is an idiot.
