Was going to reply to this in another way but got sidetracked by the search results: I actually have no comment here.
Watching Nicola Sturgeon on Marr. I do like the way she has of ‘you asked me a question, shut up and let me answer it’
As long as your thinking bypass and I'll give you the example put to dear John and why he wouldn't answer it. Marr gave the example of a private company having built their own unit on hospital grounds, he said across the car park and he used an example of knee's. He said, the private part takes the pressure off the eu, it does it for the same cost per operation as the nhs, how will you privatise it for no cost? John said well when the contract runs out, we simply won't renew it, we will still be spending the same money but in a different building but under the nhs banner. He made no mention how he would buy that private companies building, or replace it with a new one, how they would buy or replace the equipment from the private company, the extra staffing cost say in pensions that the nhs will now have to pay, the sickness and absence costs the private company used to pay rather than the nhs It's the same blank stare of a rabbit in a the headlights that simply saying "we'll wait til the contract runs out" in the case of trains where will the money come from on day one of a government train service??? rent new trains, buy the old trains from the lost contract provider, buy the private companies who do the maintenance on the engines, carriages, staffing costs of swap over, government obligation pressure of transfer of pensions to public liability etc etc If his level of thinking on renationalising only goes as far as we will run it at no extra cost,Whilst ignoring the full cost, then the 95% of people will be paying for more of these back door taxes and labour would have lied and only the labour die hard brain dead believe labours numbers but even some of those if honest know the numbers do not ad up
the only one you will have seen on the box or in the press with experience of governing and introducing and delivering legislation. with no support from the press or those that own what is transmitted in to that box in the corner. unbiased commentators say she is the best communicator the uk has in politics.
All pretty selective in your report back as per. Don't bother asking me when, where how much i won't play your stupid games .
Not selective at all but yours is the typical labour response of head in the sand and the russians did it Easy to prove port if you wish, iplayer catch up, Marr on Sunday, watch the interview you will see all the references and costing mentioned and the same blank stare of "it won't cost any extra"
