How will Brexit effect the NHS?

While I have explored many areas that will be impacted by Brexit I have yet to delve into the effects it will have on the National Health Service. I know the headlines and some basic facts which have been spread around but, like many, I have not taken the time to really look behind the propaganda and basic headlines. In this article, I have decided to change that. Here I try and investigate some of the key areas as I see them; staffing, medical supplies, budgets and research.

"None of you have impressed me" - Tory leadership quick update

Well that cleared everything up didn't it…. OK maybe not. To start with it was the wrong format. The BBC claimed there was not enough time to pull a representative audience together. Weird as Channel 4, an organisation with less resources, managed to do it with even less time. It also needed to be longer and the candidates needed to show a little decorum or at least be put in their place more. I got the feeling they wouldn't have tried to talk over a male presenter as much, and that is not a dig at Emily Maitlis, who I felt did very well, it is a reflection of the candidates lack of respect for a female presenter trying to do her job. Makes you wonder how they would react when speaking with Angela Merkel, Jacinda Ardern, Erna Solberg or any of the many other female heads of state. Feels like an embarrassment for the UK just waiting to happen.

Tory "Leadership"

Wow what a selection we have to, well not choose from since we don't get a vote on who our next Prime Minister is, all we can do is wonder which drug using, elitist, selfish,.....you get the point, will take up the reigns and lead us into ruin.  From the time we all knew this was going to happen the candidates have been spouting some of worst ideas to come into their heads. Actually, scratch that they are probably not the worst ideas they have which is even more worrying.
