Whilst the BBC is impartial and independent and whatever etc. Key positions have been packed with Tory supporters/donors/friends.
It’s no surprise they toe the government line, especially for their fellow Tories

Non-Brit here. Can someone explain to me what makes up a Tory, and why?

A Tory is the Conservative Party.
They are to the right. Although, if it’s US politics you are used to they would probably be considered center or old-school right - not this new Right bullshit that’s prevalent these days

So, their party revolves around thinly veiled plans to divert money to the rich, and tighten their control over the common people?

Torys have been buying up the land that NHS hospitals are on and jacking up their rents

…then railing on and on about the ever rising costs of health care

Playing the long game until some crisis comes and then poof, welcome to the American Health* care system, you give us everything you own and we’ll give you 3 months to live. Maybe.

And forget about dental and vision. That’s for rich people.
