CatMom916@ChrisMayLA6 I've posted this more than once on various sites: I am an American with good health insurance. I'm lucky. But I pay abt $300/mo for it. It doesn't cover every thing I need. I pay a part of my prescriptions. I pay in part for tests like the MRI I got ($200). And, if I have a serious illness or accident, I pay 20% of the entire bill. If you are a UK citizen, you need to fight for the NHS.
BobMNot often I agree with Nick Ferrari…!

He told the BBC’s Question Time that was the only way to make sure the disgusting practice was ended.
Juggling With Eggs‘While the business secretary, Kemi Badenoch, was accused of “a massive climbdown”, barristers say the retention of sweeping “undemocratic” ministerial powers and the removal of the “interpretive effect” of EU law will blow up decades of legal precedent set by courts in Britain and makes for legislation like that found in authoritarian states.’

"We must never stop calling out the damage Brexit is doing to our economy, society, culture and standing in the world. We must continue to point out that Brexit was a decision made by one generation, in response to a campaign led by a now utterly discredited prime minister, Boris Johnson. The younger generations whose future has in so many ways been spoiled, and indeed stolen, have every right to fight to have the decision revisited.

Plague PoemsMy British friend tells me
he has a new appreciation
for what life
must have been like
for a medieval peasant
as he too
is trying to survive a plague
while hating the new king.
