I have been working for the NHS coming up to 2 years now after being made redundant from my old job. I’m not medical I work for the Estates Department, what I like to call one of the backbone services, we all work very hard to keep the hospital ticking over.

We are being transferred to a private facilities company under the umbrella of the NHS. We’ve been told the only thing changing will be our works polo shirt colours and emblem.

They are a bunch of lying two faced bastards, it is known as stealth privatisation. The hospital security has moved over, the electronics department has moved over, the domestic department has moved over, the porters have moved over, the MRI department is already private. Basically anything non medical IE. nurses, doctors, will be privatised in the next few years, for some twat to make money, everything ancillary.

I know the fucker Blair & his cronies had a hand in this when in power but I feel Corbyn & his cronies will try hard as they can to stop this. I’ve always voted Labour anyway and have done again.

I’m not really political, but all I’ll say is think about the poor, think about the sick, think about your children & grandchildren. The staff where I work are so committed to there jobs, I shit you not, student nurses in tears because patients they have looked after have passed away and they actually feel guilty for not doing more?? Compassionate human beings that care about something..... something real!

I’d also like to say Unison are an absolute waste of time, rolling over like a dumb dog to these bastards...

I’m not really intelligent enough to debate on these matters I admit, but all I’ll say is if you’re on an operating table in my workplace I’ll make sure the lights won’t go out, the equipment won’t cut out and you have enough loopy gas to get you through it...

Also this shite about Corbyn & the IRA & Hamas etc.. some people I know eg. Ex miners & steelworkers calling him anti British and treasonous... fuck off, Thatcher took your lives away from you and your families you stupid twats, he would of backed you to the hilt back then.. don’t believe the hype..

Cheers..

Not intelligent enough? You are right in the middle of it all and state your case eloquently and passionately.

I am hoping.... Praying. Please, please let social justice win.

Trying not to fuck shit up, since 1969

Very pleased with the results last night. The nasty party having to get in to bed with the nastiest party of them all to keep their shaky hand on power. I would've liked to have won but Labour's decimation at the last election in Scotland makes it a long road to climb. My prediction? May will soon be gone and we'll have another General Election by October. Left have to organise and have conversations around who best defeats the Tories in different areas.

My MP is IDS. Our seat has been held by the Tories for 80 years, by Winston Churchill, Norman Tebbit and IDS. Last night, with a 15 per cent swing to Labour, we made it a marginal. Next election will be his Portillo moment. We're coming for him. I suggest, wherever you lot are, you do the same.

Thursday was uplufting. I still have a far too comfortable Tory MP but there has been a change in tone about what might be possible and also the public perception of Jeremy Corbyn despite dopey fuckers like Chris Leslie and the heart attack in waiting Alistair Campbelk. The turnaround is remarkable andthe media in general is having to re-assess where it actually fits in to the whole process. It's an ongoing campaign until we do have another election and time for Labour of all shades to get behind its leader

And I'd urge anyone who isn't a member to join up and help. On line and for as little as a pound. x
