I’ve realised that the NHS aren’t as rudderless as most think, they obviously have a strategy. Certainly around obesity anyway. A few days after a damning report on how obese the UK’s population has become, came an even more damning report on how the system is majorly failing the elderly. Surely this is deliberate strategy, by keeping the elderly malnourished, the obesity statistics will fall. Makes sense to me.
Billy Bragg and his mates occupied London’s ‘Square Mile’ as a protest against global corporate greed. He’s a very passionate and angry lad, and it makes me wonder just how much money he personally lost in the banking crisis to make him so animated. On a more serious note, I feel sorry for the police, against who much of these protester’s anger is directed. They are suffering from pay freezes and staff cuts just like the rest of us, and don’t deserve to be targeted by protesters as fair game in the fight against the bankers.
