      @@franceshicks5337 But then that advocates for people to be forced to work through declining working conditions in order to keep services running. It's not sustainable: a big reason for the increased wait times is NHS staff moving to private care or abroad due to the conditions they work under. Forcing people not to strike only means the jobs become less and less desirable, less and less filled, and the services less and less efficient. The Daily Mail doesnt care about that, obviously, it doesnt fit their vile anti-human rights agenda.

    I remembered some of the this "milk thief" practices, as Brixton residents call her, when I saw a video of a side of residents and British miners celebrating her death.
    It is neither iron nor glass!!
    But it derives its "iron"
    from war
    "La Gerra de ilas Malvenas"
    And who of all who sank like iron ships and men in the depths of the Atlantic, to achieve a slight victory for the navy over the hesitant Argentines?
    Those who did not calculate it well and adopted equipment from France and America, which gave the kingdom everything is ready!
    To postpone the conquest of the closest country to the Maluian Islands
    We even heard in the eighties the press buzzing with the phrase:;
    Sink an Argentine ship to save Margaret Thatcher!
    The Coventry sank and many ships on both sides, we regretted the men,
    But this creature Thatcher..has invaded everyone! The delay of the British to Argentina's annexation of the Malwen Islands was recorded as a personal victory even greater than the size of its island!
    By this it terrorized most of the Irish and their resistance, as it dwarfed the parties and weakened the unions
    But stay is only for God
