What political suicide? The Tories return to 45% popularity every couple of weeks no matter what they actually do. People love Boris, allegedly.

I have no fucking idea why, but there it is.

That is not dead which can eternal lie to the public, and with strange aeons even normal people will vote Tory.

Juxtapose Boris with the last few PMs. That's why people 'allegedly' love him.

He has character, considerable charisma (no matter how strange that seems) and a wit which he deliberately wraps in humour. I like Boris. I don't agree with him 100%, but I do like him.

I suppose the problem arises when people can not disassociate the two.

Still. I think his popularity would take a major hit if he tampered with the NHS. I mean, that's part of why people like him. His various promises to better fund the NHS.

Edit: Though I'm not sure how much can be inferred from the source material, tbf.

I'm sorry Britposters. There's nothing we can do for you now. Look...don't tell NI. At that age, switching homes I mean...would they even know the difference? Better to spare them the trauma.

I'm not certain on what you mean. Are you referring to Boris' NI policies?

Honestly I think the Tories will continue to hover at 45% for as long as they hold brexit hostage. Wonder what their polls will look like in 2314 when we finally leave the Europa Cybernetic Colony

He'll fund it. Just not for taxpayers.

I love that average British people think they're going to get the same healthcare as American millionaires, without realizing which part of that phrase is the important one. I've got an HMO. They're probably better doctors than me, a person who never studied medicine. Enjoy dying so the rich can be slightly better off, dipshits.

I don't know that we think we will get anything of the sort.

Certainly we think we should get the same treatment, and are actively working towards that, however unlikely.

...

Though it does strike me that I am doing your comment too great a service in replying.

Could be I hear too many people with bad opinions who want to ditch the NHS for a more American-style healthcare where you get care as good as you can afford.

Dealing with the US health industry is like the exact opposite of actively working towards getting that sort of treatment for anyone who can't already just fly over, anyway. That's not how you get the high end services, its how you fuck your health services into the ground and spike your country's medical bankruptcies :V
