I'd have thought even you knew that a doctor's surgery isn't nationalised.
Nor are (most) chemists.

Not that it would stop you making things up.

There was a time when the Squeaker Goblin was a reasonable a rational
person, now, he (or whoever has taken over his account) constantly
shows themselves to be a completer and utter dick. ;-(

He tries it on with me, inevitably faceplants, goes away to tend his
wounds but then comes back to do it all over again?

The strange thing is his use of 'them' and 'this lot' when it comes to
a group who are opposed to the cruelty, exploitation, suffering and
killing of animals (that is by the vast majority with regard to live
stock) as being bad and what they do (and should be allowed to do if
they choose), ok?.

Now 'most' normal and sane people (and even many here g) accept it
as being what it is, may well prefer that it wasn't, certainly
couldn't do it themselves ... but it's the case where they aren't in
a position to do much about it ... like the Mrs does all the shopping
[1] and cooking, none of the rest of the family have (or want to
consider / face) the issue and so it all just carries on. ;-(

What these people don't try to do though (I suspect the silent
majority) is justify any of it, accepting that to them it's a
'necessary evil' (when in fact it's an 'unnecessary evil, for most of
us in the Western world).

[1] I wonder if the Mrs went shopping with the kids and in the 'meat'
section of the supermarket were live sheep, goats, pigs, cows and
chickens, with little number tags on them and you could chose which
one that wanted and saw it get caught, stunned / gassed /
electrocuted, hung up by one leg, throat cut, entrails ripped out and
butchered in front of them ... how many would do so?
