Margaret Thatcher

But it takes a Tory government to spend tens of billions with nothing
to show for it.
(Track and trace anyone?)


And a Labour government to quadruple the NHS budget between 2001 and

I can't say I have much faith in either of them.

Boris is a journalist with an education in the classics. His health

of them have a scientific education. It's no wonder we're in such a mess.
