Re: Dirty Tory B*****ds.
Anyone remember a few years ago the issue TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) caused with regards to the NHS?
The US and EU were trying to work out a trade deal (TTIP) but some eagle eyed people who read the documents noted that if TTIP was signed and sealed, it would allow US medical insurance companies a way to get their hands on the NHS, effectively privatising it, by being able to take the UK government to court on trade competition laws, or something to that effect. David Cameron who was PM at the time refused to agree to TTIP unless the NHS was taken off the negotiating table or their was a written guarantee that the NHS was not included in any TTIP deal. The US would not agree to this therefore Cameron said the UK could not accept TTIP. Eventually TTIP was sidelined BUT it shows that even back then, the Conservatives would not allow the NHS to be used in any trade deal so i am not sure why Corbyn would think the Conservatives would sell out the NHS this time around.
The NHS whilst struggling most of the time, is an integral part of UK society and life and i personally do not think any political party would be stupid enough to sacrifice the NHS in any trade deal because if that were to ever happen I do honestly think there would be life threatening trouble for any MP who votes to give up the NHS.
