So another reason for the US to leave the WHO where a right to health is recognised?
RFK just gave a flawless answer to Bernie Sanders asking if health care is a human right. Bet Sanders didn't expect an answer this intelligent... he interrupted RFK IMMEDIATELY. SANDERS: Is it a human right? Yes or no? RFK: In the way that free speech is? It's different, because free speech costs nothing. In health care - if you smoke cigs for 20 years, and you get cancer - you are now taking from the pool of resources..- SANDERS: -We've got a few minutes left here.

Historians will look back on Britain's "lost decade(s)"
Almost everything chancellor Reeves announced in her speech today – Backing a third runway at Heathrow. Relaxing planning constraints. Building Britain’s very own golden research triangle of London, Oxford and Cambridge. Unlocking money from pension schemes — could and should have been done by the previous Tory government. The fact that none of the above happened is a true measure of how much the Tories squandered 14 years in power. We are almost 2 decades behind where we should be.
