If Labour got rid of Corbyn, McDonnell and Abbott they'd win easily.
Those 3 are toxic.

What about McDonnell?
He can't help himself when he has an audience.
Saying democracy isn't working and we need 'direct' action.
Must be the worst statement ever by an elected politician.

Do people really think that real change ever comes about by the will of Parliament, do you believe the Establishment and the money merchants will ever do anything for the good of the little people , you must be soft in the head if you believe such nonsense

Like Corbyn all he's ever known is study, research and politics.
In other words career politician. Makes him a hypocrite.

That's how it started anx, the trouble is once you start that off by encouraging violent protests during peaceful meetings it develops its own Momentum (!!!).

Just watched a programme on the QE2, it highlighted all that would be wrong with a Corbyn/McDonnel world. Delay after delay building the ship, 18 different unions. Dispute after dispute. Sabotage to make the job last longer. High level of thieving etc etc. I'm old enough to remember those days and was Maggie to put an end to it. However I have to say I'm not overly impressed with corporate Britain either. It's a shame that there can't be a happy balance Plain

Bain has paid £90m upfront for an 80% stake in PRUK, with a promise of a payment "expected to be worth £110m" in five years' time. The Department of Health, which keeps 20% of the company, said that PRUK's Elstree lab faced closure without Bain's promise to spend £50m upgrading its facilities.

Apart from the initial payment there is future investment guaranteed. What would have been a fair price?

how much did bain sell it for?
By:

When: 08 Feb 18 21:11
I saw the selling price but that wasn't what I asked.
Read £90m for initial sale but then seen £230m quoted.
Not sure how much was invested in facilities etc.

how much was invested, lol

I know that Donny but I thought you had all the facts at hand as you raised the subject.
The laboratories needed an initial investment of £50m, doesn't that count?
By:

When: 08 Feb 18 21:45
i do have the facts to hand

i noticed you did not post the amount they resold the company for after 3 years




have the government not got 50 million to invest in themselves.....

is a 50 million investment in our health service an excuse to sell stuff
off on the cheap to companies employing tories as advisors ?
By:
akabula
When: 08 Feb 18 21:54
But you suggested there was no investment.
You still haven't answered my question.
In the 3 years they owned it what investments did they make?
Not defending this but it's always handy to have all the facts.
BTW was the advisor involved in the government department who authorised the sale?

off on the cheap to companies employing tories as advisors ?
It does appear overly cheap but for info they also employ Labour advisors.
