There aren't any NHS dentists near me. My pregnant wife is entitled to free dental care in principle. In reality I have no option but to go private.

Healthcare is the cost of doing business and results in a healthier society both physically and economically. Gods forbid we tax the top end of society.

Austerity the working class to the ground then be shocked nobody is buying anything, economy is slowing down and government makes less and less money and birth rates plummet due to nobody being able to afford or want to pass on the torch with no light at the end of the tunnel. giving more tax cuts to the rich will solve it though surely, politics logic. That's how it works right it'll make economy go eventually surely.
