And if the government broke the contract off they'd have had to pay a huge penalty no doubt.
Are we really going to sit by while they destroy the NHS?

Yep, surely this piece of fundie-neolib driven policy is an idea that's "too big to fail"?
It was quite an obvious choice really, since it was struggling badly anyway. For pro-privatisation types it was therefore an opportunity to demonstrate that turning hospitals over to the private sector could work and could bring improvements. The problem for them is that it didn't.

where the slightly larger Mid Staffs ( complete with excuses for a night of long knives across the the management corridors ) or rather larger and has profitable tertiary services but ius a managerial cluster Mid Yorks weren;t ?
I don't know why they privatised HItchingbrooke but not Mid-Staffs. Do you?
The fact remains that privatising Hitchingbrooke didn't work, though, as the CQC report has amply illustrated.

What, you mean it actually lost money for the rich investors?
Service was poor quality too. On the news it said staff were very unhappy.

Yes, yes, but did it lose money for the investors?

relevance to the Hinchingbrooke deal = fuck all given the deal was set up in 2008/9 ...
but as this is Urban never let the truth get in the way of bashing the Conservative party ...

No indeed. I wouldn't piss on any of them to put them out if they were on fire in the middle of the street.
No-one's defending Labour, but the Tory scum deserve all they get.

So many particulars. So many questions.
its the electorate who give them the biggest bashing which is why they haven't won an election in over 20 years
You wouldn't know truth if it jumped up and punched you in the face. If you don't like it here, feel free to fuck off. You wouldn't be missed.

never mind the fact that the current electoral boundaries intrinsically favour Labour, hence the reason they are uninterested in improving the democratic process ...
in terms of the 'popular' vote the conservatives recived more votes in the 2005 GE
the single largest party in the 2005 is the Conservative party ...
remind me how far short of majority labour were in 2005 ...

somewhat ironic coming fdrom an Urban poster ... where the truth is a very nebulous concept for many of them

Doesn't matter, the public will cover any losses and make sure they take home a fat profit.
That's all part of being a successful investor.
Knowing which corrupt tory cunts to bribe etc. (Helps if you went to Eton with them obviously)

its great telling conservatives how short their party has fallen for nearly a generation. They make shit up and splutter about labour like you are a labour fanboi

Who am I to say you're wrong
Where did I say it was relevant to the Hinchingbrooke deal?
ViolentPanda
Hardly getting over it.
That'll be the electoral boundaries that the Conservatives had the legislative opportunity to change, but didn't?
The current electoral system, the one we've had for hundreds of years with a nip here, and a tuck there, isn't based on how many votes a party receives overall, so mithering about that (as both left and right do) is immaterial. What matters is how many seats are won by which parties.
ViolentPanda
Hardly getting over it.
Yes, so many people have little connection to or idea of "the truth", but brave Zippy, he knows all about it!
You're pathological.
ViolentPanda
Hardly getting over it.
Yep. That's always especially hilarious - the assumption that if you don't agree with their political prescriptions you're a Labour supporter, or (even worse!) a "socialist".

We get our policies no matter who wins the elections though. That's why we are the greatest political party that ever was or will be.

your sitting on a demographic time bomb though, quite similar to one that fucked you a few generations ago.

Hmm, yeah, demographics - let's see how well that one goes...

They were -66 seats short of a majority, or to put it another way they had a majority of 66.
