No-one can stop communists from trying to disrupt a Tory government.

You have suggested this before mikey........

The NHS is the "killing Fields" of all past Politicians, whatever their political persuasion.

I think that people have overlooked the blatant political agenda of some senior BMA Chiefs. More interested in destroying the Tories than serving their members. This was written by a former NHS Consuktant and BMA Chief

well, you wouldn't want to be operated on by a communist anyway, so it's all for the best

I thought it was a dispute over junior doctor's pay? So why all the waving of placards on the picket lines saying 'Save the NHS'? More like a political strike against the government.

Dave, think this answers your question

Just an observation, but it appeared from the banner waving shots of the protesters that the females out numbered the males quite markedly.

Are female doctors more militant OR are the medical schools admitting too many women?

[mikey4444]

To suggest that 1000's of Doctors are out on strike because they are Communists is ludicrous.

[TWR]

Sevjk, would you like to be seen / operated on by a person that's tired?

yeah as ludicrous as your claims of UKIP supporters being racists !!!

[mikey4444]

Sqad...concerning your post of 16:45, I seem to recall that you were never a great fan of lady Doctors, unless I have that wrong !

[Sqad]

LOL...you have it correct and for very, very good reasons.

I see that the former chairman of the BMA Welsh Council today resigned from the body and has returned his Certificate of Fellowship because he 'is so repelled' by the behaviour of the association. He went on to say that the BMA had transmuted into a highly partisan, heavily politicised body which regards opposition to the Tories as one of its central tasks. He also said 'Beyond all the sentimental propaganda about doctors, this strike has actually been created by the BMA's ruthless exploitation of it's monopoly position to protect outdated working practices, halt vital reforms, boost its members pay and, above all, damage the democratically elected Government of this country'.

It's great to see that somebody is standing up to the Bullingdon Bullies at last.
