More than £1.5bn is made in profit by UK Care Homes for the elderly. Almost all of the it is extracted via Rent payments and Debt Interest repayments to offshore companies that don't pay any tax in the UK. Andy Burnham's plan will see these 'costs' skyrocket. Renationalise

For most of us, seeing the Klan 2.0, a.k.a. Patriot Front, march through Washington, D.C., unchallenged by authorities overshadowed any celebration of America’s 250th anniversary. My ancestors lived through this. And no one today can say with a straight face that racism is behind us.
