Taxpayers are to be asked to help fund a £20bn a year injection of extra cash into the National Health Service by 2023-24 that will pay for thousands more doctors and nurses,
Yes I remember this back in June. Taxpayers will be asked to fund extra cash into the NHS?? I also remember the electorate's reaction. What, hang on, this money for the NHS is coming out of leaving the EU surely? Not out of our pockets!
Don't quote the Guardian in one of LUHE's threads, he hates it you know.

If claims were made and people didn't verify them, then the media failed in their job and responsibility.
That's the weirdest thing I've ever heard. If the government can't deliver on promises, that's nothing to do with the media.
Who is whining about Brexit? Pointing out this government made promises about NHS payments it had no right, knowledge or ability to make merely to get into power is simply my democratic right.

Democracy, giving people a choice? You mean telling the electorate millions saved from EU payouts will be handed over to the NHS? Deception of the most despicable vote-grabbing kind, they'll be lucky to have a penny left after the Brexit divorce payment.

He cares about votes, that's it. The rest is just empty limp dick rhetoric.
You mean as apposed to the Tories who only got into power by promising a referendum on EU membership and got us into the whole Brexit mess?
i have just watched the glass smashing on the wt video on education.. please consider these experiences from the opposite side of that "coin".. i have heard young ones say out-loud on the mike in the kh that "jehovah is my special friend.."these ones who were at the top of the wt 'tree' pioneering, putting in the hours etc but, it followed that soon saying that pivotal statement they dropped their pioneering, faded, picked up the girl/boyfriend and suffered being dfd.. so where did their wt "education" leave them?
it left them as young adults naive to the world, unskilled, with no qualification to offer any employer and having to replace their former family/associates/friends with new ones.. ( dont get me going on shunning) in some cases with little success as we have read here where they moon about for months or longer unable to emotionally heal after the leaving or df'ing and also others with such a turn around they would never have believed it possible... there was a wt that related how a brother (!
) followed an interest in history and left the truth.
I started reading history when still in. Then after leaving I had only completed my first year of a distance learning degree when I got a temporary job on the strength of my studies, in a technical library working with scientists. After that I had a baby then went back to work when she started school. The reference I got from that first job when I started my degree got me the job I still have now! Education is valuable.
i woke up a little after 5 am this morning and looked at the clock and realized i had more time to sleep so i fell right back asleep.
i had this dream that i was letting my girlfriends dog out of her house and the next scene i was at work and i got a phone call.
the room i was in simply had a table and phone it was very bare.
Interesting Minimus, thanks for sharing. l'm glad it made you happy.
i love dear abby advice columnist.. abby "dear not interested, no rule of etiquette demands that you listen to b religious diatribes".
today paper..
What's this thing with really long dresses? Sometimes I see them on FS and I can't believe how long their dresses are now, almost down to the ground.
we all know the big movie villains get a lot of credit and appear in multiple movies - the shark in jaws, darth vader, and before them dracula, wolfman, frankenstein's monster, etc.. but there must be plenty of villains that get forgotten.. i thought clarence boddicker (played by kurtwood smith) was fantastic in robocop (1987) - a real psychopath.. another character who springs to mind is vilos cohaagen (ronny cox) in total recall (1990), i thought he was very good too.. obviously these and other movie villains do get some critical acclaim but they don't get their own franchise and they rarely get universal praise.. maybe 'unsung movie villains' is the wrong phrase but hopefully you get what i'm trying to say!
xd.
Tom Hiddlesons's Loki in all the Thor films. So bad he's good.
so that statement was made by an elder to a disfellowshipped brother, during a reinstatement meeting.. this statement is made here at around 4.
10 mins in.. the full story of this man is incredibly sad.
in fact i've rarely listened to an exjws story that has affected me quite so much.
Uneducated, untrained men lacking in empathy. What a dreadful combination.
Steve2 I wanted to say your post is spot on. These uneducated men have been placed in positions of authority over people's lives and think they have the ability to counsel emotionally suffering people. Plus any natural empathy has been systematically squeezed out of them by WTS teachings. Horrible combination indeed.

Just such a sad story, the fact only one family member will speak to him now. He was an elder who probably cared a lot about those suffering ones in the congregation having experienced mental health problems himself.
I suspect he put the other elders to shame with his genuine concern for others and they wanted him out. When he confessed to having a drink problem I guess it was a gift to them, the chance to burn him they'd been looking for.
