Others are better judges of the likelihood of that, but I note that even the Blair government continued with the NHS ‘marketisation’ agenda. <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.firstresponsetraining.com/courses/first-aid/" rel="nofollow">first aid courses</a><br />Be the onenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704899696538705849.post-34351451833629678422016-07-03T02:57:05.305-07:002016-07-03T02:57:05.305-07:00I always wondered how NHS will impact UK exit and ...I always wondered how NHS will impact UK exit and it's clear now.

So the same point applies. Gove said last week he wants a UK/USA free trade deal. Since the UK government has a veto on TTIP, why would that deal be different from TTIP?Steve Peershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05869161329197244113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8704899696538705849.post-81115870629275008882016-06-09T07:24:14.335-07:002016-06-09T07:24:14.335-07:00Do you want to provide a source for that?
