One nurse is worth fifty of his type. Gossiping speculator scum bags like him should be ignored in my view. They represent everything that is wrong with us. Greed and self aggrandizement!:mad:
Days of Florence Nightingale are well gone. The funniest story 've heard. Is one who was off on long term sick for stress. A matron at the hospital booked a driving a lesson, and was picked up by the nurse who was her instructor!0 -
FWIW I've never disputed that Cameron was posh. My point is that (A) who cares, I couldn't care less if the PM is the richest or the poorest man in Britain, I just want someone to do the job well. And (B) calling Cameron posh as an insult is daft when Labour is full of posh types & millionaires too. We saw for ourselves the real Labour hierarchy view of "working class" people when Gordon Brown met one face to face. "Dreadful woman" I believe was his description of her.0

You know those types of stories can be found everywhere and apply to anyone...I was talking about the 'role' not the individual.Thrugelmir wrote: »Days of Florence Nightingale are well gone.

I don't understand that sentence can you explain what you mean.0 -
In posh boy's case his background is important because it defines him as a person. It defines his thinking, attitudes and values. He has an unattractive sense of entitlement and attracts around him a coterie of like minded, privileged types...Chipping Norton set etc. He was advised as to the dangers of this e.g. Rebekah Brooks but he continued to move in such circles....basically because that is what he is!FWIW I've never disputed that Cameron was posh.

Gordon Brown described that woman as dreadful not because she was working class but because she was a bigot in his opinion.0 -

If someone rich posted that about someone poor plenty of people & especially yourself would be absolutely up in arms about it & be calling them every name under the sun.0 -

And his opinion was worth what his opinions usually are. Nothing.
You, meanwhile, need to get that chip on your shoulder seen to. Cameron may be a useless, arrogant fool - but he is a useless, arrogant fool because he is a useless, arrogant fool - not because of his background, which, like a good class warrior, is all you seem able to see.
So much for an Oxford education. Clearly, the old place isn't what it was.0
