    nannytone, granted, compared to say...Sweden... we live in a right wing facist state...however...compared to America...we're more Communist than Soviet Russia. It's a matter of perspective.

    Cameron hasn't actually made things more capitalist than what labour had done throughout the last 13 years. In fact under Cameron, the FSA has been strengthened, the banking sector has been forced to overhaul (something that FreeMarket thinkers really don't like). Cameron is only just right of labour...the differences are very small.

    He supports the NHS fundamentally, but Cameron has a problem with the endless black hole moneypit that the NHS has turned into. He doesn't actually support Gove's education reforms (he's going along with it, much like how he went along with the previous health care reforms by Andrew Lansdale?). Even the right wing tory papers no longer support support Cameron...in fact...the Sun a traditional leftist newspaper supports Ukip...that shows you how far right the tories are.

    edit... Don't get me wrong, I'm not a huge fan of cameron either...
    Be Warned: Any decision made by ATOS should be treated with the contempt and suspicion in rightly deserves. If in any doubt, make sure to appeal any and all decisions by ATOS. Do not take their word for it, do not give them an inch of trust.

    When judging if ATOS were fit for work, it looks like they self-assessed. //Rant-Disclaimer End.
