I happily understand a established medical location with new facilities to be a new hospital. Sorry, my mistake, I though all your references to Boris’s health promises came from the side of a bus. Even when he announced the 40 new Hospitals , he quite clearly stated that some old hospitals would be knocked down and new hospitals built in their place and that two older hospitals would be knocked down and one new one built in its place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not Boris did try and get anyone's address is irrelevant , the only relevant thing is that he didn't hand the address over .

SNP shut down after astonishing 'inaccurate' Boris claim The SNP's John Nicolson claimed it was true that Boris Johnson hatched a plan with Universty chum Darius Guppy to beat up a journalist. But the claims were quickly pounced upon by LBC's Ian Dale and panellist Kate Maltby for being "inaccurate" and an "allegation" which he should be very careful of making. But in a moment that shocked the panel, Mr Nicolson made an astonishing claim about a past incident involving Mr Johnson. The Ochil and South Perthshire MP said: ”You will remember of course that Boris Johnson conspired to have a journalist beaten up with his pal!” But iPaper columnist Ms Malty warned the SNP MP that he should be ”careful about that allegation” after it did not land well across the panel. https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1562405/jon-nicolson-snp-cross-questions-lbc-boris-johnson-darius-guppy-vn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsetBkk Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 On 6/30/2022 at 11:00 PM, onthedarkside said: Nicola Sturgeon’s ministers: No more Scottish money should be given to Ukraine for weapons Kate Forbes, Scotland’s finance secretary, says £65m provided to the Treasury ‘must not be seen as any kind of precedent’ Nicola Sturgeon’s ministers have said no more of Scotland’s money should be given to Ukraine for weapons after being pressured by the Treasury to hand over £65 million. Kate Forbes, the Scottish finance secretary, said she had agreed to provide the funding “on this occasion” but made it clear that “this must not be seen as any kind of precedent”. Her comments were echoed by Rebecca Evans, her Welsh counterpart, who said she had been forced to give £30 million earmarked for “devolved areas like health and education”. But the Treasury “strongly disagreed”, saying government departments across Whitehall had also been asked to make a contribution through their underspend.

Let's not forget to factor in the economic and demographic issues. The Russian population has been declining for years (less one million in 2021) and Russia is (relatively) an economic dwarf. The Eastern provinces would be a useful addition to Russia. Edited July 4, 2022 by candide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
