Edited by legaleagle (12 Dec 2016 8.37pm) I don't disagree with the gist of what you are saying. A sensible and civic minded society would help those with mental health issues, which in turn helps prevent incidents like that that happened today.

Edited by legaleagle (12 Dec 2016 8.37pm) We have had many more incidents like this since care in the community was realised by the Thatcher government. If standards have dropped, it is because of the strain put on the health services by increasing demands. Immigrants are integral to the health service because our governments have failed to invest in British workers. Edited by Hrolf The Ganger (12 Dec 2016 8.55pm)

I would disagree: 1.Mental health provision has deteriorated primarily because of swingeing cuts (its an easy target without much of a voter/middle class support lobby)particularly re outpatiemt/post discharge/care in the community.I base that on 17 years of seeing the gradual decline..particularly over the past few years 2.There is a preponderance of immigrants because British nationals have increasingly turned away from doing such work because of relative low pay and sh#tty working conditions...as reflected throughout the NHS, see ie exodus of doctors and nurses overseas and into the private sector.

I heard you the first time. Your second point is not really contradictory to my point. There has been a failure to invest in training and pay for British workers. The government has deliberately taken the cheap option. There is always a funding issue with health in the UK but to ignore the increased demands as a big factor is denying reality.

Originally posted by nickgusset The May's britain part was tongue in cheek. I do think you can blame the vernacular around Brexit for allowing some buffoons to come out of the racist closet. Pleased to hear your post was "tongue in cheek" Nick. Although I generally disagree with your views you usually put them with wit and clarity. I thought that the "May's Britain" post was one of the stupidest ever, As you weren't being entirely serious I suppose that's OK Nothing is fool-proof - fools are too ingenious
