I’ve written before about my disgust with most of the UK Dentistry profession (the woefully awful NHS variety and the Mafia-inspired private practitioners with their new patient waiting lists, rip off first appointment assessment fees and thereafter hard-selling of unnecessary costly cosmetic work). Having finally given up on Hull area dentists, it’s probably been four […]

Thus far, the front benches are replete with allegations of cronyism, bribery, and a taste for rather obvious double standards.

Well, well, well, after a depressing and burgeoning list of gaffes and scandals, the Labour government, for all its rhetoric regarding following a moral foreign policy, has added a large helping of neo-imperialism to the festering mix.
