( or is it? )
Does anyone remember a news item regarding the proposal to bring 50 severely injured Gazan children, along with their immediate families, to the UK to be treated by the NHS?
I seem to remember comments on here about why here? What about other countries? In the interest of fairness, I did some quick research, and according to a BMJ article Italy, Spain, Norway, USA, UAE and Qatar are also offering medical treatment.
Then the story seem to die a death until I saw this BBC news item.
So, Prince William went to visit ” a number of children from Gaza receiving treatment in a NHS hospital”
The article goes on to say ” as of 21st November, 50 children are receiving treatment in surroundings that are safe and welcoming “. Of course, their families are with them, too.
Our NHS?
Kept that quiet, didn’t they?
As a footnote, has anyone else noticed that almost every BBC news report that mentions Palestine has the following two paragraphs tacked on to the end ?
“Israel launched a military operation in Gaza after Hamas-led militants based in the Palestinian territory attacked Israel on 7 October 2023, killing 1,200 people and abducting 251.
At least 70,100 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry. A ceasefire was called on 10 October”.
This was copied from an article about police arresting protesters two days ago, but is also attached, word for word , on the link.
Biased? Surely not?

Went to Manchester Cathedral this morning, for Mani’s funeral. Met my old workmates from Happy Mondays, when we worked at the GPO many years ago.
All the Roses were there as expected, plus Liam Gallagher, Peter Hook, Paul Weller, Bobby Gillespie and many others. It was a lovely send off for a top, top lad.
RIP.

Although I was a Roses fan, I was there more as a fellow Manchester United supporter. That is where I used to see him. Met Mani on a ferry from Eindhoven in 1986, when it was full of United and West Ham fans. Naturally, carnage ensued.
He was even more fanatical and United mad than I was. When once asked (before we won it in ninety nine) if he would rather spend a day in the Playboy Mansion or go to see United win the European Cup. Mani replied ‘No contest. The European Cup.’
Proper Red, Great kid.

Funny, how they fall over themselves for these Gaza people.
Yet my 73 year old dad (who had worked and paid in all his life) had to wait 11 hours to be seen in A&E.
