It’s unbelievable as most people who are employed are related to other high ranking people within the local NHS

…

Yea, it IS slightly suspicious, isn’t it.

They claim to be non-partisan, but strangely only ever seem to spout Tory viewpoints. They’re essential the Tory’s version of the Tea Party.
