Its report includes figures from a YouGov poll performed in March 2023, it found 10 per cent of respondents had attempted "DIY dentistry" - and of those, 20 per cent did so because they couldn't find an NHS dentist.

So why again do we want single payer health care like the Brits?!?!?! If I want to see a dentist, it is usually the same day if it is a serious issue and always within 2 or 3 days.

And just think, they have the money to do healthcare "right" because they spend little on defense.

Liberals are dumb.

Politicians in the US remind me of British teeth.
Some are sharp, most are white, and all are crooked.

ETA joke was copy/pasted

As someone who has taken care of many Brits...I can confirm that most Americans, that go to the dentist, would not stand for the quality of care Brits receive from the NHS.

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

The irony

All roads in this country to socialized health care are brought about through the claim to ……….. improve access to care!

Amazing it's another lie

They have been nonstop celebrating the 75th anniversary of the NHS in UK all week. Statues, medals, awards, and much more.

Meanwhile, I can report that British teeth remain prevalent.

I can further report that if you find yourself in Portsmouth on a Saturday afternoon, several of the local bars offer bottomless champagne should you fancy yourself a drunken hen looking for a mate.

This is incorrect. The world spends 2.2% on defense on average and the UK is exactly average here.


A fearful society is a compliant society. That's why Democrats and criminals prefer their victims to be unarmed. Gun Control is not about guns, it's about control.
