The UK isn't a real democracy. What kind of serious democracy has an unelected house of government where bishops and descendants of feudal lords sit by right? That has institutions like Oxbridge fast-tracking the rich into power? If it was somewhere else we'd be mocking it.

This is why I support the #DoctorsStrike And last year over 7,000 doctors left the UK for better paid jobs overseas. If you want to save the NHS, you too should support the strike.

I asked my legal team and they said I didn't say what I said when I said it. In fact I didn't know what I'd done until someone found out, and then I couldn't remember what I hadn't said I hadn't done anyway. Committing a crime isn't a crime!
