Our population hasn’t tripled since Blair

More or less borrowing is only relevant for the current time period. Corbyn would borrow more than Boris in the same period. Comparison to Blair where the population of wasterels was lower is pointless

The military med (DMS) is a massively untapped resource that could take same strain off the NHS

if it goes to NHS (or other public services), then it is a big problem ... because there is no hope in getting any return on that "investment"

So how come everything is shit despite triple borrowing

The issue is the NHS has to be willing to go without them should a war break out

And not depend on them as a perm fixture

Ya fair

But chances of a full scale war is slim

Like military doctors honestly only work 3-4 days a week

Better to use for the moment

Especially for construction holy shit

I as a medic only worked about 3 and a half days a week and took a salary of £26,000 I think

Will be a lot cheaper as well than using these incredibly expensive firms

The engineers wont be allowed to be used dude

@PureEvilPie the word you are looking for is "infrastructure"

Again its because they arent fully "qualified" to UK standards

Urgh

the reason is any soldiers get a full qual they are quitting

Lmao

They wont stay in the army where they are treated like crap dude <:PepeLaugh:565528391336329216>

Then make the army more attractive

Everything’s such a damn mess

I said that dude, the thing is unless you got the right mentality you wont enjoy it

military catgirls?

Lmao

If they had of given medics the full paramedic qual they would take it and quit as well, more able to do their job with the NHS (though pay cut) and more money to be made privately and offshore

Because paramedic is level 5

Like CMT's are level 2/3, EMT (me) level 4

youre supposed to be treated like crap in the military

Even with that level 4 dude I can fuck off offshore and work on the rigs

@wacka no, just in the bootcamp

Once i'm done travelling i'm going to use it for contracting however

Nah that is BS teresko

well.. certainly less crap than basic training

Storin eats crayons

As a soldier you always get treated like shit, and as you bump up the ranks you get more freedoms but also more responsibility

When things fuck up even if you wasn't there its your fault <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

@Storin he said "supposed to"

basic training .. I knew the guy who did it when I went in... basically he said its his job to get people to leave

Well yea as it should be
