    Minus the transphobia.

    Yes, I know, perfect is the evil of good, but good healthcare is a neverending process: we must always try to improve it for the people.

    Having recognition of the gender and enabling informed consent would go a long, long way, in eliminating waiting lists and problems that indeed also affect cis people.

      Yeah, though it’s not confined to just the NHS given some of the recent rhetoric I’ve been seeing. Obviously the transphobia is bad but it’s potentially marginally better than also being bankrupted by it. Not trying to step on the very real issue of the transphobia here though. Sucks that we don’t really have any good parties to be voting for right now…

        Whats wrong with the green party? I voted for them in the last election, seem good enough.

          Yeah I should have clarified, there’s some decent ones but the chance of them getting anything is fleeting. I voted green last election actually.

        I mean, there’s the Greens, Sinn Feinn, and the Scottish National Party. I’d argue they’re pretty close to good for the average worker. Corbyn’s new party would also be nice. But the real issue is FPTP. If that were abolished in favour of proportional representation (and Green favours that), that’d help.
