    What have we got in this country?

    A health service that's failing more and more every year, abject poverty, ridiculously inflated property prices, a poor road and rail network and underfunded schools - That's what we've got.

    There is plenty of money around but it's hidden from the public.

    Jeremy Corbyn has never said that people shouldn't be rich, but has asked that they contribute fairly and not hide their money away in tax havens.

    Who defines fair? That’s pretty naive view of the world. One persons fair is another persons far left / right policy.

    If the NHS is failing (it has been for ALL of my 50+ years)... then it cant just be about more money. If it was would you support all drink, smoking, drug and fat related diseases being only treated based on payments by the individuals??? I would not but at the same time why should I pay more tax for other peoples choices? This is the problem - people who make these poor choices cant have everything for free and expect ‘those who earn more’ to pay for it. That’s not social care.

    Underfunded schools and roads? Highly funded, poorly delivered

    Tax havens? Yep stop them. They would not be needed if we simply set a limit on the MAX tax paid

    The highest earning 1% in the UK pay an estimated 28% of all income tax

    You'd like them to pay a bit more, no doubt..

    Is that 1% all tax revenues (income, NI, vat, corporation, capital gains etc)? Or does it not factor in the Panama Paper boys hoovering up their wealth into secretive offshore accounts? I'd like those bastards to pay a bit more... what about you?

    It's income tax. The figures are from an independent, non-political organization. You could probably tell them all to F off to somewhere else and pay their £50 billion or so to another nation state..

    We have too many people for starters....when your kids can’t get in a school half a mile away you know it’s phucked. Is it an extra 10 million since Blair let anyone in? We moan about traffic, hospital waiting and getting a doctors appointment though.....

    Thinly veiled... "we have too many old people for starters" perhaps?

    It's an extra nine million UK residents since 2001 (58 million to 67 million).

    But why are you moaning? If you phone you doctor's surgery today for an appointment they'll probably have a space available at around Easter time.

    Ah yes the great nhs we only moan about apart from election time when we all love it.....it’s the new way to see your gp don’t you know? You wait a month in pain or worry, by the time the app comes around it’s either gone away or your phucked....

    We now have the lowest share of the worlds population we have had in modern times..... the rate of increase is the same now as it was for most of the past 50 years. There was a blip centered around 2010. That’s gone. Population growth is now similar to what it has been for last 50years.

    No - it is not 10 million. It is under half of that since 1997.

    I don't disagree with what you say about our services, but most of the issues mentioned are the responsibility of Welsh Assembly Government, not Westminster
