How am I silencing you?

I have every sympathy on this, and my own father has used ambulances 3 times this year (in England) but if you live in Wales, your ambulances aren't anything to do with the UK government. They are solely, and have been for 20+ years, the responsibility of the Welsh Govt.

The real world does contain some (not all) of what you said, but it also contains hundreds of other policies that would drag your analysis that we are some kind of fascist state, back into the world of reality where it belongs.

We need a kind of CCMB equivalent of Godwins law but that refers to any discussion inevitably referring to the Tories irrespective of the topic.
