Anyone born after 2008 will be banned from purchasing cigs for life in a law to be introduced next year.

As should anyone drinking, overweight, drivers, sunbathers? How far down that rabbit hole you want to go?

Just showing how people's views on vaccine free people being denied healthcare works. They like their shit comparisons like wearing seat belts etc etc

Crackpot that stopped COVID from spreading in her country within weeks. Pity we don't have someone like that running our country in my opinion.

No. But she isn't one is she. I would think the same about someone like that regardless of sex, colour or religion.

I can't help but think this is a mistake.

It will criminalise and glamourise tobacco and make it enrich the black market. It should be a health issue and not a criminal one.

The effort should go into education and health care not law enforcement.

There won't be room in many hospitals if the 5000/day figure is reached.

Two of the hospitals that they are building are  Brighton and Sandwell (Birmingham) because I’ve spent time this week loading and unloading nurses work stations, reception desks,lockers,bed side cabinets etc, and that’s not a lie

40 new hospitals were announced with the launch of the tory manifesto 24 November 2019.

3 Sep 14 Laing O’Rourke has this week finally started construction of the first new clinical buildings linked to the £420m redevelopment of the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton.

The hospital is being redeveloped to allow for specialist tertiary, trauma and teaching facilities (3Ts) to be offered in the region. This preparatory phase, due to complete in autumn 2015, will enable clinical services to decant to the buildings once full business case approval is granted for the wider redevelopment.

Laing O’Rourke has been on board as main contractor since 2009 but is only now starting to actually build something. It is constructing two temporary buildings: the first is a six-storey building to house services including nuclear medicine, physiotherapy outpatients and rheumatology outpatients; the second will accommodate three wards currently located in the build area of the main redevelopment.

wow I'll bet planning for this goes back to when Florence was a girl.

May as well include the other so there is no confusion

''Midland Metropolitan University Hospital is a new acute general hospital being built on a 16 acres (6.5 hectares) site in Grove Lane at Smethwick near Birmingham. The hospital was designed by a team led by HKS and including Edward Williams Architects and Sonnemann Toon Architects. Already behind its original target completion date of October 2018, it was being built by Carillion. However, the company went into liquidation in January 2018, causing the PFI contract to be terminated. This, plus later materials and manpower shortages, delayed the hospital's completion until, potentially, 2023'
