For your average brexiteer the statement in the top panel is false and the statement in the bottom panel is true. If the situations were identical then the comparison would carry some weight but they aren't so it doesn't. A small minority would argue both are false anyway.

It's Reddit, so in their libertarian spirit the truth is somewhere in the middle. Specifically it's racism until it's too racist then they'll say it's ironic. A joke, like on Top Park, South Gear, you know.

Incidentally, the chair of the BMA council has said that Corbyn was right and Cameron was talking poo poo, but who cares what he thinks. Probably wasn't even wearing a tie at the time.

Wouldn't a 7 day week allow for a better usage of existing inventory, thereby reducing the cost or increasing the quality of care? Given that we live in a fairly secular world today, one might even argue that the fixed weekend is something that should abolished anyway (while keeping 5/2 word/free days), to allow economies to run more efficiently?

It is already seven days a week. Also, taking the same pool of resources and making it compulsory isn't going to help efficacy of morale.
