Summary

This week, Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), and Nate (@inthesedeserts) speak with health justice advocate and writer Tim Faust (@crulge) about his campaigning for single-payer in the US, why anything besides Medicare for All is a scam, and why the creeping privatisation of programmes like Medicare and Medicaid resemble Tony Blair’s ‘reforms’ of the NHS in the early 2000s. If you liked what Tim had to say, pre-order his book here! https://www.mhpbooks.com/books/health-justice-now/ During this episode, Riley references a Wired article about friend of the show Matt Hancock and his generous benefactor Babylon.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to your free TF of the week. How's everybody doing?
0:20.7	Absolutely. Fucking. Wonderful. Amazing. The sun came out in London and I'm like, free TF of the week. How's everybody doing?
0:21.3	Absolutely.
0:26.2	Spectacular. Wonderful. Amazing. The sun came out in London and I'm like, wow, maybe God hasn't forsaken us completely. But then I realized it's too warm for this time of year and like
0:29.4	yes, actually he has. Yeah. Absolutely. A happy, a happy Brexit day one and all. Oh yes.
0:34.8	It's like Guy Fawkes night. It doesn't really mean anything. It's just like
0:37.7	you can go out, light off some fireworks, you know, Mark Francois, probably out and about,
0:42.2	dressed up in camouflage, I don't know, like shooting blanks, immigrants or something. It's a great
0:46.9	day to be British. What I like most about it, of course, is that the official vote leave
0:52.9	pro-Brexit rally and the official Tommy leave pro-Brexit rally and the official Tommy Robinson

1:06.7	other one is a classical liberal, actually. But wouldn't you know what? The marches just
1:11.5	blended in together. Was it like the classic like being on two dates with the same girl?
1:16.1	There was one person who was like supposed to be on both marches and it kept having to change
1:20.3	from his like George Cross T-shirt into his like tweed jacket and back again. Oh, hi, jinks.
1:29.8	Because I think there's now, anytime we talk about Brexit on this show, we always have to then leave space for Nate to say how Brexit's gone. So,
1:35.3	Nate, what's happened to the last couple of days? Well, the deal keeps failing and the indicative
1:40.5	votes seem to indicate nothing because we can't agree on anything or we can't
1:44.9	disagree on anything. Basically, we want everything and nothing. It's 2016 forever and we live in hell.
1:50.7	And what should we do about it? Given that polls show labor pretty high up, I say have a general
1:55.0	election. Wow. Always fun and informative to hear about. Well, the independent group apparently got really
