US Announces It Will Deploy Previously Banned Nuclear-Capable Missiles To Germany

The US announced on Wednesday that it will deploy missiles to Germany that would have been banned under the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, which the US withdrew from in 2019.

The INF prohibited land-based missile systems with a range between 310 and 3,400 miles. The planned deployment to Germany includes a land-based version of nuclear-capable Tomahawk missiles, which have a range of about 1,000 miles and are primarily used by US Navy ships and submarines.

It Is Now Labour’s Turn to Expand the Piecemeal Privatisation of the UK’s National Health Service

The UK’s new Labour government is only six days old but its grand project to further privatise the National Health Service (NHS) is already up and running. On his first day in office, “über-Blairite” Health Secretary (and wannabe prime minister) Wes Streeting announced that the NHS was “broken,” which should give his ministry plenty of leeway to inflict further damage while blaming all the resulting chaos and destruction on the last 14 years of Tory government.

By all metrics, the Conservative Party has left the NHS in a state of rack and ruin. One of the largest employers on the planet, the NHS is suffering from crippling staff shortages, dangerously long ambulance waiting times, unprecedented waiting lists for surgery or specialist clinical care — partly due to the coronavirus pandemic but also exacerbated by years of chronic underfunding — and a buckling primary care system.

Whatever the diagnosis, the treatment is already abundantly clear: yet more privatisation. Streeting himself has repeatedly pledged to outdo Tony Blair, his mentor and idol, in deploying the private sector in the provision of NHS care. Now, to help “cure” the NHS of its ills, his Health Ministry is apparently planning to bring back Sir Tony Blair’s health secretary Alan Milburn.
