I have a story.
My dad was born in 1933 and his family was hit hard by the depression. His father died in the military and he never met him. My grandmother had three children, two girls and a boy. My father was given up for adoption when he was 5 because his mother couldn’t afford to feed him.

There wasn't a £37bn Covid testing contract. And Dido Harding was never handed a contract, she was head of NHS Improvement who was seconded to run Test And Trace. And the total amount that Randox was paid by the NHS was 133 million. But you're right, Matt Hancock WAS MP for Newmarket.
Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

“This thing I inherited from my grandparents is so much better and sturdier than things I buy today.” Yes, because *you inherited it.*. You didn’t inherit all the other stuff because it broke or wore out or was just junk that got thrown out when somebody died.

The Republicans have been promising a specific plan as an alternative to Obamacare ever since it passed in 2010. The promise is 15 1/2 years old now. That's probably why they don't seem very sincerely interested in it.
