Vicious Inequality
On BBC Radio 4 on Sunday a feminist coined the phrase "vicious inequality".
Back in 1965 Labour had a slim majority. The Conservatives agreed to the Race Relations Act provided the Government reduced immigration. Immigration marches on relentlessly.... The Act incorporates the word "nationality". This means that foreigners can use the law to deprive Britons of work and promotion. That's a vicious inequality if ever there was one.
Also in 1965 President Johnson relaxed the US's strict immigration laws. The current political debacle in the US can be partly attributed to this.

Britain's pride and joy is the NHS. One in 14 women who have babies here are not entitled to its free services. (BBC Radio 4 "World at One".) So St. George's Hospital in London will require women who have babies to produce a passport. This is another example of a British muddle. In other countries everyone who is entitled to medical treatment has a medical card.
For more examples of British muddles please see 13 August 2016.
