Update 20 Nov., 2019 - UK will have a General Election on 12 Dec., 2019 because Johnson was forced, by Court, to extent Brexit till 31 Jan., 2020 which took the no-deal-Brexit off the table and Labour agreed to a GE. Johnson gets booed on his GE campaign trail while Corbyn draws massive crowds.
Lets hope Johnson and Murdoch do not do a dirty trick to win again because it would mean a TTIP and sale of NHS to the USA. After that UK would be nothing but a colony of America.
Murdoch, according to reports, controlled every GE since Thatcher which they won and devastated the country every time. Murdoch also controlled Blair's GE victory.
Update 26 Oct., 2019 - Boris Johnson elected by his MPs and a PM since July 2019. exPM T May had to resign. Johnson created more disastrous decisions re Brexit and by now it completely grinded to a standstill. He demanded a General Election but Labour refused unless he takes the disastrous no-deal-Brexit off which he refuses.
Update 12 Jan., 2017 --
David Cameron resigned and Theresa May, Home Secr., is now Prime Minister. Although she was there only six months but nevertheless she could and should have done something drastic about the NHS. The NHS is now at such a stage that the Red Cross had to get involved.
When confronted at Parliament she denied it like Cameron denied the starvation and homelessness he created with austerity and Welfare cuts.
Therefore PM May is none the better.

Mr Cameron
has a long string of betraying Britain and his people by giving constantly jobs away to
overseas bidder.
It is not
only the British Steel industry which he callously betrayed by not nationalise
it or support it financially to secure the jobs or now agreeing to an import
tariff increase which even the EU suggested.
He opposed it. The result was a 6,000 jobs loss in the last 6 months
TATA India's Steel Giant decided now to sell the UK steel branch because it made £2million loss a day. Mr Cameron still refuses to nationalise British Steel and let cold bloodedly 40,000 steel workers lose their jobs. Even if TATA finds a buyer they still will reduce work force to cut losses and increase profit. It also has an impact on the local economy.

In 2011
Germany Siemens won the £1.6billion contract to manufacture the train carriages
for the Thameslink route. England’s last train manufacturer Bombardier fought hard
for it to survive but was beaten due to Mr Cameron’s Conservatives. There were
great protests across the country to support Bombardier but to no avail.
In 2012 the
Royal Navy gave a £452million contract to South Korean company Daewoo to built
four new fuel tankers. The 37,000-tonne
Military Afloat Reach and Sustainability vessels make it possible for the Royal
Navy to refuel at sea. Ministry of Defence white-washed it that although UK
companies took part in the tender for the work but did not make a final
bid. Daewoo must have given such a low tender
that the UK companies knew they could not undercut it.
The problems
with tenders are they can give a very low cost figure and in 99.9 per cent the
real costs are double or treble as the work progress. It does not seem to
register with the government that the costs could not be real and to give the
work to UK companies instead of foreign companies which costs will rise to the same
anyway.
There was a
great protest in 2013 when it was discovered that Army uniforms were produced
in Britain worth £5million but the main bulk of £75million were produced in
India, China and Eastern Europe.
A further scandal
was discovered by Labour peer and retired Royal Navy Admiral Lord West. The
Prime Minister announced a £3.5billion order for 589 Scout Specialist Vehicles in
2014 at the high profile NATO summit at Celtic Manor, near Newport, South
Wales. He promised at the time it will
secure 1.500 jobs across the UK.
When it came
to it it was a different story. David Cameron gave 40 per cent to overseas
firms. General Dynamics UK beat its
rival UK firm BAE systems. General Dynamics
registered in the UK but it International Dynamics firm is based in Virginia,
USA. Lord West also feared that the
production of Scout Specialist Vehicles could be open to terrorism and
sabotage.
The first
vehicles are expected to be delivered in 2017.
