There should be a new iteration of Godwin's Law, that can be invoked whenever a RW nutjob invokes Venezuela as an argument against socialist policies; and if said RW nutjob has also failed to acknowledge the crippling sanctions imposed on that country, they should go directly to gaol.

Would that also apply to left wing nut jobs who will never accept socialism/communism has been tried and tested throughout the world and failed miserably.

Only if they are advocating that - which I rarely see anyone actually doing.

Absolute respect to you and your colleagues, it’s hard enough working in critical care at the best of times without the extra pressure of corvid virus.

I see in Venezuela they are binning the money because it simply has no value

Before the Daily Mail, The Sun, et al. found a new interest in Venezuela, how much did you personally know about Venezuela? How much did you talk about it, or mention it in your posts?

The focus on Venezuela came about because Livingston and Corbyn and other left wing acolytes constantly highlighted Venezuela as what could be achieved by socialism.

Great to see the huge out pouring of support and concern from the country for our 'get it done' leader.

What does it matter if he's been in a private ward or intensive care. He runs the country and deserves the best. This isn't some communist, we are all equal state.

Keep tugging your forelock. Great will be your leader's reward in heaven.

But nobody gave a monkey's about Venezuela before that. They couldn't even point to it on a map. My Tory voting father-in-law thought it was in Europe! Now, there are self-proclaimed experts in Venezuela popping up on every forum and newspaper comments section.

UK Universities should run degrees in Venezuelan studies. The UK would have a full intake ready to enroll. Although it's highly unlikely that any would graduate with anything higher than a third, because "Corbyn wants the UK to be like Venezuela, the Daily Mail said so" would be a pretty poor basis for their dissertations.
