'Is there no limit to what this Government will privatise?': UK plasma supplier sold to US private e

[oldironside]

The Government was tonight accused of gambling with the UK’s blood supply by selling the state-owned NHS plasma supplier to a US private equity firm.

The Department of Health overlooked several healthcare or pharmaceutical firms and at least one blood plasma specialist before choosing to sell an 80 per cent stake in Plasma Resources UK to Bain Capital, the company co-founded by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, in a £230m deal. The Government will retain a 20 per stake and a share of potential future profits.

Selling our blood to Romney.

Every time I think the Tories can no longer shock me, they do something that does. Vermin? Vampires more like it!
