March 15th, 2010 admin
The British public are becoming increasingly displeased with the NHS spending taxpayers’ money on conditions occurring due to lifestyle choices, new research from AXA reveals.

With the economy in the doldrums and the state heavily indebted, NHS cuts were also raised, with 34% saying that drink-related conditions should see spending cuts. As well as this, 28% thought smoking-related conditions should have funding slashed, and 26% thought that obesity treatment should be cut.

Immediately after the pull it controversy, debunkers claimed there was no plan to conduct a controlled demolition of the building.

This new revelation is astounding and it needs to be investigated immediately. A Fox News hit piece against Jesse Ventura and the 9/11 truth movement written by former Washington DC prosecutor Jeffrey Scott Shapiro inadvertently reveals a shocking truth, that World Trade Center leaseholder Larry Silverstein, who collected nearly $500 million dollars in insurance as a result of the collapse of Building 7, a 47-story structure that was not hit by a plane but collapsed within seven seconds on September 11, was on the phone to his insurance carrier attempting to convince them that the building should be <b>...</b>
