Israelis enjoy a range of privileges that stand in stark contrast to the struggles of working people in the USA or Britain—countries that provide substantial financial and military support to Israel. These privileges include access to high-quality healthcare, robust social services, advanced infrastructure, and well-funded public safety systems. Moreover, Israel’s strategic position in the "Middle East" is why Western nations provide consistent aid, strengthening its economy and security apparatus in ways that working-class citizens in funding countries rarely see.
This support is to make Israeli citizenship increasingly attractive, with the understanding that citizens are expected to kill or attack anyone necessary for Israel’s ever-ready military presence and Western hegemony in the region.
As Military Governor Ronald Storrs once characterised it, Israel serves as 'a little loyal Jewish Ulster in a sea of potentially hostile Arabism,'

The UK Labour government is considering increasing the role of private healthcare providers, weakening NHS capacities.
The Labour Party is considering a major expansion of the private sector’s involvement in the National Health Service (NHS) as it attempts to reduce waiting lists in the United Kingdom. Recently, the Independent Healthcare Providers Network (IHPN) wrote to Keir Starmer’s government, stating that private providers are ready to spend £1 billion to accommodate more NHS patients—if the government guarantees them long-term work.
While the offer has been welcomed by officials from the Department of Health, health activists have raised alarms over the plan. The We Own It campaign warned that a resurgence of the Private Finance Initiative (PFI) policy, as essentially proposed by the private sector, would lead to higher debt, staffing shortages, and diminished NHS training capacities.

"Strikes, boycott, parliamentarism, meetings and demonstrations are all good forms of struggle as means for preparing and organising the proletariat. But not one of these means is capable of abolishing existing inequality. All these means must be concentrated in one principal and decisive means; the proletariat must rise and launch a determined attack upon the bourgeoisie in order to destroy capitalism to its foundations. This principal and decisive means is the socialist revolution."
