I had to laugh at Boris Johnson saying that the £141.000 he receives a year is not enough to live on as he has 4 children and one from enother relationship . Well Boris how would you like to have contracted hep c or aids in the 70s and 80s through NHS blood and blood products like thousands of us who did and not be able to work or make a living through ILL health. When I got hep c from NHS blood in 1982, I could not work as I was ILL, my husband was also ILL because of contracting hep c from me so none of us were fit to work! Then he died at the grand old age of 39 and left me, who as I said couldn’t work with five children who were forced to live in poverty could not have much of a Christmases and didn’t have the clothes that other people’s kids had as we were forced to live on the dole – how would he and his family like to try living like that? It’s no fun for you or your kids let me tell you and a lot of other people in my condition would love to tell him the same! We would have been living an amazing life if we had half of that coming in a year. Could someone tell me what this stupid man is on about? Away and ‘boil your head’ you half wit of a man. Hep c victim.
