Welsh actor Michael Sheen's amazing speech in defense of Britain's National Health Service

And his denunciation of the lack of any real commitment to social justice and human equality among Britain's major political parties(including the Labour Party, the party that created the NHS in the first place)





(btw...the "great man" to whom Sheen refers in his speech is Aneurin "Nye" Bevan, a Welsh Labour politician of the postwar era who was largely responsible for creating the NHS).

If the Republicans and right wing corporatist Democrats have their way we will even lose the meager Medicare and Medicaid so many depend on for their very lives.
