Seeing a few people say "this will change people's views of Big Pharma". A while back I did quite a big study on what people think of pharma firms. And do you know what? People like them. They make stuff that make sick people better. And they make vaccinations.
Also - nobody in this country bar the Extremely Online ever talks about "Big Pharma". It helps that we have the flat NHS charge, of course. Even the most expensive medicine costs £9.15 or is free.
People get that they're there to make profits for their shareholders. But they think that's fair enough if they're not gouging the NHS for profit (which they're not, generally)
Yet another area which the Left gets wrong. And why Corbyn's bloviating about nationalising the industry seemed absurd to so many.
