That’s a shock, NOT.
“In 2010, 94 per cent of people attending a type 1 or type 2 A&E were seen within four hours; by May 2024 that figure had dropped to just over 60 per cent”
The Tories took over in 2010.
Britain’s NHS has been in dire condition for decades. Having toured a London hospital ER, I can vouch for the lack of modern technology and rudimentary equipment.
Britain is in dire condition. Their failing NHS is just a symptom.
Why are they admitting that? Socialism isn’t working.
At one point, the NHS was the second-largest civilian government workforce in the world. They were outnumbered only by the Indian railway system.
But the uk has taxed itself into prosperity. How can this be, in beloved Oceania?
Keep those migrants coming. Many not getting jobs and being a pure drain on services.
Yet ask the average Brit, they’re convinced the NHS is still the best thing ever.
I’m shocked! How is it possible that socialized (aka communist) medicine be in dire straights .... I’m shocked. Maybe Obamacare could help them out.
So, basically it’s the Veterans Administration.
Government-run health. Looks great on paper. What could go wrong?
So the socialists finally ran out of OPM? Paging Margaret Thatcher!
One huge issue is that it’s no longer the National Health Service, it’s become a de facto International Health Service.
Your socialist health care system was screwed up even before you let all those foreigners overrun your country. Now you claim you need to fix, what you deliberately broke.
Everybody in Britain has the right to a free coronary artery bypass graft...as long as they’re willing to wait 9 months for it.
No Western government anywhere in the world except maybe Japan can run a lemonade stand.
Creating a government agency in the future should be outlawed.
Y’all can bitch about VA all you want.
In Hawaii VA sends us to civilian service providers.
I emailed my VA doctor( useless to try to call) about my symptoms and and within 1/2 hour was ordered to go to the ER.
I was in a hospital private room within 40 minutes.
Keep in mind my VA doctor is 1 hour drive away.
the hospital is 25 minutes away.
I’m very remote.
That all being said the place I live in Hawaii (the big island) has a lot of very rich people, I’m not one of them,
but our medical services are outstanding thanks to them and thier VOLUNTARY charity.
But it’s FREEEEEEE!
Let’s see, what has changed in the UK in the past 14 years.... Hmmm, could it be a massive influx of “immigrants” with no education and no skills entering the country and not contributing to the economy?
