Every time I have some form of interaction with the NHS there is some kind of problem. usually administrative but occasionally medical.



I know we just love knocking things here, but it would be nice to have someone posting experiences that are positive rather than negative. Negativity is so tiresome and not good for the soul.


Agreed, although to be fair that might be better on a thread (maybe in Health & Wellbeing) that isn't titled "NHS - I want to love them but it is hard". To me its clear it's a thread about why they don't come up to scratch, at least in some areas, and where they might be able to improve.

1) Scrap the NHS and privatise its assets.

Or scrap the NHS and put the money into funeral services.

This thread has persuaded me to create a new thread on the Health and Wellbeing board.

Have you read the argument, and understand the proposal?

Do you have any link or evidence to suggest this will be the outcome, even partially?

Or is your response purely an emotional one?
