Re: Labour's likely defence policy

No flapping here, just a simple extrapolation of your position points to the gravy train..... You've tried to pin multiple different things on me so far, and failed in every one. Pretty obvious you're flapping. Even Labour estimate that the NHS is waisting 10 billion a year.... Not quite. £2Bn of t...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

You don't see that there's an obvious issue with promoting people simply based on the length of time they have on the payroll????!!! I see no evidence that it's happening. No one I speak to that works in the NHS says that's the case. The NHS just haemorrhages money, billions upon billions every sin...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

Have you looked at the rest of the Shrewsbury and Telford Trust its a dumpster fire and it isn't the only trust like it either in NHS England as for Scotland and Wales, well. You are in complete denial. Denial of what exactly? Because I'm all for pointing out the failings of the NHS, fire away by a...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

You are having a laugh, aren't you? No, but obviously you are. Why is it people roll our the personal (no, second hand) anecdotes when shown the facts. And yet they are complicit in the alleged wrong doing, or it's clearly a pile of nonsense. The NHS is one of the most highly audited organisations ...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

One of the reasons NHS admin and management perform so very poorly is because people get promoted purely based on length of service, no matter how bloody useless they might be, what could possibly go wrong with that business model? And yet the evidence is entirely to the contrary on NHS performance...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

So I take it you work for NHS Wales then? With this link and your previous about health records. You're definitely not MI, maybe you were MPGS with skills like that?

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

Now you are just being ridiculous. Since it seems to miss so much, it can't be that good. Do you have an issue with facts? As for the substance of what I said, how do you think these cases were known? People in a position to know did blow the whistle. People did get caught. People did get sanctione...

If it so efficient to do it the NHS way why aren't the required level of diagnostics being carried out such that cancer and other outcomes aren't as poor as they are? Germany has 70 scanners per m pop, to our 16, their towns and cities aren't spread over an outback wilderness. Because pre-pandemic ...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

The whole thing is structured incorrectly. Look at the link you posted, take Australia and UK, looking at OECD figures Aus is spending 16% more on healthcare per head than we are. So more but not an unreasonable difference, about $879 per head. They have 424% more MRIs and CT machines than the NHS,...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

You think 182 billion is affordable in the long term and apparently it's 'critically' underfunded! ... We are currently spending more than we earn as a country every year and going deeper and deeper into debt, just how long can we afford to keep pouring hundreds of billions into a broken health car...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

Ok lets go with your view that the NHS is the best thing since sliced bread and can do no wrong and any issues it does have would magically disappear with a bit more cash. How much more money does it need? £5bn\year, £10bn\year, £100bn\year? I've said nothing of the sort. You clearly believe that t...

Oh dear, I'll take a wild guess that you work in the NHS in an administrative capacity, as viewing that slow motion car crash from inside out, is the only possible way you could consider it well run......

I have but you clearly don't understand it. The link you posted shows the spending in 'real terms' i.e. inflation is accounted for. It confirms on average NHS spending has increased 3.6% a year after inflation. That's after economic inflation (as basket of goods), that's not the inflation that the ...

Re: Labour's likely defence policy

2.5% is a relitivly low level, it's only returning us to 2010 % levels. That makes zero sense. Relative to what? If in 2010 we paid 2.47% of GDPR, and less since, then that makes 2.5% relatively high. As high as 2000, too. 2.5% would make us 6th highest in NATO. So relative to what is 2.5% low? It'...
