@Margaret Swift I agree with with a radical reform of managment. But it's also about people taking more responsibility for their own health and educating themselves about how diet and lifestyle is linked to many modern diseases. Ideallly help should be given to those to quit addictive unhealthy behaviours such as smoking, alcohol consumption, over-eating (especially junk food). As this ...
@ burnside I believe all western countries have a moral obligation to poorer less developed countries. Expecially those former imperial powers such as Britain that have developed and grown wealthy at the expense of past colonies. Why do you think thousands of migrants leave their homelands? Those migrants would die if boats didn't patrol the Channel. And many do. They're not welcoming ...

Just spotted something very interesting on the Met office web site. Its a pie chart showing the breakdown of the biggest greehouse gas generators which is directly a main cause of global warming and climate change. So relating it to the industry im involved in and it shows Electric cars and the increasing promotion of them is nothing but a giant con. The biggest air polluter is the generation of ...
What the majority of the public don't know and realise is the vast amount spent on managers who are not frontline staff, have no line of sight with patients, Drs, nurses or therapists and work in premises not connected to hospitals yet are paid vast salaries for 'managing'! When the NHS was set up this level and scope of management was not required and I would say is not required now. I would even ...
@Masonic Bodge The thousands of economic migrants congregating around the French ports have travelled through countless safe countries in Europe, they have no moral or legal right to come to this country. But, come they do in droves every day, and we stupidly send out the welcoming boats for them. Let them apply through the legal route and arrive with the proper documentation.
My Mother and I both work in the NHS. And I agree many English people do drink and take drugs excessively. But also many English people are obese and eat far too much unhealthy junk and processed food, they smoke and dont take any physial exercise or very little. All of which is self inflicted. So on the logic presented above, most of the population should pay more for their health care or take ...
@FredBassett That depends whether you view a superior or even a decent standard of living as being solely linked to a family's finances or as something much more than that. Our situation changed from one of financial stability to the opposite. Then the situation worsened to civil war. So I personally understand the plight of economic migrants and also those who flee conflict and seek asylum. ...

The NHS is funded from general taxation which also includes revenues from sales tax, taxes on company profits, income tax, capital taxes, excise duty and other taxes. The NHS is good value compared with american health care spending. While 9.1% of UK total national income is spend on health care, it’s nearly double that in USA. Each American person spends nearly twice of much of their income on ...
