RE: Govt White Paper on NHS reforms10 Feb 2021 08:34
Tricky & Radium, I come from a medical family and you obviously havn't got a bl00dy clue what your talking about. Suspect you are either ball achingly dim or rampers, not sure. They have been talking about this for decades and there is no chance this country can survive without the right level of private companies answerable to share holders, its what makes them efficient by comparison to most state ran organizations with next to no accountability. What happened to the GPO, Central Energy Generating Board, British Rail, Airways, mining? All privatised, closed and will they return to the government? They wouldn't have a clue where to start for decades at least and almost certainly never. Ive seen it working also as a freelance engineer for various organisations over several decades now, its all about accountability and staff and mangers spending the money doing f..all for it with next to no repercussions on performance is ridiculously wasteful. We have nurses in our family and they are trying hard to remain loyal to the NHS but the way the show has been ran for years they are struggling to remain loyal. All in my honest and informed not guessed opinion...!!! That's why the likes of spire, bupa, TLY and many others are going from strength to strength. We have massive disparity also between old and few young to day to care for oldies and this demand and gap is going to grow. We also need more and more foreign staff for the same reason. Even with private intervention we are struggling massively. They don't steel money they use it affectively and give a great service and are now absolutely essential to bolster the NHS. Lets just imagine for a second that the managers in the NHS are competent, no matter how hard they try to implement changers now it would take decades to even hit equilibrium I think, let alone start to reverse the trend and take it all back decades on decades. You'd have to turn all the private companies to state and the last time I looked Stalin wasn't part of BOJO's cabinet! Luck we have the likes of TLY who can be arsed IMHO....
Sorry for the rant people but my shiz filter needed emptying.........
