Broken Britain

A good article in the Telegraph this morning from Iain Martin, linked here. My comment is here: Quite so and well spotted. I have been waiting all week for somebody, indeed anybody in the media or world of blogs, to pick up on the dreadful portion of Brown's speech on his personal experiences of the NHS. Are there any left in Britain sufficiently untouched by the national obsession with the marxist NHS not able to recognise that care and concern for the patient is something possessed by almost all who take up a career in the medical professions. The NHS cares for none it is a centralised, bureaucratic monstrosity that inefficiently consumes and wastes a large proportion of the national income, trails the rest of the developed world in health care and with its flawed ideology drags the country downwards in many other areas of national life. Making adults responsible for paying for their own health provision by scrapping the NHS would probably be one of the best first steps to solving many of the nations other ills mentioned above. Will we hear this at Blackpool? You bet we wont! Posted by Martin Cole on September 30, 2007 8:18 AM
