The good news is that despite many failings in the NHS, help is still available for you.And the bad news thread - as it just means another lying twat instead.
Good Lord no !The good news is that despite many failings in the NHS, help is still available for you.

Good for you, I was put on the waiting list for eye surgery on April 21st, surgery takes place next month, hardly awful. As for the staff, I do something highly novel, listen to them.Good Lord no !
Strictly private health care for me. Can’t be doing with the awful waiting lists and unintelligible staff in the NHS. And those waiting rooms full of illegal immigrants, drunks and druggies. No thanks.
Have you been in any A&E’s lately ?No worries. Nigel is going to abolish the NHS.
All the British people who will have to wait to die at home because they don't have £500 loose change just to see a GP, will no doubt be grateful that at least there are no freeloading foreigners filling up the plush private waiting rooms
This by the way is what the BMA wants.
They never liked the NHS, and they cannot wait to go back to the good old days, seeing well heeled patients in Harley Street while the great unwashed just do without.

Over 100 people waiting on each of my last two visits, when in the past there would be maybe 20/30.
They’re like a war zone and most of those waiting are not even speaking English.
The NHS is broken and was never designed to cater for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people, who don’t and have never paid a penny into it.
Suitably amended.The NHS was a brilliant institution, but needs less freeloaders sucking it dry. One of the sacred cows is the-free-at the-point-of -delivery. A small charge for initial doctor's appointments might address this as well as proof that you are entitled to use it. The money has to come from English speaking mugs who have paid into it for decades.
Now you’re talking. You and Nige are like peas in a pod.That's why it has to be abolished.
Nobody will mind. At least nobody worth mentioning.
If we had ten million fewer people, the NHS would work perfectly. And there would be no need for additional funding.The NHS is a brilliant institution, but needs extra funding. One of the sacred cows is the-free-at the-point-of -delivery. A small charge for initial doctor's appointments might address this. The money has to come from somewhere.
You say listen to them, I would have thought it would be easier to give them your phone and do audio google translateGood for you, I was put on the waiting list for eye surgery on April 21st, surgery takes place next month, hardly awful.

Careful not to have an accident, if you do best tell the ambulance staff you're a private patient, I'm sure they'll find you a private a&e department.

It’s hard finding a bed for a vertically challenged personSadly, I must concur.
Late 2022 I took myself over to the PRU in Orpington as I was a bit concerned with my ticker as feeling (unusually)a bit under the weather. I was treated VERY well BUT it must have taken 8 hours before a bed was found for me as an overnight precuation given my medical history with the heart.
Whilst waiting around the boat people were out in force thinking they were in a youth club. There was one guy who was/had been bleeding and he had to sit down and wait his turn.
Whatever the staff get paid, it is not enough.

A cot is always suffice.It’s hard finding a bed for a vertically challenged person![]()
Although according to some, having 10 million extra foreigners poncing off the country makes no difference to housing shortages, NHS waiting lists, crime, prison over-crowding, excessive school classroom numbers, jam-packed roads etc etc etcIf we had ten million fewer people, the NHS would work perfectly. And there would be no need for additional funding.
Apply this to schools, prisons, housing and the welfare state and you'd have a country running at its optimum level.
There are simply too many people for the existing infrastructure.
Why on earth should a foreigner come over and get seen by the NHS? Buy an insurance policy like the rest of us when we go abroad. I couldn't just swan over to the States and get my piles seen to for gratis.
Once again, we are utter mugs.
