Why is the NHS failing ?

Kettering parking  is indeed dismal.

I wonder if a government of any hue will have the courage to tear the NHS
down and rebuild it? If so, how?

If Farage gets in I understand he will pull it apart, put it back together and it will no longer be free. I was told he favours the American way of doing it.

[klondike]

He has repeatedly said it will remain free at the point of use. I think that accusation is essentially anti Reform misinformation from those happy to see it being a bottomless money pit that delivers worse outcomes than other European health services. Nobody wants to follow the American model not even a huge number of Americans - principally those without employers funded insurance I suppose.

That is no good as it means only those who can afford it get proper treatment

But we have to stop being for one thing the International Health Service .
No other country does this .
Yet people come from  Africa or wherever  and have quintets or expensive treatment without paying for it  .
This doesn't happen in Europe or any other country .
You have to pay first ( or someone has to guarantee payment for you )

I agree.. as I said in previous post..
People come from other countries for treatment..
No-one is turned away.. 

We are a soft touch ... on many counts..

Were you told by an SNP voter Raven  ?   It's just not true and Farage has said many times Reform will not privatise the NHS.

No idea if it was an SNP supporter, it happened at the pool a while ago. I'd done my lengths and settled myself into the jacuzzi. There was a woman already in there and we just started talking.....As you do.
The reason it switched to Farage was because a guy walked past us and he was like Farage's twin, we both gaped and said wow in surprise, she told me she hopes he doesn't get in and said why. I don't know if it's true or not but it's wait and see time.

[Scrumpy]

Many rumours doing the rounds.. 
Local elections  on Thursday and Labour is running scared..
I think Farage is a threat.. whether we like him or not..

[Raven]

I like the way he talks about the illegal migrants but I don't see how he can deliver when none of the others can.
Yes I believe the Country needs a clean sweep, it was believed that was to happen, yet look how Labour acted. It bothers me that it will happen again and disappoint will be the outcome once again. I just don't trust him to deliver. As I said.......It's wait and see time.

What's to lose?. The big two have had the opportunity to fix the rot and failed utterly already.
