I think the benefits are there to see, though. But we've had the conversation about the NHS etc before, can't be bothered to do it again
But I walk without a limp most of the time because of NHS investment, offering modern procedures that wouldn't have been available under the thatcherite model. So I'm in favour
I'd love to know what the real cost of NHS bureacracy actually is, everyone throws it around and says it's too high or promises cuts but I wonder what the numbers are, and what they've been, and how much of it actually does help... Speaking to my osteo consultant, he says he does more surgery and more patient work now because he no longer has to run his deparment, they have a professional beancounter for that, and doctors for doctoring. Sounds like a plan. But I bet it doesn't often work out so neat
