Cost of the Health Reforms have increased by another £ 300 million .....the cost of one Hospital ...The latest disgraceful
extra cost of health reforms adds to the criticism of Cameron`s pre-election pledge that he would not change the NHS one

It's time to slaughter the sacred cow of 'free at the point of use'. It was always a misconceived idea which discourages people from taking any responsibility for their own health and well-being. If people get something for nothing, that is the value they place upon it. Until they think they might lose it, of course.

If there weren't so many people having treatment who are not eligible, then it wouldn't be so bad, but with so many health tourists and dare I say it, people coming here who have not and do not contribute to the welfare system, it's bound to become unaffordable.
I do think it is wrong though, that the disabled and people on low or no income, take the brunt of the cuts/austerity measures.
Weeding out the undeserving from the actual deserving, is often not that easy, but doesn't seem to be being looked at.

But we want to see a N.H.S to be proud of
these latest moves are unlikely to achieve that

Five family doctors have become millionaires by selling their ``NHS`` ...``funded`` firm to Care UK,one of the biggest
private companies in UK.The deal shows how GP`s can use the Coalition`s Health Reform to make enormous profit.
...Health is all about profit to this Government......Dover Hospital could go the same way..........apathy is so dangerous...

No proof and no pudding, just Grauniad scribblings. GP practices have always been private sector businesses, so what else is new?

60,000 NHS jobs face the axe......when Cameron promised,prior to the election,he would not make
any changes to the NHS.
The NHS workforce has fallen by 21,000 since the Coalition Government came to power.
Nursing shortages will begin in the very near future because the Government is cutting thousands
of training posts meaning Trust will have to employ from overseas and increase the use of expensive
agency and temporary nurses.

NHS jobs surely includes virtually everybody who works for the NHS, that includes all the top administrators to the lowliest office clerk but citing only nurses is so much more emotive for the doom and gloom brigade.
