Totally agree. The waste is scandalous.
Surely it was all about cutting out waste. You can't trust the tories on the NHS.

Meanwhile, the underfunded, cash-strapped NHS seeks to recruit more essential staff. I guess you don't know the requirements placed on CCGs to engage with service users then Cucking. The idea is to reach out to communities where people are reluctant to seek professional help until things get serious (and expensive). But don't let logic interfere with your excellent political point.

And 'reaching out to communities'? People who are marooned from civilisation, cut off from the rest of the world? Isn't that what District Nurses are meant to do? This role is to pay some dope over £40k a year to maintain a Twitter feed, for God's sake. It is a criminal waste of resources.

The idea is to encourage people to keep well before they become patients. You just make cheap shots with no real understanding of the rationale. By the time District Nurses are involved they are indeed patients. Edited by Mapletree (03 Jun 2017 12.17am)

So what actually is a "service user" if not a patient (or someone nursing a complaint manageable away from hospital)? And how on earth does some drone managing a Twitter feed encourage people to keep well? Would people stop looking before crossing the road or start playing around on railway lines or be dining on lard sandwiches every day if it wasn't for this apparently essential 'service'? I'm intrigued to know what my choice of words reveals, as I am to know how calling out what is a misuse of resources is a 'cheap shot'.

Tory attack ad misrepresents Corbyn views on IRA, says Labour. Widely shared video uses misleading edit of Corbyn’s interview on Sky News, cut to suggest he did not condemn bombing. Looks like its true and the part where Corbyn condemns all bombing is removed. The idea that Corbyn was an IRA sympathizer is nonsense to anyone who is honest enough to question the Tory press. He was working for peace. On both sides there are bad people - the USA rocket program wouldn't have been the success it was without former Nazi's who were previously very relaxed about the Holocaust. They should have been in prison rather than earning a living in the USA. I find it odd that those that criticize JC on his IRA stance also criticize him for not wanting to enter a suicide pact with humanity and declare a joy at pressing "the button." Its like saying every life the IRA destroyed was valuable but they rest of us are not. I don't feel that was and I don't think he does either. Also when it comes to terrorism people need see what the British state got up to when supporting Pol Pot - after it was known he killed thousands. The death toll in the Irish wars is tiny in comparison - though no less painful if you and yours were caught up in it. Thatcher tried to put Pol Pot back into power and that has got to be one of the darkest moment of our history. Yet the Daily Mail, The Sun, The Express and the Telegraph have not a word on it. Enough said. Edited by Bert the Head (03 Jun 2017 12.42am)

Senior Conservatives have said there are "no plans" to raise income tax if the party wins the general election, in an apparent change of policy. Sir Michael Fallon said high earners had nothing to worry about, while Boris Johnson said there were "absolutely no plans to raise income tax". So there we are a guarantee of tax increases probably severe can the disabled and people 'getting by' afford to pay? The Chancellor whose job is to raise the taxes not available for comment. Are you for real. You contradict yourself in this post as you quote that there are no plans for tax increases due in the first part of your post then ramble on about disabled peoples inability to pay... Have you taken your medicine today?
Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

I'm intrigued to know what my choice of words reveals, as I am to know how calling out what is a misuse of resources is a 'cheap shot'. Good afternoon, I hope you slept well. First, to put into context whether the NHS is inefficient. The US constitutes more than half of the world's healthcare spend. Cost per head of population in 2015 US$9,451. The UK cost per head is US$4,003. Germany is US$5,267. Next, why do I say Service User. The whole concept behind reducing the rate of illness and cost of looking after sick people is to prevent it starting and then control it escalating. Encouraging people to give up smoking, check for common cancers, keep to a sensible weight and diet and avoid excessive drink or recreational drugs can make a massive difference. Finland has had huge success by convincing its population to eat more forest fruits for example. I see no contradiction in hiring someone to communicate to all of the population, especially the hard to reach, that they should look after themselves and go to the Doctor early when they have some kind of issue. This is also required by regulation. One webmaster per 5 CCGs? Croydon CCG looks after around 400,000 so this person will be trying to communicate to up to 2million people. Using that interweb thingy that the young people seem to like. This kind of communication is trying to get to people BEFORE they become patients. Call them customers or clients if you like, it's all the same to me. As I said before, better not to simply take a negative view on everything before you understand the logic.
