    It’s so weird. They want to improve healthcare services by cutting staff.

    Is this just an attempt to bring in private companies?

      Yes, it’s so obvious now if you look at the US and UK.

      The strategy is the same: cripple the public service while telling blatant lies that you’re trying to improve it, then bring in private companies under the guise of “giving people more choice”.

      Edit: those choices will of course end up costing you more.

      Partly it’s that.

      Partly, they have committed them selves to tax cuts and don’t want to embarrass themselves by doing a U-turn.

      Partly, they are so detached from the experience of medical professionals and patients that they simply can not comprehend the reality of the healthcare system.
