Taking it back to the levels of spending of about 2006 when the dead were unburied in the street, roving gangs of cannibals kidnapped children to eat them and you couldn't walk near tall buildings for all the people jumping off them. :dozey:

It is a very simple choice. You can either pay more for the services and have the state provide everything for you or you can take some personal responsibility for yourself and your actions.

You're going to turn down the opportunity of claiming £19 or £50 a week?

Here is another example of the terrible things that the Coalition are doing to the NHS - Spectator

As it happens, the number of doctors in the NHS has actually risen by 2,484 since the coalition took over, while the number of managerial staff has fallen by a similar amount. The overall NHS headcount has risen by 3,261

IB needs it, that or we've the sickest population in the developed world which we can't given apparently we've the best health service in the universe.
our health system is far from the best, dont know whos making those claims.

Factor in that uk workers also work the longest hours in the developed world.

this chart isnt up to date I think 8 years old but it shows how far behind the UK has been.

http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/he...ing-per-person

later data, we grown but still behind with developed countries.

add to that the massively reduced spending before 1997 and you might have an answer to the general health of the population.

Re: Cameron and Clegg worse than Thatcher.
 
We all know there's vast waste in the NHS whether it be due to the proliferation of management and red tape, the realities of PFI, over reliance on agency staff or the purchasing of IT systems, equipment etc. I see nothing wrong with making savings if the end result is that we get a leaner/fitter NHS (pardon the pun). If those in the 'know' spend more time highlighting real waste in the system than spreading doom and gloom about the possibility front line cuts then we've a much better chance of saving some money and getting the right outcome. IIRC Gerry Robinson did a pretty good job of highlighting many of the things wrong with the NHS - perhaps that'd be a good start.

Even so, that means Thatcher only 'cut' Arthur by 0.013333% so not too drastic then. :D

OECD stats disagree with that proposition.
