In the general scheme of things you would expect Oxfordshire to be a fairly wealthy council, yet the local roads are some of the worst maintained in the country.

The nhs quote is hard to believe.
Every gp I have seen in a inner city area has been shocking to wealthier areas outside of cities.
Also check these figures.
My sisters area under blaby council and outside of city area her gp surgery has 8 doctors, the area it covers has 6% less people than my gp surgery which has jut 2 GP's.
My parents area a little seaside town which is half empty half the year has 7 gp's in the surgery and even its own hospital. If I go to that hospital which I have done I wait 5 mins in a&e, in leics royal infirmary its over 2 hours.
