Step by step, and rather more quickly than predicted, the NHS is going bust. About time we all woke up and demanded our politicans act instead of being obsessed with Brexit. We need to properly fund it even if that means increased taxes and accept the NHS may have to cut back on what it offers.

If I was cynical, which of course I'm not , when it does collapse the Govt. will claim there's no alternative but to bring their private sector chums to the rescue. However that still isn't going to magically make nurses appear, particularly if they are EU citizens who we've said ta ta to or made clear they're not welcome.

I've been at a University open days recently , all subject talks seemed to be packed. However he nursing courses all looked to be deserted..... Withdrawal of bursaries was a cracking idea to solve the nursing recruitment crisis. We expect nurses to take out a massive loan to train and look after us, and get a very poor pay compared to other graduates at the end of it. I think the kids are very wise to avoid it and we are in big trouble whether in we go private or use the NHS.

The biggest mystery is why Jeremy Hunt still in post, and what is he doing, buying more healthcare shares ?
