I wasn't insinuating that you were blaming an individual sorry mate didn't mean it come across like that. And you'd be surprised some times my Mrs is in a right rage about stuff like this. A good nurse is so fixated on helping people, believe me when I say they do get just as if not more pissed of about it than anyone, I didnt realise just how bad until I started seeing her it's A lot more than just a job to them. Anyway sorry again I didn't mean it sound like I was having a go because I wasn't. And as for who to blame, sadly mate, the British public as a whole, they have dragged the NHS down, and will run it into the ground. The long and short of it is simple, too many people take far more out of it than they put in. It's there to help people with healthcare, but some treat it like a hotel, some like a drug store, some like a detox, some eexpect far more than is possible, some have never made a contribution in anyway shape or form, yet still demand top notch treat and service. 999 calls because someone has a cold, or trips to the GP because they feel a bit funny, a & e for a twisted ankle ect.. cost more than people realise. So blame Muppets that abuse the NHS, not the NHS it's self

It's been planned for years. Run the NHS into the ground, get it on it's knees to the point where the only possible way to save it is to sell it off to a US insurance fund.
Public opinion will be "ok" with it by that point.
It's been slowly privatised for years so far.
All the corporate terminology which has crept in. No longer patients, you are customer, clients and service users.
Like everything else now (think about waste collection for instance) it MUST turn a profit in order to keep it's obligations to the private service providers who have been let in.

That may be true @impish , not so sure o4n the conspiracy theory myself lol, but it will become e private and I can see why. I'm no mathematician, accountant nor statition but even I can clearly see in this day and age, the numbers don't add up, like with most things, the ratio of earning to cost has changed dramatically since the NHS was set up, and the money in, co pared to money out is only going to keep sliding in 1 direction. The NHS was one of the greatest ideas and institutions of all time without a doubt, but it is unfortunately a dinosaur tring to survive in a world of robots
