I can't see how the NHS are going to recover. For example, how will they tackle the chronic level of under resourcing. Where are the clinicians and medics going to be magiced from?
That's the problem, the UK doesn't have the educational capacity to train anywhere near the number of doctors, dentists, nurses etc. It's also underfunded. Blair restored funding to the NHS which has been underfunded since Cameron came into power, although it may have started with Brown.
From the outside, it looks like the government has politicised everything to the point where it adopts expensive unworkable solutions to problems where they think simpler ones would be unpopular with a relatively small base that may or may not vote for them in the future. Rwanda is a good example. Stopping the punishment of people in jail to save money is another. Banning on-shore solar plants and MPs campaigning to prevent more freedom for local planners to build more houses.
I'd like to see a goverment that adopts a lower cost for greater benefit model, even if it's unpopular and has the nerve to explain the complexity of an issue and the government's limitations to solve the problem. Rather than treat us as fools.
