[Guinness]

I'm not advocating privatisation, I'm advocating charging the muppets who call an ambulance for stupid reasons (just google stupid ambulance calls) and people who turn up at A&E with a non emergency. In my opinion a financial charge will make people think twice before wasting an emergency resource.

But it ain't going to happen because the word 'privatisation' was used by Margaret who (just like me) is about as far from 'woke' as Rip Van Winkle....just imagine the privatisation twitterstorm from the wokeabilly hillbillies to anyone suggesting this as an option, which would prove my point about the NHS being a political poisoned chalice

And I'm not blaming ordinary staff...ordinary staff are the HCA's who do an amazing job, do the donkey work and provide the care. Nor am I blaming the secretaries and receptionists who have to constantly field difficult questions from irate patients who have been let down by a tired unsustainable system that is badly in need of an overhaul.
