NHS Struggling

[Lex]

This happens every bl***y year. Is no-one in the NHS capable of remembering what happened last winter, and planning for the same thing to happen this winter?

Planning and the NHS do not go in the same sentence. Much like many government departments. I think it worth remembering that the Tories would love to privatise the NHS, but are rather stuck as to what they want to do with the terminally ill. - They aren't quite so profitable!

Just watched Jeremy Hunt struggling to tell us there is no crisis in the NHS. 'NEWSNIGHT' TONIGHT.a Says his plan is working but the problem is-not too few beds, but too many people, and certainly too many elderly..Doesn't seem to understand that all the new palace - like hospitals have fewer beds, like Walsgrave. which has 146 fewer beds than the old one.
Also says it takes 7 years to train a doctor.

How long has this bunch been in power.?
They cant blame the Labour party for everything.
