NHS will compete with itself @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social The curse of being the most popular, accessible, productive is soon you have more patients & are no longer popular or accessible Unless GP practices can limit their practice list this is a fool’s errand www.thetimes.com/article/90fc... - ThreadSky

People want a good service from their local NHS providers. NHS has been underfunded for years, deliberately, so people will think it’s failed and govt can then claim privatisation is the answer.

I detest Streeting, a talentless imbecile, who's only real work experience has been in a political role. To say he's unfit to be health minister is an understatement. He's more interested in taking back handers from private medical health corps with an agenda to sell the NHS to the highest bidder.

Productivity is the wrong measure. A unit of activity is not the same as an episode of care.

Proof once again that Streeting is a shill for private companies and a fucking idiot

NHS ? patients get to choose who treats them, this choice is more important than (y)our NHS consultants getting to choose who they treat. Hope that makes sense to future generations ...

because I have pretty much given up on the generations that are leading (y)our NHS. Such a shame that a great concept and a great gift to all from the state has gone so very wrong. NHS dentistry is no longer affordable by the tax payer soooo ... free and good for U18s (no waiting), the rest of us...

must pay. Back on trac ... WS is right !!! patients and parents get to choose between an NHS provider or a non NHS provider, does not matter who does it just as long as it is as free as possible and quality of care is maintained. NHS leadership IS broken.

so, bringing back the system that almost broke the NHS before?

Competition only works when there is spare capacity
