I remain unconvinced that we are going to see significant improvements in the NHS.

You can want Labour to go further, I do too, but again, pretending they are WORSE than the previous government is insane.
Thought you would know that too
Well yeah of course they do
And they've already paid for it
Pensioners need to pay national insurance ?
So the wildcard is the economy, but there are reasons to be a little optimistic here.
Just another decade of make believe “efficiency”.
I'm not sure who or what wins from any of this.
They are kicking the can of blindness, amputations and kidney dialysis and transplants down the road.
My brother is type one and he is part of an innovation programme which is amazing for him https://www.england.nhs.uk/2024/09/thousands-more-people-with-type-1-diabetes-to-get-artificial-pancreas-in-nhs-roll-out/

Well there was a community health worker pilot in westminster that reduced hospital admissions by 10% and A&E by 7%.
Great! Lets do that and also lets make the headline about how we hate sick leave.

Well the family doctor model doesnt work anymore but is still well liked and helpful for old people. Maybe we can divert younger patients to other services/providers which reduces pressure on GPs.
Great! I'm also going to throw in an AI buzzword.
Do they actually understand the crisis the NHS is in?
It just looks like they think they can toss out a few pay rises and tinker their way to success
My takeaway was all the ppl in the waiting room where elderly white
All the clinical staff young & of ethnic origin
& how they answer a survey question
Yes the procedure went well thanks
pissing afterwards was excruciating though, even though I had been warned
One, they extrapolate their most recent experience to a generic case and work rationally from there.
Or two, they pick up the general vibe from their social context and run with that.
I'm all for spending money on prevention but I think there are diminishing returns on putting money into smoking prevention.
