A health system on the brink of collapse

1. Its not on the brink it has collapsed.

2. Yeh its shocking, our ‘Government’ failed us & the NHS. We’re no better off than an American without health insurance.
   How about free education for doctor & nurse students who promise to work for the NHS for a min of 5 years after getting qualified to encourage new staff? Maybe encourage more trained staff from other countries to emigrate here with easy visa and financial incentives? but no… the Irish Sea nonsense is much more important 😐

   The moral of the story is don’t get sick……

3. All by tory design and the DUP are accelerating it. Profitable services are going private which can only be accessed by the wealthy or working.

4. That £350 million a week we were sending to the EU was supposed to fix this. Where’s that money going now?

5. It has already collapsed. I struggle to put into words the complete contempt I have for the main parties here, successive NI health ministers from Sinn Fein and DUP have refused to deal with major health issues like modernisation and streamlining. Robin Swan was a rare exception in that he actually seemed competent and up to the job.

   Collectively the main parties could sit down tomorrow with SMEs and work together to solve these problems, instead they continue to bicker along party political lines and point score, all while tens of thousands of people here suffer. Corrupt, useless fuckers. To top it all off the shit heads in this country keep voting them in. Think I’ll fuck off to Holland!!
