It’s ok, the 40 new hospitals will solve the problem.
As well as the extra 350m a week for the NHS. A bus told me so.
Anyone will have seen them not only failing on their improvement goals but making it substantially worse over the past few years so its not really a surprise. The NHS collapsed a while ago and its now so crippled its not a good time to get ill, I doubt it recovers until we get a change of government and substantial investment + 5 years now.
Nice to see a bit of honesty for once
Can’t run a service into the ground by keeping sillily little non binding pledges now can we.
I just rang up to badger for an appointment with the consultant today. Time between my appointments has been spanning so long they’re pretty much stalling putting me on the waiting list as much as possible. I don’t imagine it’s just me that’s being shafted like this as well. That number is probably higher in ways like this.
21 weeks since my last appointment… next apt now 10th October. Jesus wept.
They are still underinvesting in the NHS and overseeing a haemorrhage of staff at all levels. What did they expect? You cannot do more with less, despite what the Tories seem to hope. Unless millions die due to lack of care, the only way to get NHS waiting times down is to invest a lot of money and make it so staff want to work for it again.
No target will be met if no fundamental changes happen. Funding is not the only aspect, as staffing is the major problem here. We are not enough to keep up. COVID made waiting times even worse.
It’s infuriating to see such declarations without any practical change
