As I've said many times guys, if you're living in Wales you have nothing to worry about lovely Welsh labour have been running the NHS for two decades. So to help you sleep at night don't concern yourself. It's all still Nationalised and it will remain so.

And our junior doctors have not been driven to strike action.
I remember Labour lapdog Polly Toynbee claiming the higher hospital mortality rates in Wales were because Wales had no hospices, therefore people died in hospitals instead, artificially skewing the figures.
Yes, but now we're stuck with the old system and England has moved on.
They take difficult decisions in London we expect mediocrity because we're obsessed with ideology.
I dream of a day when people can see there is a middle ground between the US and the UK, but it will be a long time yet.
What would this 'middle ground' look like? Bevan made huge compromises over the original plan in order to get it past the Royal Colleges- such as allowing doctors to retain their private patients in the new NHS hospitals. The actual concept of universal health care fee at the point of delivery is sound- providing that sufficient tax revenue is provided. Now the fact that Tory cuts coupled with huge increases in demand, as well as a decades-long draining away of the 'home-grown' staff as a result of the poor pay and work/life balance have placed our NHS on the brink of meltdown. Some would say this is by design, whether you are for full privatisation and levels of health insurance or you want some type of mix. I can't get past the realisation that the state of the NHS is the story of the failure of the political class since the 1960s- uncontrolled migration placing intolerable strain compounded by politically motivated financial strangling undertaken across the political spectrum. When traditional Labour voters voted for Brexit, perhaps they saw it as the only acceptable way of protecting this national treasure by limiting the numbers of those who had access to this, and other branches of the 'welfare state'.That so many of the liberal elite failed to understand this typifies the sense of disconnect that many feel perhaps?
