You can look at the figures of investment as much as you want, im not denying theres been almost 3x more money put in to the health service. I'm saying much of it has been wasted, the NHS has become more topdown, more beaurocratic, countless wasted hours meeting/paperwork which is stopping staff from doing their jobs and actually treating people. The money has been wasted, Blair has reined over a decade of missed oppertunities.

Personally i've had an awful NHS experience, and yeah I can be seen by a junior doctor (not consultant) in around 8weeks, but yet 1.5years later I'm still ill and they still dont know what it is. You don't get to see your consultant, and the doctors you do see are trying to meet targets rather than actually getting you better!
