Sorry, Granny, still think you are missing the point. Most people think the NHS is a "good thing". In fact, everyone (with the possible exception of Barb) supports the NHS in principle and has the highest regard for the doctors, technicians, nurses, porters and all the other frontline staff. The criticism is against Blair and his government for raising considerable funds for the NHS via taxes and then proceeding to waste a large amount of it on bureaucracy, pen pushers, malfunctioning, unwanted IT systems and the like. This was a golden opportunity to make the NHS better and Blair has wasted it!
