[Margaret Pilkington]

I don't think they can....I don't think they ever will.
I was reading stuff about hospitals having to close because they are crippled by the charges from the PFI (let me think.....whose bright idea was that?...can't think right now...but I'm sure Cmon will have some link or other about it).

When PFI was implemented I was still working in the NHS, and I said then that it would be the death of some hospitals when it came to paying back the exorbitant charges(these charges were like 'topsy'....they started off little).
If I, as a lowly nurse could see this way back then....why couldn't those who were in charge of making the decision to use this system see it too?

You cannot have what can't be paid for. It isn't complicated is it?
