Crumbling under the Welsh Government
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-42718115
Shameful, Carwyn, truly shameful.
It works like this , central Tory government gives less money to Wales thus cuts are made which filter through to the NHS .......if it wasn't the NHS it would be parents complaining about cuts to schools or social care for the elderly , which has seen less cuts than has happened in England
Have you seen what the Tories have been doing to the NHS in England ? It's a lot more than just NHS accident and emergency times my friend ....letters like the ones written to carwyn are not compared to the hatred aimed at Jeremy Hunt as he prepares the NHS for privatisation ! You must have cotton wool in your ears but I think the truth is you know the basic truth
And that truth is the basic fact .......if we want a decent NHS and train service and road system we are going to have to be less greedy and pay for them via higher taxation !!.....but you Tories don't want that , you want high class services on the cheap ......and as they are finding out in England , it ain't possible
Ask your relatives , friends etc whatever what is the situation of social care of the elderly in England ?
It's shocking and the Tories have overseen that , yet this is yet another political post by a well known Tory , backed up by ....a well known Tory
As for mental health the situation in England and Wales is dire but it always has been ......mental health is and always will be the poor relation of other services in the NHS so you can bet your arse if the NHS is being poorly funded , mental health services will be cut to the bone
It's very simple , either we increase taxes to invest in a high quality NHS or we don't .......middle England via theresa may doesn't want that so on it goes
That's me out of it it's pointless arguing with Tories
Whatever you politically believe, the deeper question you must ask, is it manged correctly as this is not the only area of under performance in Wales ,folk need to move the blinkers and examine it deeper , if your purchase something as an individual you carefully ensure you chose the right product by value and performance .
Its so easy to blame someone else or something you dislike,the more we do this the less those in control will stop trying to become efficient or press for value for money , I worry that the Labour in wales ( who I voted for ) are frightened to make tough decision to benefit those lower down the food chain.
We get 7.3 billion pa for health that's about 2,3 k per person p.a, bit more than those in England and they don't free prescriptions ??
I would think more of Welsh Labour if they challenged the waste , means test free prescriptions,bus travel for the wealthy , congestion charge the city center , allow free 7th bridge travel for smaller cars , lorries only .charge fuel guzzling business cars though all spring to mind
This is not the only failing area ,education is also up there , infrastructures .
Perhaps as Labour voters we should question that fact of ineffectiveness ,mismanagement of budgets and poor decision and lack of be able to make a tough decision , not blame everything on the Tories because you hate them .
It must be great being in power or running a health trust , if something has unperformed you simply get your spin doctors out , blame the Tories , because your forever in power to spend and manage badly , priceless politics .
I think we need to step back from the sheep mentality of Labour voters everywhere as its not a nice statement , I 'm not a sheep and have voted Labour all my life , folk were greatly effected in Wales due to the Tories /Thatcherism .
However if you wanted to see evidence of Labour ( lets call it " ironic voting ") is the Brexit vote where it put two fingers up to Labour and voted for a worse right party than the Tories in UKIP ,then flooded back to Labour out of pure hatred of the Tories, but then backed a Labour party happy to have a greater free movement of Labour / immigration , no benefit caps , under the banner of inclusiveness, which is fine , but ironic ,as those issues were the core of the UKIP,mantra .
The Labour party for me has to provide evidence that not everything is for free and just funded from the public purse ,and no one challenges miss management of public funds ,and poor inefficiencies, we are in a different age now
No, they voted to leave the EU
You can't flood back when you never left, they voted to leave the EU.
I don't think there is much evidence to suggest that the centrist elements of either major party actually wants to curb free movement. Corbyn would probably like to, Rees-Mogg too.
Not entirely sure what benefit caps have got to do with voting to leave the EU.
The only thing that you can categorically state that brexit voters and UKIP supporters agree on is that we shouldn't be in the EU.
There are so many really interesting ways to analyse the last election (major parties both in a pretty awful state and hoover up record vote share etc.), this isn't one of them I don't think.
I can't keep up with current CCMB logic. Is it right or wrong to blame the government for bad decisions they make? It was wrong last week I think but we were talking about the whole of the UK then.
Fill me in lads.
All your points are valid however the behaviour patterns of Welsh voters suggests they did believe in a right wing mantra during Brexit but not in the general election .
I mentioned benefit caps as UKIP suppot that policy and Labour dont .
My post was positioning the distinct differences between UKIP policy and Labour.
It's fickle voting at ,it's best.
True Labour voters would have stayed clear of UKIP allegiance, and they didn't .
More positive news , who shall we blame

I'd charge for proven non incidental A and E drop in's , bit like the dentist ,watch the pointless visits drop .
I heard a friend say the other day they went to A & E because there sinus were bad and the GP was closed , I'd grab a bowl of steam water and breath it in ,much better than spending hours in A&E, if it is a million visits in a year, thats madness as its a third of the population , that is bonkers, and not a goverment funding issue ,bloody hell we need to man up a d self help ourselves not exoect bloody endless free handouts , we wouldn't manage our own finances like that ,and of we did then we could all pay another 1p in tax to fix this .
