The concept of the NHS is fantastic but isn't it the case that it's inferior to many systems on the continent? I've been involved with the NHS a great deal in recent months (and due to the poor health of a close relative) and even the specialists I have had meetings with have discussed the fact that the system is failing around them. I spent the best part of a week hanging about in corridors with my relative and the whole system seemed that it was creaking but under the stewardship of well-meaning and dedicated staff. The experience has left me wondering if I should pay for private health cover, such was the endlessly depressing waiting periods at every stage.Originally Posted by SLUDGE FACTORY
