I think when services are so deep in trouble as is the NHS, it would be a very worthwhile standard to impose.
But I'm also waiting for you to tell me a) what is the amazing socialist solution to the NHS's problems, and now b) what is your idea of military discipline, what do you think it means? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

What about working within high standards, and minimising wastage of both materials and effort, and being held to account for your actions, rewarded when deserving of it?
Quote: | This is fine in a world where money is no object like whilst warfighting, emergency aid missions, peace keeping.
It's a bit shit when you need a bit of value for money. |
You actually think that the military can just go ahead and waste resources like there was no end to them? In peace or in war? Well, I suppose it's a good thing in some ways that you can air such views
So what is the socialist fix for the woes of the NHS? Money has been thrown at it no end, and still it's a disaster. Whose money would you like to waste on it next? Not yours, presumably? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Ideally fi d out why we are paying a fucking extortionate amount to agency staff and locums rather than keeping permanent staff at a more reasonable rate.
Finally stop giving multi million pounds ppe contracts to the landlord of the health ministers local pub. |
Do you think the Labour Party in its current guise will fix it all?
Do you think there is anyone in the socialist camp with the strength of character and ability to fix it?
Personally, I think I'll be giving ReformUK a try. Can't be any worse than the rest of 'em, and sound, at least, eminently more sensible to me. Both Tory and Labour are complete wastes of space as far as I can see.

It isn't a money problem. It is a problem of working practices, organisation and work ethic, as is usually the case with leftist ideas and implementation.
And btw, since it is you looney lefties who introduced CRT into UK culture and institutions, you do understand that you are racist and there is nothing you can do about it? Just because of your skin colour. So why should I listen to the accusations of racism from a racist?

Well, if the interview on radio 4 the other day is to be believed, private hospitals (Spire in this case) are happily churning out hip replacements for the NHS at the standard NHS tarriff, offering the same level of service as they provide their paying customers and still making money doing it. In a calm, controlled and workmanlike fashion while paying their staff a good wage and maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction.
Which suggests to me that there are a whole lot of elective procedures the NHS are doing themselves ineficiently that may be better being farmed out to the private sector ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.

My understanding from the interview is that the NHS has an amount of money a hip replacement costs and this is what they pay.
Quote: | Do the private hospitals have the icu in house when they fuck up or do they rely on the NHS to fix it? |
I was discussing this with my wife, and no, I don't think they do have an ICU. And yes, if there are complications they can't deal with, they would transferr the patient to an NHS centre. But equally, why shouldn't they? Especially in this circumstance. They are an orthopaedic hospital providing elective orthopaedic care. If one of their cases turns into a critical care case, they should be transferred to a specialist critical care facility.
It's exaclty the same thing that would happen in an NHS hospital if something went wrong during or following an elective procedure, the only difference is that usually (but not always) the two departments are in the same building.
Or are you suggesting that if someone becomes in need of emergency care, having had a procedure done in a private hospital disqualifies them from receiving NHS critical care? How is it any different to when Carlisle infirmary fucks something up (which they seem to do on a distressingly regular basis as far as I can see) and the patient needs to be transferred to Newcastle to fix it? ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.

You could have literally endless funding for the NHS, and you wouldn't fix its problems.
