The NHS has turned into feces under this Tory government. Like every other public service, and utility.
But GPs have been closing by the spade, seconded they're still running telephone consultations, thirdly many are referring GP common problems to the A/E.
In the junior doctor NHS staff strike. My sister is an A/E nurse. Basically the head nurse said to a crowded A/E no doctor if you haven't got life threatening immediate issues there's a 6-8 hour wait. 80% of the people there left. They were all GP issues. My own experience had the same thing last year 3 times had to raise complaints. Every time I rung my GP they said no appointments go to A/E. I had to go one time for peace of mind. The issue was changing a prescription, the one I had caused side affects. I get to the A/E it was full of people who also didn't need to be there. It was packed full of people that a GP should be attending. Full of idiots who didn't need A/E. The GP is making more money phone consultation, then later seeing the patient, because you cannot diagnosis over the phone. But they will give a phone appointment foremost. Money twice. I have a hospital consultation, since referral, it's over a year to my appointment. That local hospital is less than one mile away.
In short the ambulance service is in high demand. Absurdly so. The hospital beds are full. My brother's wife had an operation she was discharged the same day. Big Op. Same as my niece they didn't observe her when her tonsils were removed, sent her home, that day she got a blood clot. Had to be rushed back in.
The Tory government has killed the NHS. It has become a service as bad as the third World. Really bad.
Over a year to get appointments for consultancies. Backlogged. Stupid GPs not seeing patients, backlogging the entire Hospital system. It is still operating on COVID bullshit. Telephone appointments. Finally the amount of idiots it employs. Rats taking the fucking piss. Never come across such rats, come to England, granted status, GP, etc, taking the fucking piss. Literally not their job to do anything except get paid.
England has turned into a nation of cannot. It's always somebody else's problem on everything. They send you back and forth between departments claiming it's not their job. They sit there getting paid to do nothing. It's not their job. But getting paid to do nothing. I have never come across such assholes anywhere else, back and forth between departments, a lot of it from working from home bullshit, these people at home, god damn it, fire them, automated services, taking weeks getting response, to be told go to a different department. It isn't the NHS. It's the damn Government. Every public service in England today.
It's not the "Tory government", it's the natural consequence of socialized healthcare. If you make medical care 'free', there is less incentive for patients to stay healthy (since they can just get a 'free' consultation, 'free' meds at any time), and more importantly there is less incentive for doctors and clinics to be efficient (since there is no competition and all funding comes from the government).
It is directly the Tory government and its bullshit. Its inability to provide the support, training, and funding to British nurses and doctors. Instead it has continually axed programs and allowed foreigners to take positions. Aside from this has been policy. Not enough commitment to that care. It is across every public and national service and utility. They are disastrous. All they've managed to do is increase the costs.
Because it has been running them all into the ground. It has sold and privatised increasingly.
Since the last decades of their government, it has been adding millions into the population. Compounded by their own disasters of governance, Brexit, COVID, and the constant change of policy between resignations which have seen 6 tory figureheads do nothing but fail this nation.
Don't get me wrong I have liked some of them, including the current head, at any other point would've been a better PM. But enough is enough of them and their failures. They have served nobody else least of all our institutions. Which now have an attitude of cannot, it's somebody else's job.
