No wonder NHS is so short of cash

Jeremy Hunt, the scumbag 'nasty party's' Health Minister has just squandered £44,000 on building a new khazi & shower in his office.

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

Did we pay for that too???

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

Well of course the barsteward would deny it!!! - so if, this new khazi and shower is for everyone's use, tell me, just how close to Jeremy Hunt's own office these facilities are or are they actually EN SUITE???

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

I can't help feeling no matter who it was for its rather hard to say it's money well spent when they are still cutting benefits and NHS is creaking at the knees. Hardly a good example to set IMO

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

They had a select committee speech on the future of the NHS the other day and one point highlighted the fact that we now only invest as much in our public services as the US. Other European countries invest far more and have far better services. I don't think they have the same levels of deprivation and the populations seem to be managing ok with wages. I think their levels of taxation are higher but at the same time wages are higher. We are clearly doing something wrong here.

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

But Jeremy's expensive wee facility isn't paid for by the NHS surely?

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

Yes I agree our fixation with low taxation is biting us on the bum IMO we have to accept we have to pay more and we have to pursue those who refuse.

Re: No wonder NHS is so short of cash

Like those who come from overseas and use the NHS without paying?
