Well you must know my next question Zaphod ?
Have they ever used this facility,if not, why not?
Obviously the private sector can't keep their assets on permanent
standby just to suit the NHS?
What will happen to all their rich customers if they fall sick??
Why pressurise an allready overloaded NHS when there is no need ??
Could it be that there is friction between the two systems l wonder??
Donkeyman! 🤔🤔
