Good! If it’s not urgent why are they clogging up A&E?
Because it’s the GPs go to answer when they can’t be arsed to deal with you.
If you live anywhere near me then your GP will not see you. There’s no way to legitimately book a regular appointment and you are given the advice to call 111 or go to A&E. They have an “online” system where you take photos of whatever’s ailing you and someone will call you. When I tried that a couple of years ago, the app didn’t work. My impression is that older and elderly people are deiberately given more access to NHS services (but that could be just my perception).
I thought things would get better under Labour, but the last 2 years have been by far the worst I’ve ever experienced for NHS service. The waiting times seem to have gone up and getting through to a person is virtually impossible.
That’s because Labour haven’t been a left wing party since the 1990s. They care not for the NHS or people’s health. Red Tories isn’t some high school jib, it’s accurate of their stance on capitalism and the private sector’s role in our country. They’re a right wing party that use their left wing history and branding to gain power.
If you want to support the NHS in future then you need to abandon Labour and support either the Green Party of England and Wales, Plaid Cymru, the SNP, or Scottish Greens. Labour as a labour movement are done. They care more about bankers and tHE eCoNOmY than workers and ordinary people.
