Past: India, Third World. Britain: First.

Now: Britain, Third World. India: movin’ on up.

[agere_contra]

I’m pleased to see this (as a healthy British person). The NHS is crumbling, and while it does so, it is a first class example of socialism in action.

[Blennos]

This is what we have to look forward to if we adopt the vaunted “British model” of socialized health care.

UK taxpayers paid for these peoples educations to become doctors and now they are just going home.

[Aquinasfan]

One doctor said: “The hospitals are better. Where I work is spotless. In the UK many hospitals are more than 100 years old.”

Back in the '80s I visited my grandmother in her London hospital. The room that she was in looked like an old (1930s-era) gymnasium. Patients were only separated by curtains. These weren't pre-op spaces; these were overnight spaces.
