'Conspiracy theories' becoming true! "The more I read about Govt plans to let the American company Centene buy up the NHS the more outraged I am! No one voted for this: it’s coming in on the sly." "In an alarming twist in the spiral of NHS privatisation, 49 GP surgeries serving 375,000 patients in 18 London boroughs are being taken over by Centene, a giant health insurance corporation which stands accused in the US courts of failing to provide adequate health provision, underpaying medical staff and conspiring to fleece taxpayers out of millions of dollars." morningstaronline.co.uk/article/f/nhs-privatisation-resisting-centene "Despite the repeated empty slogan that our NHS is ‘Not for sale’, it’s already being sold off." "Operose Health, the UK subsidiary of US health insurance giant Centene Corporation, took over 37 GP practices, adding to the 22 primary care services the company already runs in the UK. The firm now has full control of the NHS-funded contracts to run the London surgeries. During the 2019 election campaign, former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn claimed in a debate that he had seen internal documents showing Boris Johnson had signalled willingness to allow US healthcare companies greater access to the NHS."  Going..... going.... mostly gone! "Samantha Jones, the CEO of Operose, the UK subsidiary of the giant US corporation Centene, is leaving the company to take up a position as health advisor to Boris Johnson" lowdownnhs.info/news/operose-ceo-moves-to-number-10-advisor-position/ Bring back Corbyn, all is forgiven. |

That is what one group in the Labour party are saying.
Another lot are saying "we need another Blair as that was the only time we won in the last 11 years". A third lot are running round saying "what is wrong with these thick plebs, why don't they realise we know what's best for them".
The rest just bury their heads in the sand.

I just keep seeing the piccy of Tony Blair looking like William Hartnell on Dr Who.* Only those folk of a certain age will understand this.

How is this selling the NHS.
Doctors generally aren't owned or operated by the NHS. They are owned by private companies paid by the NHS. Big money.

exackerly !
and those same doctors have hidden behind covid for more than 12 months, making themselves almost inaccessible even by phone, leaving the "blue collar workforce" to get out in the community and do the work ................... nurses, carers, occupational therapists, etc.
The latest excuse is that they are all out there manning the vaccination stations. Really? The one I attended, run by 6 large local practices, was processing about 1000 patients per day and there was only one doctor present.
My "GP" practice of 7 doctors doesn't even have an out-of-hours service - the recorded message just says "dial 111".
It's all a sham and a scam.

AFAIK the vaccination centre I was at didn't have a doctor from any of the surgeries although it is possible there was one around
