I listened to some of the link. I was not convinced that the speaker was a GP as he claimed. I expect that is very bad of me but — shrug — he just didn't come across like any GP I've ever known, and I've known a few because of living in several different places and because of family and friend GPs.
If doctor and nurse numbers are indeed so much lower than in 2012 that is indeed shocking. As I understand it the current government is talking about increasing those numbers and building new hospitals. There hasn't been enough time yet to know if they will actually succeed. I seem to remember that the last idea about social care for old people, the so called "dementia tax", didn't go down too well but I had gathered from the media I do follow that active thinking and searching for practical ideas in that area have not been shelved. Again, time will tell. The baby bulge of which I am part has been known about for at least half a century so I reckon all governments have been guilty of not planning for elderly care for at least that long as well, not just Tories. Not that that excuses Tories.
The part of the NHS that I've had contact with over the last half century has never felt as if it has been "destroyed". It seems to have been working pretty well. Admittedly, I have no experience of major operations and procedures but some of my family have and they have been well served. How many times would the life of, say, your brother, have to have been saved for you to admit less than "destroyed", grany? How many years would you have to have been receiving good care for long term arthritis? Perhaps you have been lucky and not needed to test the NHS so fundamentally?
