For those who don't fully understand what is up with the NHS, here is a thread for you that might help. I'm a consultant physician working as a doctor in the NHS in Yorkshire and Wales for 32 years now. I have experienced the NHS at its best (2008) and its worst (2022).

@peteneville65 Funding for the NHS has increased significantly more than 2% in real terms 2008-2002. It consumes 12% of our national GDP - significantly more than equivalents in other countries and produces worse outcomes.

@bea_johanssen I thought that was self evident. Apologies.
