    The NHS is getting more money under this government than it would under Labours plans. Dumba$$es think they can slate the government over this lol
    Faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

    So they are cutting the dead wood from the NHS, sounds like a good plan to me.

    Exactly what I was thinking, the government definately need to be on an efficiency drive with public services.

    Just because there's cuts somewhere doesn't mean it's the wrong thing to do.

    The resources are being moved not cut.

    Yes - they're being moved into the EBIT line on the accounts of various private health contractors.

    Labour would have, in their own words, cut harder and deeper than the thatcher era.

    Yet, they wouldnt, apparently, cut anything the tories have cut.

    Makes you wonder....what would they have cut, to make cuts harder and deeper than the thatcher era?

    As others have said, this isn't actually cuts to the NHS, just as winding down PCT's and the loss of jobs there, isn't cuts, it's just policy change and money moving from one place to another.

    All smoke, mirrors and general obfuscation - could you image Brown having The Balls to cut anything ?
