"Politics For All on Twitter: "‘Family doctors will spend less time monitoring people with conditions such as diabetes and heart problems, and do fewer health checks on the over-75s’" / Twitter"

Which idiot Sanctioned this and thinks it is a good idea?

It's basically a covid health service now but you have to wonder where this will all lead to.
Not only that but the backlog is massive now and that's just going to get worse.

Its absolutely ridiculous. It's like they're purposely trying to destroy the NHS so they have an excuse to get rid of it..

They need to remember that it's the public that want this to be run correctly and still operate as a service. That's our money they're spending, it's not their call to try to divert it somewhere else because they don't want to pay for it anymore.
That's just tough, the public want it to exist, but I get the feeling they hate paying for it

Covid is an issue and we know how to deal with it.
Isolate those who want to isolate and let the rest of us take our chances.

Given that it's a global pandemic, it is hard to say what's actually going on to be honest.

A lot of people are dying not through Covid-19 but because they are not personally accessing their GP or other medical services due to them being inaccessible!


I might have the day off today!
