Liz Truss has received a stark insight into the dire state of the NHS after new figures showed millions of people in England were facing often record delays to access vital healthcare.
One leading NHS expert said the long waits for care, diagnostic tests and hospital beds showed that Britain’s new prime minister “inherits an NHS in critical condition”.
The total number of people in England waiting for hospital treatment rose again to a record high of 6.8 million at the end of July – almost one in eight of the population.

For all you UHC and Sanders Supporters, is this really what you want for our country of 330+ million Americans? Everything on paper the left promotes sounds great, the end result however is a disaster Once implemented however it is too late to change. Think about it

UHC goes back long before the Conservatives took over the gov't but that won't stop you from your attempt to trash Conservatives. Try answering the question, is this what you want in this country?See post #2, and stop your disingenuous bleating.

You realize that the Conservative party of the UK has been starving the NHS of funds, with the goal to privatize as much of it as possible.

Specialist physicians surveyed report a median waiting time of 25.6 weeks between referral from a general practitioner and receipt of treatment—longer than the wait of 22.6 weeks reported in 2020. This year’s wait time is the longest wait time recorded in this survey’s history and is 175% longer than in 1993, when it was just 9.3 weeks.
That’s what happens when you put people in charge who don’t think government works. They prove themselves right.
That must be the plan. Some people die first, and saves them money. Many who can afford to cross into the USA to pay for treatments.

Yep, and rich liberal elites being funded of the backs of the taxpayersThat's how socialism works.

Has any social system not failed?

Most Americans have health insurance of some kind and yet 60% of personal bankruptcies every year (and there are zillions of them) are due to a medical emergency. Take your BS Freshman economist talking points and stuff them.Has nothing to do with who is in charge.
Socialism always gets worse over time, because there are no market forces to keep costs down and quality up.

Those are not bills of socialism. Close, but no cigar.Yes. Quite a few currently operating throughout the world. Hell, you don’t have to look that far. The GI Bill, rural electrification, Medicare, Social Security, the FAA, the FCC, my god there are so many that haven’t failed.
You know what fails? ****ing Anarchy.

Rarely more than 5 minutes like at a grocery store. Nothing like many people using social services have to endure.You don’t ever wait in line?
The premise of your argument is that it's better for fewer people to have access to health care so they can receive it quicker.Record 6.8m people waiting for hospital treatment in England

Were you under the impression that Jeremy Corbyn had been running the NHS for the past decade? The UK has had more than 12 years of uninterrupted Tory rule.That's how socialism works.
