Would you be prepared to pay more tax to fund the NHS?Several fs ily members work for the NHS and are appalled by the amount of wasted money which is spent on a regular basis. There are frequent reorganisations/mergers etc of areas supposedly cost cutting when they have to reapply for their jobs, sometimes being made redundant. It’s a well known fact that nepotism rules meaning that inappropriate people get the best jobs then because they can’t do it more money is thrown away by that person recruiting someone to do the job for him/her whilst he/she sits back thumb twiddling and being paid thousands to do so. Another complaint heard regularly from the majority of patients is that hospitals have the heating turned up too high, an expensive and bug breeding environment, turn it down by a couple of degrees and save thousands. Over ordering equipment is another area things could be tightened up. I know of one NHS department that had 6 laptops left over after re-equipping, the heads of departments took them home for their children!
