Did you read the article properly Mickey, or have you done what you usually do and miss out the words that dont agree with your agenda?
Let me reiterate his words for you again:
"As and when the cash becomes available - and it won't until we leave - the NHS should be at the very top of the list."
Now what is wrong with that? You are always bleating about spending more on the NHS are you not? Personally I thin he is wrong and nothing should be spent on the NHS until its wasteful and useless management have been bought to order.

Politicians are all incapable of facing the fact that the NHS has to be reformed, it simply cannot continue as it is, money can be endlessly thrown at it but it can never be enough.
A cross party team should be set up and come up with, at the very least, some new definition of what the NHS actually is and does.
The old, "free at the point of use", is a mantra we have heard repeatedly for decades, but can anyone really say what it means, because I actually don't know.

Khandro....."A cross party team should be set up"
I agree, but how is that going to help the 50,000 people who have had their operations cancelled now ?
Or the people waiting and sleeping on trolleys in corridors, or, even worse, the people waiting in car parks, and being treated by medical staff in the back of those ambulances ?

That is an entirely different (but related) problem, only more doctors, and operating theatres could deal with that and without a magic wand, no amount of instant money could solve that in the short term.
The ever increasing population - with millions more waiting to enter is only exacerbating the UK's problems, and not only for the NHS.

///This government has had all summer to prepare for what sounds like a normal winter to me.....lots of illnesses and lots of demand///
I've visited Hospitals quite a lot since July due to Mrs B's problem, and not once have I seen a MP directing Services, I believe they tend to rely on the Management Structure to do that, although I don't know if NHS Wales does it differently tbh.
It's not a normal winnter though is it? Australian flu has clobbered the NHS ontop of the normal heavier rate.
The problem is, if you staff up the NHS to be 100+% in the winter then you will be overstaffed in the summer and the cost would be phenomenal and, I suspect, would be become unacceptable to the General public.
The other problem is that the NHS is NOT in crisis. Some badly ru nparts of it are and some in overcrowded areas struggle.
//Its the immigrants then....I wondered when that would surface ! //
Are you saying that mass uncontrolled immigrantion and Health Tourism plays no part in the issues the NHS is suffering?

It means it isn't free, because you pay towards it through NI contributions, but you don't have to get your credit card out before they'll look at you in A&E.
