Given the fact that New Labour invested heavily in the NHS which saw big improvements, you’d think he might suggest something more along the lines of investing heavily in the NHS. It’s not rocket surgery.
PFI was a financial timebomb though
Oh indeed. New Labour’s handling of the NHS wasn’t perfect but they brought waiting times down and things just worked better. The queues I’ve seen snaking out the back of A&E looks more like something from a warzone. An old.guy from my local died after a 7 hour wait after having a stroke, at the times the queues were longer than 24 hours.
Problem is the vig on those deals
Didn’t they “invest in the NHS” by paying private hospitals to take the burden? PPP or something?
They introduce a raft of policies, some good, some bad - PPI was probably the worst of them.
Fuck you, Mr Blair.
I’d love to see your Health stock portfolio, Mr Blair.
Why are people listening to him? Fuck!
The new labour leadership is as neoliberal as this guy.
Says the genius behind PPPs.
Really, really not.
What happened to Tony’s mental health starting circa 2001?
