They do it round here from the Hospital wards. Last year I picked an OAP up who'd been discharged from a ward at 03:30 on the Sunday morning. He was taken down to the Main Entrance with all his stuff and left there. They'd discharged him because they were short on beds. He'd only got his nightwear on plus a dressing gown. They'd put all his medication in a plastic bag along with his belongings.[/quote]

Would putting more money in guarantee that it wouldn't happen? I doubt it. How much money do you think it will take to provide "adequate resources" and where will this money come from?

In fairness to Bliar he chucked billions at the NHS, unfortunately neither he or his government oversaw the way that the money was spent. I think that you will all find that the NHS itself is guilty of pillaging vast amounts of money, from the very pot that was supposed to make peoples lives better, by way of excessive salaries.

It is the same as taxation; Every time that something goes wrong with the nations coffers, they scream for higher/more taxes! If the truth be known we have more than enough money generated through tax. Unfortunately what we do not have is accountability, neither will those at the top push for it, as they are all thieving out of the same pot.

The sickness of this society was laid bare this week, when a police chief who is on something like 170k, expenses of 30k + two chauffeurs and numerous other perks, then declares he cannot make cuts. It was pointed out that his expenses and perks would have given him another two constables for a year. The country is being pillaged as we speak and that is why we are where we are - with no end in sight.

And 30 miles back, 60 mile round trip and dead mileage to the hospital?

One hours work. £105?

If Uber had done that job the whole of the UK taxi/PH trade would be going f***ing mad.


It's still a 60 mile round trip.

Shoot it down by all means! The trick in doing so, is to do it in a constructive manner, backed by facts.

Take any of the (3) paragraphs and tell me where I am wrong, backed by a factual argument......not opinion.

You really do give the Oirish a worse name than they deserve #-o

If we paid attention to all the abuses of the UK tax system I'm sure there would be more in the pot
