MORE CUTS PLANNED FOR NHS

TO SPEED-UP PRIVATISATION. HOW DARE THEY??????

More cuts are planned for the NHS which would lead to longer queues for treatment. At the moment the waiting list is 18 weeks or longer and according to data it has increased by 40 per cent in a year.

October 2015 it shows a 293, 904 people were on the waiting list after being referred to a hospital for treatment. The rapid increase shows in this October, 2016 with a 360,266 people on the waiting list for 18 weeks.

 In October, 2014 it was a 169,907 people.

Only these few figures show and prove the decline of the NHS service and it is done purposely. By now nobody can tell the public otherwise.

It also shows the false promises and lies which were given at General Elections and ever since for improvement of waiting lists

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt vowed to tackle the high number of 12-months waiting in 2014 but experts said the crisis is the worst in living memories.

The public is fully aware of it and it is high time Jeremy Hunt, PM May and Chancellor Philip Hammond stop blind-folding them. They only lose the trust of the public even more.

In one week alone, ending December 18, the Ambulance and Emergency departments (A&E) had to deal with 374,268 cases. It was an increase of 10 per cent for the same time last year.

NHS asks, since the Christmas and  New Year period will be ahead to try and avoid to go to the A&E to lessen the waiting time and their workload. They advised to contact their GP or NHS emergency phone line 111 for advice or pharmacies.

Today the working people are paying a very high National Insurance contribution and only a small number need hospital treatment and it is therefore hard to understand that the NHS is in a financial crisis.

It would be interesting to know where those billions of pounds from  National Insurance Contributions really go to.

It is also hard to accept that the Government axed over 5,000 nurses and then employed agency staff to replace it. Everyone knows that agency staff cost three times as much as permanent staff plus adding the millions of pounds of redundancy money makes it look like a lunatic plan.

Or was there a method of the madness to feather some friend’s agency and at the same time to increase the NHS financial crisis? Looking at it like that it makes more sense for the Government but a great loss for the general public.

HEALTH SECRETARY JEREMY HUNT BLATANT LIES

At a time when the NHS is almost run into the ground and everyone is aware of it, Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt gave a speech in which he dares to say blatant lies: "Tax-funded NHS is the single thing that makes us most proud to be British."

The NHS is funded by, now-a-days very high, National Insurance which comes on top of the tax.

Jeremy Hunt and his Tories ex-PM David Cameron and ex-Chancellor George Osborne are the main operators to bring the NHS down. The new PM May seems to do the same.

They made it clear that they want to demolish the NHS to introduce the private insurance system of the USA which would give them and their shareholders' friends a massive increase in shares and dividends.

Jeremy Hunt added his plan is

1) expanding access
2) record number of doctors and nurses
3) set up an independent inspection regime
4) investing in new technology.

It sounds very well and impressive but reading between the lines and looking at the recent history of NHS it soon looks a Smoke and Mirror.

In view of 1) Jeremy Hunt keeps closing Ambulance & Emergency department to such an extent that ambulances have to drive further afield for miles to seek an A&E Department which could take their patients. Even whole hospitals are already or earmarked to be closed. It is in total contradiction to his statement.

The crisis has now escalated to an extent where ambulances, some time up to 10 or 15, queuing up at the A&E depts because there are no beds available to book their patients in. Their patients are an emergency. During that time, while they are waiting, an emergency 999 caller can not get an ambulance. It had been known people have to wait an hour or two or even longer for an ambulance to arrive which can be fatal.

What is Jeremy Hunt talking about? Whom is he kidding? Himself -  because the public are fully aware of the terrible situation. He surely is fully aware of it but is so callous to put up a smoke screen and white wash the whole situation for his own sake as well as the Tory Party.

Regarding number 2) is again nothing  but a contradiction  because ex-PM Cameron axed 5,000 nurses and doctors paying an outside Consultancy £5million to decide whose is going to be sacked. Then, bright sparks Tories, employed agency staff to fill the jobs which costs three times as much. All in all it was just another way to bleed the NHS dry.

Oh they are clever boys trying to kid the public!!!!

The promised set up of an independent inspection regime, mentioned in 3), is again an extra costs coming out of the NHS pocket and going into pockets of Tory's friends. No way are they an independent inspection regime being chosen by Jeremy Hunt or the Government.

As for 4) it is admirable that he wants to spend on new technology but experience shows that top quality equipment are exclusive for private patients.

In my opinion and surely many people see it the same way that Jeremy Hunt is nothing but a glove puppet first to David Cameron and now to the new PM May.

Every one is aware now unless there is a complete change in Government the NHS and also the Welfare State is being demolished. Jeremy Hunt can safe his blindfold.

It must be part of the Tory's bible because recent released paper showed that Margaret Thatcher was planning to demolish the NHS and the Welfare State but her Cabinet almost had a riot and she scrabbed the plan but apparently just shelved it. The real reason is that Labour introduced the Welfare State which is a thorn in the Tory's side.

Jeremy Hunt also 'promised' a £10million a year fund for the NHS to bring it back to a high standard. The problem is that David Cameron in his General Election campaigns in 2015 already 'promised' a £8million a year which was obviously not held like all his other promise.

Why was the £10million for the NHS not mentioned in the Autumn Budget? The answer is obvious.

HUNT PLANS CUT £170M FROM PHARMACIES FUNDING

A man who would not pay for his private language lesson to be able to speak to his wife's family. He added to his expense, in other words taxpayers paid for it.

Jeremy Hunt - Health Secretary - plans to cut £170million funding for community pharmacies which will effect 12,000 chemists.

It will not only hurt the elderly who rely most on the local chemist but another big loss of jobs.

According to records one million using those chemists a year which also results in a turnover of merchandise.

It will put more pressure on GPs because people use pharmaceuticals for advice which only recently people had been told to use the chemists more to reduce GPs' appointments. It would have an effect on A+E because  people will be seen to immediately while doctors' appointment take a few weeks.

Emily Holzhausen, director of policy at Carers UK said: "Pharmacies play a valuable role in supporting carers; providing advice and information that helps them to look after the elderly, disabled and their own health too, linking them up with support in the community.

"Pharmacies are more accessible than GPs and can offer a range of helpful service like home deliveries and free flu vaccinations."

Department of Health spokeswoman said: " We need a modern and efficient pharmacy service and we believe this can be done without reducing quality or access.

"We have proposed a funding scheme that will help the community pharmacies that people depend on most to thrive, while we make the savings that are needed."

This is a lot of white-wash again. Whatever reform the Tories tried to do went into a total mess and has not been sorted out yet. Furthermore, any proposal funding will be cut in the next round. Tories cannot hoodwink the people anymore.

There is also the valuable point that over one million customers pay well for the upkeep with a high amount of merchandise turnover. The special trained people will be unemployed and claim unemployed benefit. So where is the great saving?

It will be another brainstorm of the Tories which ends up in a mess like the reform of the Department of Work and Pensions into Universal Credit which supposed fully functional since 2014.

It costs so far £500million for the computer which is still not working properly and only used for a  very low percentage of work. For extra staff a £1.3million a year and to round it off a £44million bonuses for the mess. Not to forget over 2,300 lives from suicide or starvation because their  benefits were withdrawn.

Atos, a French company, received £1million for their assessments which left 700,000 applicants behind when they dropped out. An assessment which was already done by doctors and specialists.

Not to have learned their lesson they engaged Maximus, payment unknown, which told people with incurable illnesses they get better when they go to work and signed them off.  Finding work which is not available for 1,9million healthy people - officially - and 1,9million put on Zero-hours-contract to reduce the unemployment figure.

ANOTHER FLAGSHIP SCHEME OF CAMERON IN CHAOS "BETTER CARE FUND"

It is these 'great' experiments of the Masterbrain Cameron which plugs the money from the NHS constantly and surprise, surprise always ends in failures. Is it done on purpose to send NHS further into financial trouble? Is the remaining money put back? Doubtful.

JEREMY HUNT,  
HEALTH SECRETARY

A flagship scheme to improve care for the elderly ended up in chaos. It is the "Better Care Fund" which would take from the NHS budget £2billion to finance the elderly to be cared for by the council. The very fact that the NHS and the council have not got a penny extra because of the Government's constant cuts  did not occur to David Cameron and his Cabinet. Even with the £2billion from the NHS it would not pay the care the elderly need. Besides the NHS cannot effort to lose the £2billion     without getting into real serious financial trouble.

The NHS chiefs informed Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt of the consequences which would lead financial collapse of hospitals and having to cut A&E by 15 per cent. The head of NHS England Simon Stevens has also raised the matter with Mr Hunt and Communities Secretary Eric Pickles.

PLEASE BE SO KIND AND CLICK ON ADVERTS.  THANK YOU
=================================================

And here is another U-turn by the government which ordered the councils to hand back the care money if the hospitals are in danger of going under. That again is an one of the typical half-backed decision of the government constantly make trying to smoothing the waves but it does never work.

It was originally planned to have the "Better Care Fund" in place by next year but now it is feared it will not. So does that mean, that in the mean time, the NHS pays the £2billion to the council even if the scheme is not yet in practise and is even harder up? Will it be paid back or vanished in the sand like so many other payment?

Shadow Care Minister Liz Kendall MP said: "The whole scheme is in chaos. This isn't a Better Care Fund. It's a Botched Cameron Farce."

After all these revelations Mr Hunt brought in a programme director, another Tory friend gets a high salaried post,  and more staff to try to rescue the project. This is again controversial to the government's great plan of bringing down the cost and with it the deficit.. It seems that ever since the Tory-led Government came into power they wasted money on hundreds of contractors which never gave a full service, Department of Work and Pensions with the Flagship of Universal Credit and now this scheme. Money which put together runs into billions of pounds and all from taxpayers who are down to starvation and sheer poverty and relying on food banks.

For four years Prime Minister David Cameron sits back and sees the chaos building up and costing more money. All these service were running very smoothly, especially the NHS and Department of Work and Pensions, until all these great brain waves were introduced and ended into nothing but a very costly mess.

There must be a method in this madness. Is it to syphon off money all the time while these great reforms suppose taken place but never do? In th ecase of Department Works and Pension's reform it cost the taxpayers£800million and Ian Duncan Smith paid the out £44million for bonuses to himself and the staff for creating a very costly mess.
