Fuck the sick, they are a drain on the NHS. <br /><br />Better carpets in the admin block and a Lexus for the tofu diversity non-smoking teetotal slimness outreach coordinator is all that matters to them.<br /><br />It has reached the point where if the entire NHS collapsed, we would overall be healthier. The NHS are a drain on us.<br /><br />Seriously. I've seen what's happening in NHS hospitals. Stay the hell out of there. <br /><br />They are not about health and have not been for some time. The government are keen to keep them for a reason, even though the current system is useless.<br /><br />They are testing things. <br /><br />The latest antibiotic resistant ones blamed on Pakistan didn't come from there. They are just blamed on the latest bugbear.<br /><br />One day I'll post it all but it will be the day before I vanish for good.<br /><br />In the meantime, stay the hell out of the NHS even if the private charges bankrupt you.Leg-ironhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04932361799889315359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-260937491645277092.post-88982895935389289422010-08-21T00:26:10.245+01:002010-08-21T00:26:10.245+01:00Thanks Belinda for your kind comments.

They intimate that they are only thinking of workers health in most cases but the NHS Grampian don't even try to qualify their words with hard, cold facts. They think they only have to mention the word 'smoking' to get money that they think they richly deserve.<br /><br />They are charlatans posing as benefactors of the unwashed.<br /><br />They are evil, manipulative bastards that want their own way and do or say anything to get it.<br /><br />I used to have a healthy regard for the NHS...but not now, they are being driven by sheer greed and a slice of the anti smoking cake.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072165710888952465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-260937491645277092.post-34170731647568079022010-08-20T23:31:01.724+01:002010-08-20T23:31:01.724+01:00I wonder how long it'll be before they suggest...I wonder how long it'll be before they suggest banning smoking on the rigs. Good piece TBY especially with reference to the demanding nature of the oil rig work, which many of us don't have to think about on a daily basis. <br /><br />We know that NHS Grampian cares little for safety ... otherwise why would it consider making NHS smoking nursing/medical staff go cold turkey for up to 12 hours a day when they are treating patients.Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284836559314332001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-260937491645277092.post-2231620198890109892010-08-20T21:30:04.032+01:002010-08-20T21:30:04.032+01:00Spiteful.
