The National Health Service was founded in 1948 as the world’s first completely free health system as part of a drive to provide free benefits to all those in need. 60 years later, is the NHS living up to its original premise of being a world-leader in health care? Or is it failing British taxpayers with MRSA and poor cancer survival rates? Share your thoughts.

To the idiot who post in my name,sigh, do grow up mate.
The NHS was created to provide care for the sick but over the years it has been used for treatment which cannot be classed as illness -it is now a bureaucratic monster with huge committments it can never hope to achieve-the waste in this monster is enormous but there appears to be no move to put things right,

The NHS has descended into a beurocratic nightmare. Most businesses would not survive with the levels of inefficiency here.
one example - apply for a job - (personal experience) - from advert to interview time is six weeks. From offer to start date (friends experience) is 8 weeks, so it takes 2 to 3 months to get employment.
Industry average is 2-3 weeks.
If a candidate is any good, they will have been snapped up before the interview and the nhs wonders why it is struggling.
to many people walking around with clip boards doind nothing .......but get paid for it /////////////
