I have to say as an outsider coming in, I can only compare the NHS to the Canadian system. They are very similar from the user interaction perspective, I’m aware under the hood the way things are run is a lot different.
Both my kids were born on the NHS and my experience with it was largely positive. None of that is to say it’s perfect or I don’t see the clear direction from the Tories (and labour honestly, FFS) to defund, break, and sell off the NHS.
Just remember it’s easy to complain.
The Canadian system imo is in perhaps a worse state with better funding and better labour availability. Our system is not anywhere near as modernized and we’ll run as the NHS from a digital systems side and even just like hospital and clinic admin (again this is all just personal anecdotes from one guy who’s lived a lot of time in both systems, please take all of this with a deer bait sized salt lick)
Yeah not just the UK.
