Darling to shelve NHS IT system

[HairyArsedBloke]

Robin Turton was the Secretary of State for Health, when Eden was Prime Minister.

Charges were first introduced under Chuchill in 1952, and under Eden it was changed from a price per prescription to a price per item. After three years, the charge was doubled under the MacMillan administration.

So, in short, what kind of idiot thought up the idea - a tory.

HTH.

You go trying to buy those same items abroad, then you'll know why you get so much Rx spam and why people flock to the UK. Even on a line item basis, it's a bargin.

And, ahem, one of the reasons why HAB is/was in the UK.

It has taken you 6 years to put persistance into a screen scraper, hardly an inspiring track record.

I'd say - 40 odd years of no action will do that to ya!

It's offensive so much cash has been spent on this system.

If they got a Mac they could have had it up and running for a few £K..

It might not work, but at least the doctor's surgery would look hip and stylish!
