An Express reader to the core but get him on the subject of the NHS and he puffs out his chest and gets all dewy eyed.
And there are a lot of people just like him so you can imagine how any kind of radical reform is going to be an uphill struggle.

And it's interesting that the same morons who spout about EU red tape, but couldn't give me any single example of how it affects me as a small business, are the first to say "Save our [socialist red-tape ridden inefficient] NHS", the institution which will lead to national bankruptcy if carried on as it is.
You can't overestimate people's stupidity.

.
In any case surely health and safety legislation is a good thing, since in the context of our discussion, it would lead to less use of the health service
From my limited use of the NHS it could do with some extra regulations with regard to cleanliness.
FFS, sometimes I wonder how you cretins manage to make a living with your poor logical skills.Hard Brexit now!

We have a large population (so likelihood of a larger number of "patients"), combined with high Population Density, squeezing these people into smaller areas producing high concentrations needing medical care.
Above England, and even above the UK as a whole, the only countries with higher Pop Density have pretty small populations in total, where the number of patients is likely to be smaller. They can make do with a smaller number of hospitals in total.
Those with higher populations but lower density will find each hospital needing to deal with a relatively smaller number of patients.Comment
