NHS faces 'unprecedented squeeze', think tank warns

[darmstadt]

Don't worry, its being privatised anyway. In the last 9 months there have been more than GBP5bn worth of contracts advertised of which 70% went to commercial companies. There is of course one slight problem with that, if a private company feels they aren't making enought profit on these contracts then they can pull them leaving an already overburdened NHS to fill these holes

I've been told that all those millions of hard working immigrants

They have to be hard working to succeed in a foreign country without any inherent benefits locals have by virtue of being born there.

"NHS faces an “unprecedented squeeze” over the next five years under the burden of an ageing population".

That's hardly immigrants who came to this country in the last couple of decades.

NHS faces an “unprecedented squeeze” over the next five years under the burden of an ageing population, a leading think tank has warned, while George Osborne’s cuts are not yet half way done.
Spending on each patient is set to fall by over 9 per cent over a decade, despite an “expensive and generous” ring fence around health service budgets, as the British population gets bigger and older.....

.......The rising population means the spending per head by the state is set to fall by 2.4 per cent a year
NHS faces 'unprecedented squeeze', think tank warns - Telegraph

I've been told that all those millions of hard working immigrants ( ) were going to be such an economic benefit to this country. We were all going to get richer.

Now it turns out we are going to have a larger but poorer population. At least in terms of government expenditure.

I wonder did the 'experts' just make a mistake or was it all a pack of lies?
