UK's National Health Service goes private



UK's National Health Service goes private in biggest expansion of private sector since Blair

'Rishi Sunak is planning the biggest expansion of private sector involvement in the NHS since the Blair era.' 

Private sector firms will operate community diagnostic centres for NHS patients (scans, checks and tests etc.)

Patients facing long waits can be sent to private hospitals that can treat them more quickly.

Tony Blair expanded the use of the private sector in the health service. The Labour government funded a network of private clinics carrying out operations and tests for NHS patients.

...

The UK's future could be poor people, who are sick, being dumped in the street?
