The NHS is a shitshow that muddles through and helps a lot of people, of course it does, it also shortchanges a very large number of people as well, and to pretend the garden is all rosy is partly why it's in the state it's in now.

And the Germans are happy to fund their health service better ?
This does not prove anything.
The US spends twice as much on healthcare as the NHS yet 28m people have absolutely nothing, and reading this board absolutely no one seems to be happy with their system either.
The NHS is a remarkable organisation - far from perfect - but to call it "shit" is rather juvenile.
