NHS "One Of The Best Health Care Systems In The World."


A new study published today demonstrates quite clearly that the NHS is one of the best health care systems in the world ahead of such countries as France, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. It is also one of the cheapest per patient treated at just £2,170 as compared to Switzerland at £3,200 and the privatised system in the US at £4,950. We asked Andrew Lansley as to why then he thinks that the NHS needs "reform." "But that's the point isn't it?" he told our reporter. "Look at the profits that could be made by the private sector if they were able to charge £4,950 per patient. With my connections I could make a fortune. The NHS represents the biggest untapped asset in the country and we are determined to flog it so me and my mates can pocket the money. Surely you can see the benefits of that - for me and my mates at any rate? We have to cash in as fast as possible before the electorate rumble what we're up to and stop us. Fortunately we have the BBC to help the cause by running stories that suggest the NHS is inefficient and so on. You wait until we get our hands on it - we'll show you how inefficient it can get when shareholders and corporate directors are milking it for all they can get."
