    Without a doubt. Cameron went to America before the elections and was in talks with American private health companies, that should tell you all you need to know. So it won't only be privatisation of much of the NHS, it will be American privatision of much of the NHS. Not surprising really, after all, our National Lottery is run by Americans, even though Richard Branson offered to run it with ALL profits going to charities and our utility companies are all owned by foreigners as is what's left of our steel industry. Before long there won't be anything left in the country that is owned by the UK. So as with all other Tory governments, the only way they can make any money is to sell the countries assets, as they are devoid of any ideas to grow the economy.

    When you add 'Private' to any equation you mean profit. It is sad private companies are becoming involved in what were previously state institutions. Capitalism is on the wane and this is the last stand for the few to get in before drastic changes are introduced.

    The government should be making a serious effort to keep national entities national - improve the quality of those responsible for running them and levy severe penalties for those who don't or who are found with their fingers in the till!

    No wonder so many are ready to leave the kingdom!

    Definitely it's jobs for the boys. This despicable man is wrecking our country - selling off all our businesses and assets to foreign interests because he doesn't care about anuthing but his own power and his own pocket which is already bulging. He knows that no-one wants the Health Service ruined by his plans but he couldnt care less about the ordfinary people going without care as he can buy all he needs. Not a single word of truth ever comes out of that apalling man's mouth. He should be tried for treason for what he's doing against our country!!!

    Without privatisation and government contracts, many of these private health companies would not exist, so the taxpayer is providing the profits for shareholders, while services get worse. It is Tory policy that private capitalist companies, most of who are their friends and relatives, must flourish at all costs, so, yes.

    Money must be saved from vital services to subsidise tax loopholes for the rich,banks and big business moving billions of untaxed money to offshore accounts ,obscene wages and jobs for the boys.The people have no money left, they now live in poverty so this has to come from somewhere.

    Do you see anyone apart from Cameron, his friends and private health care companies wanting this health bill?

    It's corruption.

    It is because of the Tory mantra, "Profit before morals."
