Drop the health bill? UK?

It should be dropped. Otherwise it will be the electorate regretting they ever were foolish enough to tango with DC, come the next election.

I don't think David Cameron intends being PM after the next election and is pushing through as much as he can now. If the bill does get through then it will be to late for anything to be done after the elections as he will no doubt have measures in place to tie us to it. I fear the only hope of it not being passed are the Libdems, so that's basically no hope. Clegg and the rest of the Libdems in the cabinet give in to the Tories all the time and then try and tell us it was necessary. Clegg is evidently asking for some minor changes and will then tell his party to back it, saying that his party forced the Tories into changing the bill, but the main essence of the bill will remain and that's privatisation. I hope his party grows a back bone and tells him straight that they want nothing to do with it, hopefully then they will have a vote of no confidence in Clegg and someone will challenge him for the leadership. That person can then tell the Tories that his party want no more to do with them and we can have another election.

Kit Fang, what you are writing is absolute rubbish. The vast majority of all health people in the UK are against it and if Labour were telling lies then the Tories and Libdems would ensure that people knew about it. It's the Tories who are telling the lies and people like you will be just as responsible for the destruction of the NHS if this bill goes through. I would also suggest that those in the health industry know more about this bill than someone like you who has probably never even seen it. So read the latest comment below from a former health chief.

A health chief yesterday accused the Government of trying to gag him after he criticised the NHS reforms.

Prof John Ashton was given a warning letter and summoned to meet his boss after speaking out against the changes.

Cumbria’s director of public health claimed he was being bullied and demanded an apology from Health Secretary Andrew Lansley.

And the 64-year-old expert vowed to carry on fighting.

He said: “Trying to gag me at this stage in my career won’t have an effect. I have a duty to speak out on matters affecting public health.”

Prof Ashton spent six months in a group of experts looking at the impact of the Government proposals.

He added: “Most people, and most MPs, don’t understand the implications.

"What the Bill is really about is paving the way for private health insurance to carve up the health service.”

Do you have any theory what's in this invoice? it extremely is going to advise bigger taxes, almost in the present day. The tax money will circulate into the fee selection and all of us recognize from journey the Libs will spend it formerly 2014. Cuts against senior voters. Panels for OKing your well-being care no longer your Dr. the panel will make the remarkable determination. well-being care expenditures will initiate going up in some weeks if no longer days. The working classification is going to pay the costs for people who do no longer artwork, it extremely isn't any longer loose somebody will could desire to pay. Unions and Congress (and team) is exempt from the greater taxes. The decrease medicare so Dr gets even much less whilst treating the elderly and thus won't take greater sufferers and distinctive Drs are going to leave the U. S. or the medical container. well-being care will replace into rationed interior of a decade. those are scare tactic those are truths that are being held from the regularly occurring public. Why do no longer they inform you the reality approximately what's in the invoice? because of the fact which you may get mad. we've already talked and now you will see the outcomes and if we are no longer bankrupt in 10 years your taxes would be over 50%. you will no longer could desire to take my observe you will get to stay it for something of your existence.

Doctors' and nurses' unions mostly agree that the health bill's aims are good, but that these have got lost in the various tweakings and changes, making it a monster to implement and introduce. Given that fact, I think the bill should be withdrawn, totally re-written from scratch, and re-introduced. Labour not spreading lies and panic about the bill would also help - people should make decisions based on facts, not hysteria.

After all, it is undeniable that something needs to be done about the NHS. What's better, proposals that may not work totally, but will at least in part improve the NHS, or do nothing? Doing nothing will ensure that the NHS doesn't exist in 10 years time - at the moment it's just a disgrace, stuck in the 80s and run by managers who wouldn't know a bandage from a blood sample.

I don't know anything about the new proposals, I have never seen them explained in a newspaper, or on TV, and I don't know anybody who knows anything about them either. I do remember reading a few years that there were more managers than beds in the NHS. Is it safe to assume that the problem has been resolved, and no more improvements can be made?

DC has some sort of political suicide mission. The health bill should be dropped.

It SHOULD be abandoned totally. But, unfortunately it won't be.

The Tories are determined as hell to push this through & break up the NHS once & for all.

Cameron will never have any regrets about anything.

He is totally immune to any human or public feeling at all.

In a superpower, every citizen has the right to expect his/her health is of vital concern of the Nation. Politicians are in charge of that responsibility as they are of ensuring the safety of every citizen. If politicans can't face up to it, they are useless and must be replaced.

Theirs probably too many pharmaceutical companies given too much money backing this gov. for it to be scrapped. RIP NHS
