#4 > The previous Labour administration vowed to reduce waiting times for treatment, and succeeded This is also a lie. There were waiting lists to get on measured waiting lists. Basically it was all fiddles, and it required a massive bureaucracy to keep the fiddles from being revealed. |

#1 allow private companies, charities and social enterprises to bid for contracts within the public health service. Privatization? |
