For once I almost fully agree with your message (although not entirely with your expletives). The NHS has become the Covid Health Service. This total disregard from the media about what has happened is appalling especially since BJ has the temerity to claim success because covid-19 did not grind the health service to a halt. Well it has but not by overwhelming it. It is a sign that the government and the bosses of the NHS are totally unable to multitask or to see beyond their noses.
Unlike you however I think this is not because of the evil money grabbing GPs but is part of the general omnishambles that this government is. Or could this also be one of the ways to accelerate privatization of the NHS as the general population becomes disgruntled and the magic solution will of course be full privatization. Setting up services to fail is a well tried mechanism to do so.
