@staringatclouds I offer volunteer IT support at my local community centre.
When it started up, it was partly funded by the #NHS. As part of the deal, we were supposed to promote the NHS app.
Nobody even asked about or seemed in any way interested in it.
No #PFI in Neighbourhood Health Services
We demand no “Public Private Partnership” (PFI) to finance Neighbourhood Health Centres
PFI's led to NHS paying up to 27x over for hospitals. Some #NHS Trusts STILL wasting 13% of their budgets on old PFI deals
Even the #Conservative government said ‘goodbye to PFI’ because it is bad value for money.

The ever-acerbic gadfly critic of “Silly Boy” Streeting’s nonsensical NHS “plans”, Roy Lilley, has just taken down Wes’ new bollocks plan!
“Standing at a podium speaking about vision without a plan is an hallucination. Describing a future with no way of building it, is a mirage. Without a road map, any plan is a dead“
… and
“A plan without a plan… is just a brochure”

As Roy Lilley (NHSmanagers.net) points out, Labour's new NHS plan has no detailed delivery plan.
As he says: 'nice plan but go away & come back with;
- A 2-year and 5-year Delivery Plan
- Concrete, funded milestones.
- Name accountable leads for each priority area.
- Align capital, workforce & digital investment plans.
- Annual progress reports to Parliament.
- Independent delivery oversight by the NAO or an NHS Transformation Board…
A plan without a plan… is just a brochure'!

That is bonkers, how can people hope to stay alive.
Asked my dad how he was for insulin yesterday.
Doesn't get out on his own these days.
He will give my sister a form with a request for a repeat prescription. She will drop it in a box for such requests in the doctors.
They will produce the paperwork for the prescription & send it to the local pharmacy of his choice. That pharmacy has a delivery service. They will fulfill the prescription and deliver it.
He will not pay a cent.
