    No, your statement was indicating that universal healthcare was failing. It isn’t and has been successful in the UK for over 70 years.

    When you say universal healthcare in the UK is failing with no additional context you are using the conservative rhetoric, which is damaging.

    It’s like if you failed an exam because your class funding was cut to only give teachers half as much time to teach, then you claimed that education doesn’t work.

    If we agree with each other on the broader points, then that’s great.

      No it’s like claiming state funded education system is failing, not education doesnt work as a whole, your reply is ambiguous and could be understood as the latter. Healthcare categorically works and no-one can deny that.

      Healthcare in UK has consistently been defunded year on year, it is failing slowly due to the population increase, increase testing and diagnosis along with population density issues in cities during this reduction of budgets. A measurable consequence of these factors are increased refferal wait times and suicides for healthcare professionals, both at their highest levels. This can be solved with money and good management.

      I still dont understand how you can’t see we are aggressively agreeing.
