Honestly it’s gotten a LOT worse over the last 10-15 years, but it was pretty great especially during the Blair government.
Basically, the UK is fucked ever since David Cameron cut taxes and then was like “oh no we’ve got a massive deficit of the amount we cut taxes by, let’s impose austerity”. If you go to A&E now, you could be waiting up to 48 hours. Though I was seen in about 2/3 hours and out of hospital in about 5 hours when I broke a bone in my foot. That was just for an x-ray, and I was given a boot and crutches. But that was a weekday morning - if it had happened on a Friday night I’d have had a MUCH longer wait.
The NHS is underpaid and understaffed and getting an NHS dentist nowadays is next to impossible.
Yeah that sounds like shit. Just leave it to the conservatives to royally screw over an entire country by irresponsibly cutting taxes to benefit the rich.
