Tory Lies and the NHS

The Tory strategy of privatising the NHS via stealth, is crude, arrogant and obvious. They understand that the NHS is loved and revered by the British public and it is one of the greatest institutions the world has ever seen. That it was conceived and established by Labour, sticks in the Tory craw to this very day.

So they have embarked on a smear campaign to undermine the NHS in the eyes of the public in the same way they have attempted to stigmatise people claiming benefits, in the hope the public will turn against the NHS in the same way.

The Tory’s are aware that there is a large minority of the public who will fall for the negative campaign tactics they use, because there is a large minority of the public who are stupid and incredibly imbecilic. However, unfortunately for the Tory’s, there is an even larger majority who cherish the NHS and are fully aware that the Tory aim is to sell of the NHS and install a health system that is no longer free to all at the point of access, and will enable their business buddies and old school chums to cash in through private healthcare and health insurances companies, leaving a large minority of the population unable to access any form of health care at all.

The Tory’s aim is not only ideological but also financially driven. You only have to look at the members interests to see how many MP’s have interests in private health care companies at the moment, and this will grow as they press on with their ideologically driven restructuring of the NHS.

The NHS scandals that have been uncovered, cannot be dismissed; they are truly shocking and disgraceful. There has undoubtedly been a culture, that has developed over the last thirty years, where the focus on empathy and compassion has been shoe horned out of the way and been replaced by an ethos of professional self preservation. Instead of looking after the patients interests the nursing and management staff have been more concerned with looking after their own. That must be reversed.  

 However,the Tory tactics have been disgusting. The lies and spin they have used, in an attempt to scaremonger, around the Sir Bruce Keogh report, have been a disgrace. Nowhere in the report did Keogh mention that 13000 excess deaths had occurred, forcing Keogh to refute the Tory claims but also point out that Labour had taken steps to remedy the situation. Steps that came to a crunching halt when the Tory’s came into office.

 Also reports have come to light that the lobbying firm, Crosby Textor, founded by the main Tory strategist for the 2015 Election,, Lynton Crosby ( The Lizard of Oz), has been advising private healthcare companies on ways to ‘take advantage of NHS failings’. These examples demonstrate how the Tory’s will happily lie and perpetrate falsehoods without shame.

Jeremy Hunt who as Minister for Health also holds the position within the government, as ‘Minister for Murdoch’, has attempted to portray himself as the ‘patients champion’ and, along with Cameron has persistently tried to undermine the strong credentials labour has on the NHS. They know that in the eyes of the public, the NHS is, and will always be, safe in the hands of Labour (they created it) and the public equally understand that the Tory’s were against the creation of the NHS and that they would gladly convert it to a private insurance model at the drop of the hat. The Tory hatred of the NHS is basic. They object to paying, through their taxes, for poor people to receive free healthcare. It really is that simple.

Since the introduction of the NHS, 65 years ago, the pattern has remained the same. Labour governments invest in the NHS and Tory governments strip cost’s out, and are always looking at the long term objective of privatising it. That is their wet dream.

The public need to wake up before the mendacious Tory’s realise it.

Royal Baby.

Why has Kate Middleton been booked into a private hospital wing? What’s wrong with NHS staff? After all, we’re paying for it.

If they had been attacks on churches we would have been knee deep in moral indignation and fury.
