This is bonkers. My practice is short-staffed to the extent that pre-booked GP appts are 6 weeks away!

There are some areas this is so much worse & disproportionately affects areas of deprivation

Private equity is a horror story for the NHS – one fifth of budget goes to it.
Privatised services treat 10% of patients, 3% in 2011.
59,000 private contracts in the NHS.
30%-40% of money vanishes in profits, longer queues persist.
End privatisation.
