[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 751026, member: 30007"] I know there are different political points of view, but I don't believe the Conservatives or Labour are looking to shut down the NHS and take away what it is and what it does. I massively appreciate just how good it is. As [USER=113357]@Nyadach[/USER] says, as a T1 it is possibly the most amazing service to have there. We don't have to pay to be kept alive. As I've said in other threads, it is massively undervalued because no-one considers just what you get without having to pay. It's always a case of "Well the NHS didn't deliver x, y or Z for me", instead of "Wow, the NHS is there for when things go horribly wrong". I just don't think many people realise (especially those with chronic conditions) just how much we get for so little. Having lived in both France and the Netherlands, I appreciate the quality of the health systems, but when I compare it with what I get for free in the UK, I have no complaints. I consider that my National Insurance is my contribution to the NHS and that I get great value for money. And I would never, ever vote for the Labour party. [/QUOTE]
