I'm sure there's more.
Sorry back on topic.
Different departments are going to be fighting for an ever diminishing funding pot so I don't think the situation is going to get better.
In fact as the state is shrunk ever more I think it's going to get a whole lot worse.
Just before I was diagnosed diabetics got free foot care here ... not any longer.
I can't reach my feet to cut my nails or do anything else ... because of a lack of spinal flexibility.
I can't tie shoe laces .... I know many people have these problems through weight issues.
I'm lucky in that my wife can do all this stuff for me but without her I'd be paying through the nose or .... not bothering so much.

Not where I am.We're no longer entitled to see a podiatrist? I was going to ask for referral on friday..
they have already said that they will not touch the pensioners and as they collect 2/3 of all welfare payments where will the cuts come,now they have said child benefit is safe that means at least 75%of welfare is protected,so the cuts will have to be against the sick disabled and their carers,the vast majority of which are already highly stressed and suffering mental health problems.i suggest that if they do make these evil cuts we get together on the same day and take our loved ones to casualty and say you look after them we no longer can cope.if tens of thousands did this on mass they would be forced to back down or the nhs will be bankrupt in daysA further twelve billion pounds is promised to be cut from welfare but they refuse to say how and where this side of the election.
Don't you find that very strange and just a little disturbing?
I remember when politicians used to say vote for me and I'll set you free now it's vote for me and I promise to make you poorer!
We are as reliant on the system that exists as a baby on its mother.
Sorry I meant the entire system not just the health system.No this isn't all true. The persons with no critical illnesses can get health insurance and private medical care.
The only reason that Cameron relied upon the NHS for his childs health was because of no insurance for that child.
We're not all reliant upon the system. Most MP's etc will have private healthcare. My hubby a non diabetic has private healthcare to fix his ailments because he can... Because as yet he hasn't got a critical illness....
