Tory Britain
Experienced it at first hand today, father in law terminally ill with prostate cancer that has spread to his bones. He has deteriorated over the weekend, literally takes three of us to get him out of the chair into a wheelchair to get him into the toilet, then rinse and repeat getting him back.
Tried to get a GP to see him today, they sent a Nurse Practitioner instead who reported back to the GP who rang for an ambulance. As it isn't classed as an emergency, told we would have to wait seven hours for one. OK we understand and reluctantly except that.
Eight hours later still no ambulance, so rang 999 to see what was happening, only to be told that due to an increased volume of calls and high number of emergencies they won't be able to send an ambulance at all.
I mean WTF, he needs to be assessed, unable to put him in a car and take him as his legs are a dead weight, all we have left is 111. Missus on the phone now to them but unable to get through, been on hold for over an hour
This country fucking stinks, I've always hated Tories, now I fucking detest them even more.
