“99% of dentists across the south-west aren’t accepting any new adult patients.”

Getting anything but emergency healthcare in the UK is nigh impossible for much of the country now, I’ve been on the waiting lists of all my local dentists for over 18 months.

This’ll get spread around as heavily as that misleading bread line photo from the USSR, right?

    the good old “starve the beast” strategy, but in this case starving the beast is honestly humane for the beast considering the kind of food it would get in the UK

    In Soviet Badcountry, resources and healthcare are so scarce that desperate people line up around the block in the hopes of seeing the one dentist.

    Another good reason for Scotland’s independence. Let England Americanize all they want, but not Scotland.

    It’ll be hilarious seeing some idiots be shocked that they have to fork over 100k pounds for having a kid, despite that being EXACTLY what they told Parliament what they wanted.

      Scotland had a chance to gain by ballot what most countries have had to gain through the blood of their people and they pissed it away. Now things are going to have to get really fucked up before they get another chance at the same.

    Good thing they’re expending tens of millions on round the clock care for a living fossil. He’s just divinely more entitled to Healthcare.

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance).
