Assuming every trust sacked their managers at this apparently-standard £300k that everyone keeps spouting. There was 147 PCTs in the country, this would save a total of 44million, give or take. If you had any idea what a drop in the ocean for NHS funding that was, you would realise that the problem you all have with the ‘parasites’isn’t the problem.

The problem is a country full of fat, drinking smokers who don’t take enough care of themselves. But no, we’re not allowed to say it out loud.

The media can’t be seen to upset Joe Public. THEY MIGHT STOP PAYING THEM! Better just keep crying a feckin’river over managers being paid too much. That’ll fi it right up.

Oh, the bitter, means-tested irony.

If your relative lived till 90 instead of 92 because of an NHS decision I can understand why you’d feel upset. But death is part of life, and it has to be faced sometime, and perhaps you should focus on the fact that they lived to 90 instead of 70 with the help of lifelong free medicine.

Would have expected Guido to be at the forefront of efforts to publicly expose the opportunity costs and trade-offs involved in determining where best to invest the public’s money. The criteria NICE uses to make these decisions is published on their website – enabling a more informed debate about health and drugs spending than in the past, where often, the NHS was regarded as a bottomless pit.

What a load of b****ks
