Even if you are wealthy enough to afford 100% private healthcare if you're a decent human being you would still be strongly against ever scrapping the NHS because of the devastating effect it would have on those who need it the most. The elderly, people with Mental Health problems, the unemployed and anyone who can't afford to shell out possibly tens/hundreds of thousands of pounds when they need an operation or become seriously ill.
Sadly the droves who are preparing to vote Conservative in the upcoming election seem to be missing the fact that there's nothing the tories would love more than to scrap the NHS.
