Ooh well. They have a Starbucks.

Practically the cure of cancer. We've never had it so good.

I'd say the fact that the franchise shops set up in there are the only things you bother to list about this hospital either shows how bad things actually are or rather shows your complete disregard for the actual serious topic and are yet again taking the piss.

Just highlighting as if it needed it the absurdity of the claim public services are on their knees. I note the claimant has done a runner..

Lol

How does having a Starbucks in a hospital prove or add anything?

You're deliberately being facetious and you know it.

I didn't say it did I was just taken by its inclusion in such a smart new hospital.

In fact through my father's illness and death I was equally impressed by the NHS service. Just as I am by the childrens brand new academy and my other public services like the roads department during this cold spell

So, when in a debate about how effective our public services are you chose to commend them on a completely different company and their lovely coffee.

Forgive me if I don't find coffee and M&S sandwiches a convincing counter argument to the state of the NHS and how much has been taken from the disabled and vulnerable.

I'm glad your father was treated well in his final days. There's a hell of a lot of fantastic staff who do a great job. Making it all of the more shameful that the government are tying their hands behind their backs and trying to destroy it.

Lol, your posts are being absurd. So the winter crisis never happened, people don't wait for hours in a&e, beds are not in corridors, nursing posts are not unfilled, etc etc ad nauseam

Don't know about you, but I have a RL to lead as well as post on here to convince you to get in touch with reality which is quite a boring game, LT.
So fine, argue away that nhs and other services are thriving, not struggling. It's your reputation not mine.

I'm afraid you made a claim you can't back up and we all can see that. I provided a list of public services and so far you have not dealt with it save some generic statement about a part of the NHS?

hello! everybody! I'm so ashamed! LT asked me to prove public services are struggling and I can't be bothered! Which of course means they are not struggling and don't let anybody tell you otherwise and if you see any evidence of such struggles, remember, they don't exist!

Just kill me now, I can't stand this shame

There is no shame in being wrong, just in failure of admission.
