Tories extend cuts to nurses’ bursaries in latest act of spite against the NHS

Last Updated: May 10, 2018By Tags: , , , , , ,

What did I tell you all yesterday, while you were all looking the other way and ignoring This Site?

I made it clear that Tories are vindictive by nature and would probably take the opportunity to replace one vindictive plan with something worse.

That is exactly what has happened.

Not only have they succeeded in defending their decision to scrap nurses’ bursaries – they have extended the cut.

And the NHS – a system whose winter crisis now seems certain to extend into the summer – will suffer.

    The Tories have hated the NHS since its inception in the 1940s. They hate the fact that working class people can obtain the best medical treatment, they would rather we died from treatable illnesses – which is what happened pre-NHS.

    It isn’t to spite the nhs, after all nurses are needed for private medicine and they all do the same training to register

    in the meantime they still employ so called health care professionals who carry out assessments on behalf of the dwp that are so wrong it is almost unbelievable and at the same time then send out a lovely little flyer trying to say come to our courses with open arms and we will fix you, the sad part being is the fix is the problem they caused in the first place, moral of the story never trust a tory

    Private health care for profit, catering to those who can afford it, is all the nasties care about.
