Second Letter to Papers in 2 Days re NHS

Sent to: Independent, Guardian, Scotsman & Glasgow Herald 31.01.13

Dear Editor,

In the light of the fast-approaching demise of the NHS, why hasn't the Tory/LibDem Government admitted where they have spent, or plan to spend, the £500 million remaining in Treasury coffers, which I understand was clawed back from last year's NHS budget for England? Apparently, from the original £900 million they allowed £400 million to be "rolled over" into the budget for this year. However there seems to be a mystery concerning the remainder and my MP for one, hasn't answered my question about it.
Scots seem generally unperturbed by the Governments' ideological wrecking of the NHS because NHSiS is devolved; but ramifications of decisions made in Westminster are bound to be detrimental to our most precious Service throughout the UK.
We should be incandescent and shouting from the rooftops!

Yours sincerely,

Patricia M Farrington MBE
