NHS: Where Even the Insiders Die on Waiting Lists

A former NHS director has died after spending 9 months on a medical waiting list. Let nobody say that the NHS gives unequal treatment to Britons. Here is irrefutable proof that all NHS victims customers are given equally shitty service:

A former NHS director died after waiting for nine months for an operation - at her own hospital.

Margaret Hutchon, a former mayor, had been waiting since last June for a follow-up stomach operation at Broomfield Hospital in Chelmsford, Essex.

This is typical in Canada as well, although many Canadians in the same situation have a closer place to go in order to get treatment: the US. Until ObamaCare eviscerates that as well.

Very true, Chris. In fact, a prominent Canadian politician recently got medical treatment in the US. When questioned, they said something like "my body, my business." Oh, hilarious!
