Recently I have been confronted in the street by a large number of people in Bridport who are very unhappy with the way the NHS has responded to them, or family members.

Operations being cancelled more than twice than is common, operations being delayed due to administrative delays, not being able to get a doctor’s appointment, etc.

A large proportion of the disgruntled people were convinced that the NHS is being purposely run down, so that the Government can privatise it; is that true?

If it is privatised, how will the normal person, like myself, be able to afford medical care?
