Government to Launch a 'National Conversation' on the Future of the NHS

A national consultation about the future of the NHS is being launched today. Patients and health professionals are invited to have their say on how to transform the service over the next decade.
The 10-year plan to overhaul the NHS will begin with new laws introduced this week to make patient medical records available across all trusts in England.

The only problem with a ten year plan is they have been saying that for at least 40 years that I know of

[@davidgreen635]

Correct assessment, we have all heard these promise many times before. We are looking to see what they can do for us now. Not what they can do for us many years in the future. It's pure electioneering, and nothing else. Jam tomorrow, but now we have (The Electorate) to put up with pork drippings.

Diet, nutrition and physical activity are of course so so important and are the things that all individuals can control for themselves. But not the only factor. Mental wellbeing including our family lives and social lives contribute to our bodies wellbeing. Our work lives are important - who here actually feels like they have a meaningful job, or even any job security? Environmental contamination like tap water full of chemicals, micro plastics and all of the chemicals we spray on our foods contribute. Smoking is really not a problem. It's a bit like the ICE ban for cars... Because we see it we assume it's the main problem. The quality of life in the UK is on a sharp decline and has been for 10 or 20 years. This is probably the biggest factor in the declining health of the nation. People are fed up, have no motivation or no spiritual grounding.

Good points. Children have to be properly educated.

[@Beautycomesoutofashes]

Smoking absolutely is a problem. My grandmother died at 65 of second hand lung cancer and I believe it was because her husband smoked 20-40 a day for decades around her. It was never confirmed but she never smoked at all. They were born and lived in Sudan.

Biggest problem process food ban ..have this rich ppl understand the price of healthy food for many that can not afford because is more expensive

[@alisdairmclean8605]

All school children should be taught basic nutrition and cooking. Hopefully it would make them 'food literate'.

[@92fc]

Banning smoking will just mean it will be smuggled into the country like drugs

[@mikemines2931]

No treatment if not paid in for ten years.

[@sharonsmith381]

Why don't you ban people from smoking outside hospital doors and when you go shopping, you have to walk through the disgusting smoke

Love these segments ❤ great to watch every morning

Can't ban processed food because it will slow the economy down plus many other reasons

[@rogerhunt3255]

Oh how wonderful a consultation that'll fix everything

[@jamesgilheany9624]

Banning smoking indoors had no impact - in fact, smoking-related cancers are now higher than in 2000.

[@garysmith4717]

Actually eating & kving healthy is EXPENSIVE! we know what we should do, and so do the big corporations and they make you pay for it, hence why our health is deteriorating as living expenses rise!

Child maintenance service and Emma days action of using it are the reasons her life was ended.

[@alansharman3644]

Anyone on benefits will lose the maintenance payments to the dwp if they have to stay on benefits no matter how little they need. So the child will see none of the benefit and so the one parent family will be no better off and the dwp will be quids in. Saving money for the government is the only goal while keeping every "single" parent poor as a consequence.

[@philarthur2777]

Launching a "National Conversation" is just a way to pretend that you're actually going to do something about the NHS. Politicians are very good at talking, and very poor at actually doing anything.

[@chadimirputin2282]

Privatisation incoming! Hope you are all prepared for billed doctors appointments, billed operations and pay at the door emergency treatments. 😂

[@mikemines2931]

You get insurance! I couldn't when I started work in 1962 because there was no way out of the NI scam and I couldn't afford both on a £1.50 a week apprentice wage.

@@mikemines2931 That's fine until you get Cancer and they raise the premiums so you can no longer afford to pay...after all there's no profit in losers. And then you go to renew you travel insrance and they turn you down. Win win for the insurance companies .Yes this happened to me

[@scottwales9178]

​@@mikemines2931 Yes totally agree. Insurance works really well in America. It's easily affordable and people always get the treatment they need! I don't know why people are worried.

[@chadimirputin2282]

@scottwales9178 people already pay for the NHS as a service through taxes, if you need to go the insurance route then they need to stop taxing taxpayers for a service they aren't using.

@@Crouchy232323 Ashworth, who was involved with Labour’s preparations for government as well as its attack operation against the Conservatives, will now helm Labour Together.

It is NOT cheaper to eat processed food. There is nothing that proves that to be the case.

Pretty well everything we buy is processed. Bead for example, margerine speads, cheap cheese, sausages, bacon the list is endless .In fact all the cheap staples that many poor families rely upon
