our NHS

[joebloggs]

Did you know that Richard Branson's Virgin Group, under Assura Medical, already operates more than 100 NHS services nationwide?
Services that range from community health and children’s social care centres, to diagnostic services such as radiology departments, as well as GP practices and
sexual health clinics.

yes I've seen that on tv, the reporter asked the patient if it bothered her that the gp was being paid by virgin, she said no..

the thing with private companies coming into the nhs they are there to make a profit, how can they make a profit without cuts compared to the nhs trust employing someone ?

all gp surgeries are owned by the partners, just as dentists are.
