I think this one is the NHS itself. I liked my concept better though- Posters and billboards everywhere, with a stern looking ward sister, that said:

IS IT TERMINAL?

THEN FUCK OFF.

To be honest m8 i think it's quite resonable, regardless of who's behind it (who knows, it might actually be people). There's a happy medium for us to find between non-use and abuse. It could be made sense that the NHS is currently used by some as a trampoline rather than a safety net.

I for one have gone against the advice of NHS 111 and attended an ER when i thought i was having a heart attack. None of thier machines showed anything and the entire staff ignored me when i left - i suppose they're not used to people walking out by themselves. Anecdotal maybe, but their reaction was certainly frustrated and i've come away with more understanding of the situation than previously. I literally made them work, even taking their time from more important duties, for nothing but a sense of fear.

I remember the waiting room poster from 2005 with a lady with a zit on her nose saying

Horrific misunderstanding of public health issues. I find it kind of haunting this kind of rhetoric still resonates. It's not even anecdotal. The main problems of the NHS are caused by a combination of medical success (people living longer), policy failure (letting other services crumble), and a massive funding slowdown.

Tories. They want to blame the public for the NHS struggling.

We need to privatise healthcare for the over 70s.

I think they ought to teach basic diagnosis in schools alongside how public services work so that people can appreciate them as adults and use them correctly. People ought to be able to at least diagnose themselves and others to the extent that they should be able to decide whether to go to a doctor. And doctors also need to be able to appreciate that they're the ones whose job it is to decide whether someone needs to be seen by a doctor; regular people don't know. Needs to be met half way by both parties.

Of course the way things are going I wouldn't be surprised if there are any publicly owned industries in fifteen years, so what's the point?

Interesting idea, but I think this would be very limited in practice due to the state of schooling. I think public health info campaigns already do a decent job of getting people to look out for signs of serious conditions (e.g. stroke, measles). I guess some additional training on big killers and a little "what to do if" type flowchart could be a good addition to this.

Judging by that picture I'm sure we can save some money by reusing needles at least three times.

Twice. You can use it once, reuse it twice for a total of three uses.

Hardly a new idea, because loads of people already self-diagnose all the time with the help of Google and the Internet anyway.

They've already realised they're going to have to lower the salary floor on skilled worker visas to boost immigration.

It's almost like they don't want to ease the pressure on wages and upskill British workers at all, and everyone who voted Tory and Brexit because that's what they wanted to happen has been conned.

You wait though, this will be their downfall. Immigration is the political time bomb of our age. When people realise they've been had and that Brexit alone wasn't enough to stop it, that's when they're going to start turning to genuinely nationalist politics.

Reminds me of the famous "Now I'm not racist but" thread we posted from FB many years ago. It was back in the days where you could still scrape FB posts without much of an account, and I remember compiling a list of all the people who posted it... probably not the done thing now.
