if you are a Brit...
I shall do another post later on! *gasp* (that's to everyone, not just the Brits).

After the news today that the National Health Service is £512 million now in deficit (news story) - if you go to the BBC News homepage you can enter your post code and it will tell you about the NHS financial state of affairs in your area. Its also at here if they move the postcode search off the front page.

My local NHS financial info is here and I was shocked to find that in my local area, we are in surplus (e.g. in the green)! I was sure my area was massively in debt!

I do wonder if there is a point where you keep throwing money at something and its all being eaten up by bureaucracy! Why is no money trickling down to the places that need it!

That is my political health post of the week lol
