I paid for a major op last year. The wait was a year or more but considered urgent and I was in a lot of pain. In my mind I was fortunate enough to be able to afford it and that gave my place to another who couldn't and took me off the list. I had my op within a fortnight.

Is that 2 tier? I guess it is but life is 2 tier or more no matter what area of life we look at. I don't believe Starmer and the dead look behind his eyes, suggests that he doesn't have a lot in the way of empathy. I guess the real question for him would be if you were in desperate need and not in Westminster with the favourable left wing hospital treatment proffered to MPs, would you be prepared to wait in pain etc? He spoke of his mother's reliance on the NHS but his notions are outdated when compared to the current disorganised profligate NHS. Perhaps he should have an in depth chat with his wife about her job may she could enlighten the fool.
Not a fan then:D

In the leaders debate the other night Starmer and Sunak were asked if a family member was in need of an operation and was on a NHS waiting list would you pay to go private .
Sunak was a clear Yes I would pay, Starmer was an adamant NO saying he was NHS through and through . He came across to me like a Jehovah witness ,he would let his child suffer for his radical socialist beliefs .

If Ive got the cash Im going private anytime I can regardless of waiting lists so Im with Sunak on this as I think many of us would be .

Starmer is a weirdo lefty who I think could easily be dragged into the loony tune world inhabited by his deputy

But anyway are you paying or not ?
I have private medical insurance through my company, and when I had my ruptured appendix in Canada I had remedial work done when I got back to the U.K. Work that had an 18 week waiting list on the NHS. 
Starmer is either and idiot or a liar. 
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.
