Private health companies often use the same facilities and stuff as public health. It ends up basically paying to jump the queue. Also the private health companies take the low risk, glamorous stuff and leave the complex, high risk, unglamorous stuff to public health.

Oh I completely agree. Private and public funding options should be working in harmony, but private must be prevented from overreaching into the public sector

Doesn’t help that the Tories were “stressing” the NHS for years, which makes it harder for things to get back on track.
