The Bunker – News without the nonsense

The NHS is 75 years old – will it make 80?


Listen Later

The NHS was formed 75 years ago. As it celebrates its diamond anniversary, the service seems to be under more pressure than ever. Andrew Harrison is joined by Roy Lilley to celebrate the 75th birthday of the NHS and to ask, will it make it to 80? 

  • “The NHS is knackered isn’t it? Nobody can blame staff for wanting to leave.”
  • “If we leave the NHS to get on with the job, it will roll up its sleeves and deliver.”
  • “Virgin tried to come in and run the NHS like an airport, where are they now?”
