I've never quite understood this memo since I was seventeen years old and experienced health care in other countries around the globe.

The problem isn't what people don't know, it's what they know that just ain't so.

The problem may lie deeper still. Perhaps these were people promoted beyond their abilities. I certainly saw a trend that way in the university world just before I reached retirement age. Jumped-up pen-pushers promoted to administrative seniority, because no academics wanted the job.

 

What is the background of the decision-makers who were found wanting ?

 

Were they tasked with something beyond their capabilities ?

 

Under what criteria were they appointed in the first place ?

 

What are the backgrounds of those who made the appointments ?

Questions I think we would all like answers to Dave.

Make it a keen organisation, privatise it.

 

 

where's me coat.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

It used to be. Doctors appointment next day, same day in pain. Now 2 weeks wait unless urgent, then same day but likely to be seen by a HCA first instead of a doctor. Blood test walk in, no appointment, my last one was a 4 day wait. Had my blood tests 3 months ago, still not been informed of results, despite asking 3 times. First time of asking was told,"don't worry, we'd of told you if anything was wrong" so you must be OK. Second time of asking, "the person that reads the blood tests is off, she'll be back soon". Third time of asking, "yes your results are in but only your doctor can give you the results, he's off sick and has been for a while but he'll send you the results when he returns". My response, "well I hope he doesn't die or I'll never find out". :(

Really. Do you think that there are many French or German patients lying in there hospital beds at this moment in time thinking "I wish to hell I was in the UK?"

 

I have an old friend in France who visited his GP complaining of chest pains. His GP examined him and sent him down the street a couple of blocks to the nearest cardiologist. The cardiologist examined him then called an ambulance to take him to the hospital. The next day he had a triple bypass. do you think this would happen in the UK?

 

The USA is going to lose out in comparison to just about any health service in Western Europe.
