Ed Miliband is an economic illiterate because to just get approval for a new drug can take a minimum of £1.5 million gbp in testing, clinical trials and monitoring of side effects.
Profit from ongoing activities is what funds that development and that profit cannot be capped at 5% as Miliband suggests although some members of the public may be stupid enough to believe him.
Dr Alf is not the only one concerned about the NHS which despite being the largest employer in Europe is responsible for 120,000 deaths a year through botched operations, with GPs accountable foe 70,000 deaths a year through misdiagnosis and it employs 225% more managers than it needs to whilst delivering the worst cancer treatment outcomes in Western Europe barring Greece.
The NHS and its alter ego, local authority funded Adult Social Care, is an anachronism that belongs in a history book along with incompetent people like Ed Miliband who is not competent to run a whelk stall let alone a country.
I can understand why the Bilderbergers wanted someone malleable and out of touch as their placeman but dumbing down the Prime Ministership can, in a dangerous and expensive world ,only be carried so far.
