NHS

I have to say that the hospital in Peterborough is in financial melt down all thanks to a wonderful  PFI, at a fantastic cost to the people of Peterborough, the management can't manage the payments for this building, but that to me is of no matter, this came about by government ideas of the best way to go forward for the NHS, it has to be remembered that the money that built the hospital was money from a pension fund so it is of course expected that they get a fair return on their investment, but with the thought that if the now government have their way many services that are provided now will go to other hospitals, meaning that the patients in Peterborough will have to travel many miles to get treatment  it is not acceptable, people expect to receive treatment in their locality not many miles away, the cost implications I believe are no better by sending patients to different hospitals many miles away, treatment has to be paid for and in many cases so does the cost of transport come into play, it is going to be an unacceptable situation.
