UK Future Health Care: No More 5 Hour Waits On Freezing Pavements

A 95 year old frail old lady, in extreme pain from a broken hip and her 92 year old husband of 61 years (plus her devoted little dog by the looks) left waiting in the cold for FIVE FUCKING HOURS because she was “not a priority.” That is the depraved state of our ‘national health service’ today which spaffs millions on ensuring ‘diversity and equality’ within its ranks, but can’t get an ambulance to an extremely vulnerable old lady lying flat out on a freezing pavement in agony. I’ve had a bad night wrestling demons and was already in a dark mood before I saw this this morning. Also not improved by learning of the sad passing of prominent anti-lockdown campaigner and lawyer Anna de Buisseret. Now my mood is pitch black.

David Lovell, who saw the fall, was the first to call for an ambulance, staying with Winifred and Andrew for the five and a half hours.

He said: "I can't describe how cold it was, and as it got dark, the temperature dropped really quickly.

"She was lying on the cold pavement, and we couldn't move her because she was in huge amounts of pain."

Because of the way she fell, David and the others had to find a way to prop her head up, getting some shoe boxes from stall holders and a pillow from a pub.

Staff at Mountain Warehouse provided sleeping bags, and the charity shops gave blankets and hot water bottles.

Jennifer Baylis, who works at the Prama charity shop, helped throughout the day.

She said: "I can't tell you how upsetting it was, she actually said, 'I'm going to die here tonight'."

Jennifer said a number of people attempted to call an ambulance and explained that she was a vulnerable elderly person. However, they were given no time frame and were told she was not a priority.

The UK is no longer a first world civilised country where its citizens are valued and cared for by the state. It is a third world shithole where the state actually despises the residents and where the level of ‘care’ now extends into caring that we die promptly if we are no longer deemed ‘top priority’. A third world shithole where the DWP secretary gets paid £3500 from the taxpayer for heating her second home for a few months, but signs off on depriving millions of pensioners of a few hundred quid in winter fuel payments.

“I’m going to die here tonight,” Winifred said. No problem. Our politicians just voted for the second reading of the assisted dying (suicide) bill which looks set to become law, barring no major future objections from the House. Soon, if Winifred suffers another fall, and dials 999 to request a euthanasia team instead of emergency hospital admission, I bet they’ll be round in fucking minutes! Jesus, I swear, evil stalks this Sceptred Isle right now.
