The glories of socialised healthcare
How proud British taxpayers should be of this:
PATIENTS spent two days in “grotty” wards - after a hospital ran out of mops.
Cleaners at the Victoria Infirmary in Glasgow were left stunned after bosses told them of the shortage. And it took two working days for the hospital to replace all the mops.
…After replacement mops arrived on Thursday, a source revealed that hospital staff celebrated.
The insider revealed: “People were dancing around the boxes, singing and chanting, ‘We have mops.’ ” The source added: “No wonder our hospitals are riddled with MRSA superbugs and such like if they can’t get something as simple as this right.”
People are generally agreed on the fact that the government gets little right, and yet some of them are eager to give the state a monopoly on our health. It would be funny if it weren’t tragic.
