That sounds like a slippery slope argument. You might as well worry about the privatization of the NHS next. With this type of approach, arguments degenerate into political partisan rhetoric and achieve nothing.
- noir_lord 11y agoShrugs, in theory you could apply slippery slope argument to just about any conjecture on what will happen next. However this Government has a track record of (badly) privatizing things and a fairly clear ideological bent.
- DanBC 11y ago> You might as well worry about the privatization of the NHS next. There's quite a lot of private provision already in the NHS. Forensic Mental Health Units tend to be privately run hospitals, especially the medium and high secure units. There's a few privately run in-patient units treating eating disorder (especially for children). Drug and alcohol rehab is often provided by 3rd sector groups. It's all free at the point of delivery, and paid for by the NHS, but there's plenty of private provision within the NHS already and it's only going to grow.
