Agreed. In addition to that, private health insurance is extremely cheap in London compared to the USA, and you can see a GP or specialist the same day if you have this.
That doesn't mean it's not extremely unfair to those that can't afford private health insurance, as treatment should be needs based, not finance based, but it's also difficult to campaign against when you're a beneficiary of a broken system.
