NHS bashing is our national sport. Throw in noisy unions, elections (despite the idea of a Conservative government actually privatising the NHS being absurd), and pay comparisons to other countries that don't account for inflation, locuming, and private work - and here we are. Not to say it's the best and couldn't be better or anything, but I do think the discourse and perception is way out of proportion.
