The House of Lords have voted for the NHS Bill clearing the way for the Government to privatise elements of the NHS and force Hospitals into unattainable levels of service. Funding will be choked off with demands for ever increasing care, only achievable by a reduction of services.
The Veterans already rely heavily on charities to provide the care they need and in the current economic climate that level of care is unsustainable. The Nation now turns it's back (through the Government) on those who have returned home with horrific mental issues, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is responsible for hundreds, if no thousands, of deaths in War Veterans.
Where do they turn now for help, is the Nation going to demand effective measures of it's Government for the care of those who gave so readily to defend the Nation. I fear not and this story, born in the pain of Veterans who take their own lives in despair, is set to continue.
