Ministers tell GPs to open all hours
« on: April 13, 2014, 06:31:10 PM »
Doctors will receive £50 million of funding so they can see patients seven days a week, under plans to be launched on Monday

Now this I am in favour of but fear it's the start of more privatisation of the NHS. Hope I'm wrong  :(

I don't think you are.

I recon this lot won't be happy until we're all working 7 days a week.
I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

Do we have enough GP's for this?
Even GP's will get tired and possibly more mistakes will be made.
I'm not completely sold on the 'internet' idea either
In theory it's a good idea but only if there enough GP's.
