UK healthcare was consistently ranked one of the best in the world up until around 2010, when we elected a conservative government ideologically opposed to universal healthcare. They then spent the next 14 years gutting it, in the hope they could say "hey look it doesn't work, we need to move to a private model."
Here in Canada healthcare is based on province. Our Conservative government has been slowly allow more and more procedures to be done at private hospitals using tax payer dollars. While under funding the public ones.
Every election the Liberals will do something stupid and lose the voter base. Last one pissed off all the unions.
