Frankly I don't care whether the private or public sector run it, as long as we get better value for money, and provided that it remains free at the point of delivery.

Why does anyone care so much who runs the NHS? It's a ridiculous debate, given the obvious inefficiency that we have to contend with while it remains as it is.
PFI was a rebranding of the Conservative PPP scheme by the Labour Party. Both are costing us dearly but with an effective two-state system, both parties will be forgiven and re-elected. In fact, the same way that you seem to gloss over the Conservative Party's PPP suggests many have already forgiven the Conservative Party.

As long as there are muppets who will keep supporting labour it won't change because they just delude themselves that only the tories are a threat to the NHS.
What figures do you have to demonstrate your assertion?
