"The NHS are seen as perfect by some"

I've never met anyone who thinks that the NHS is perfect - least of all anyone who has used it or anyone who works there.

Just read the comment further above to see that there are people who cannot stomach any criticism of it.

Many years ago now my sister turned down the chance to go to an international conference held in the Netherlands, when I asked why, she said it was because the NHS was the best in the world and had nothing to learn from other healthcare systems. I'm still stunned, and she still doesn't know anything about other healthcare systems.
