If only your first name were Chris instead of Almost.
On a more serious note, time to write to your MP, the health secretary, and your local health board. Get friends and family to do the same.
It's unlikely to change much, but it's better than doing nothing. Kick up a stink and something may change, do nothing and it never will.
The point of the NHS is healthcare, free at the point of service, for all. Not private healthcare for those who can afford it and barebones emergency care for the proles.
